Hi guys,
i'm here to introduce to all of you my Ghost Ride!
still not finish yet, needs a couple of jobs done before Daytona!
i've just powder coated the front pulley (here in the pics is gold-yellow) in the same red of the bike, now i need to chrome the calipers and maybe also the entire frame!
will get back my bike mon and promise you more new pics, for the moment look here!!
gonna also make a new seat-cover with flames and skulls in real leather.
it has Micron full exhaust system, K&N air filter, open airbox by ASP, ECM remapped with Dyrect Link by Technoresearch, the bike has now 100 clean Hp on the Dyno and runs fenomenal!
more also 1 year of works, powder coatings, chromes, aftermarket parts from all over the world, whole nights spent in front of the computer looking for parts to finalize my project, hope you guys will enjoy!
will post soon new updated pics...
take care!
ooops, forgot, the orange monster you see next to her is her boyfriend, my Brutale, my other baby, but still nothing compare to my Ghost-Ride!!!!!!

Looks freakin' sweet! What steps are necessary to airbrush on the transluscent plastic? Did you clear over it?
Thanks

The sprocket is a, I believe, obsolete factory Buell accessory...

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!! the front pulley cover comes from italy, from Free Spirits (www.freespirits.it or.com, i don't remember very well).
the primary covers are the originals polished and chromed.
but my favorit is the timing cover, that skull with the rubys in the eyes is sick!!!!!!!!

Woah!! That is a sick ride! Big ups! I'm thinking of changing the timing cover to the HD (Sportster) "Willie" skull, I've noticed that those aren't screws but more of a pull pin, is that right? Thanks in advance.
*By the way I'm new, this is a cool forum, didn't think many folks were into Buells.

yes you can fit the Sportster timing cover, is exactly the same size.
i had that one before, then i found this one and i thought was more appropriate for my bike so i changed it!

you will need a drill to take them off and a special tool to put back new ones...
is easy but you need the right tools!

the seat cover comes from Italy, by Granucci selle.
the paint job was made from a guy here in Florida, he won several prizes on real flames, if you are from around here (Miami) i can give you the number...

i know they make seat covers for all bikes, in several different colors, so i don't see why not.
try to get in touch with them and see what they say, in case i can help you, i'm italian and i have friends that work with Granucci.
