Favorite Bike on this forum

[dragbikezx07]

To me there is one bike on this forum that I dream of having and I bet alot of guys may feel this same way about this bike or a different bike. My props are going out to nitto12ss. Everytime I see a picture of his bike, I want it more and more. What is everyone elses dream bike from this forum????

[Jabaniz]

i think my favorite is the firebolt with an ss swing arm, i think its xtremelow

[03Firebolt9R]

I think Keppi's bike is killer...

Keppi's bike (http://www.buellxb.com/Buell-XB-Forum/Buell-Lightning-XB12S-XB12Ss-CityX-XB12Scg/sneek-preview-)

[browland]

[Supermanrider]

So are you wanting a bike of a month poll?

[konarider94]

[dallasb]

[Nuage420b]

Lol I'm with you BadDad, Mine is my favorite. BUT if weren't for TypeOne I wouldn't own a lightning.

[Nuage420b]

I just noticed this in Keppi's string, but has anyone ever notices his front wheel plastics? I wonder if he fabricated something out of metal or is he drilled and painted the plastics.

Cant speak for the other guys but mine gets ridden too, no (all show no go) here.

[ArmyMP09]

That turbo one is awsome. I do love the cornering picture, probably my favorite picture one here I've seen so far.

[firebolt020283]

I would have to throw xtreamlow's bike in the hat though I thought it was cooler when it had the firebolt tail on it still but it still looks great![up]

[hula Buell]

Can I vote for different parts of different bikes?Like the polished pipes or custom paint or exhaust system.

[nativeXb12Rbuell]

all of of them , but top ones would be mine , xtremelow , the lighting with the military theme(pic next to old planes i think), and of course Erik Buell Racing 1190RR got to love that bike so sweet.

[dustin_usmc1]

My favorites are EricZ's , Typeone's and this one. Love this paint and the seat nice touch, BUELL instead of Gulf. Only thing missing is the twin horse shoe's.http://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/3201_20100401041126_L.jpg

[browland]

wow I think thats maybe the first time I've seen gator's damn that thing is sexy

[dustin_usmc1]

I still love my old paint job. Thinking of getting a spare set of plastics and painting them so I can switch between the two.

[Philgood]

Hi Guys..I like the airbox cut out in the shape of the word Buell..are these available online or are they homemade mods?

Thanks![up]

[dustin_usmc1]

Welcome to the Forum and Family Philgood!! Those cutouts are homemade mods.

[nitto12ss]

Home made, Gatorbuell was the first to do it as far as I know and I saw his bike and decided to give it a shot. It took me about 8 hours to complete mine with a dremel, file, sand paper and a razor.

[BryD959]

There are so many awesome bikes on this forum. All original and unique customizing. Buell Riders are the ****!

Heres mine

I like this bike, it looks sick! Plus he's got his girls bike too... lucky guy! I want a bike for my wife.

[303xb]

bryD i love it. where'd you get the tail? hard to install??

[meetch]

Big fan of LeFoxs XB.. simple and clean. minus the honkin' euro plate of course. haha
http://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/2644_20100401105057_L.jpg

[BryD959]

Thanks 303

heres where i got mine.

http://www.trojan-horse.co.uk/prods/243.html

madly over priced... but whatever, i wanted it. I know there are threads on here of people trying to make their own. very very simple install.

[1stxb9r]

there are so many awesome member bikes on this site it really is hard to choose just one. Typeone's bike is sooo clean, Keppi's has an awesome paint job, extreme's has that bike night drag look. just to tough.

[dave_xb12r]

We should do categories. Best paint, best mods, best unpainted color scheme, etc.

[Midnight82]

Dave - We also need "The Awesomest Bueller" Specific to awesomness, not riding.

[nitto12ss]

The winner's should be put on a Buell calendar, I know its been proposed before but maybe this time the plan could be seen through to fruition.

[Baal]

What saddle is that, nitto?

[nitto12ss]

Buell select seat, nothing special.

[xtremelow]

Keppi's bike for sure. Look at the rear swing arm and the time it took just to add a hole;)

http://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/520_20100401202009_L.jpg

Love my bike but he has so much more design, time, and money into his bike and the out come is just amazing.[up]



Nauge420b; that front fender you ask of is off Trojan-Horse.co.uk





Thanks for the props on my bike fellas

[kalifornia]

Evil mechanics[up]

[xtremelow]

I would like to actually see it finished before I judged it. I know he has a ton of work into it and some very clean cut ideas, but it is still under the knife.

Also as I told him a while back the front headlight fairing will make or break the entire bike, oh and as I asked him earlier this evening what about the rail gap from his tail lift.

[Philgood]

Nitto12ss or Gatorbuell...Goner have a go at cutting my airbox cover..Any tips on best way to do it? Did you guys use a template for the letters?

Thanks for the welcome!

thanks!

thanks!

When you pull the decals of it leaves a perfect outline of the letters. Just take your time and you should be fine.

And welcome to the forum. LOL

[Philgood]

Cool ..now where I did I put my Dremel??!![up][up]http://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/4621_20100223022437_L.jpg

[03xb]

I guess I should post some pics of mine. No one has seen mine yet and maybe a few of you might like it. And maybe not.

[yorkshirelad]

I think some points should be taken into account when choosing a "best bike". Budget,know how, expertise and facilities are just a few. Keppis is my favourite but has had a lot of time,money and specialist work done on it, which is of course needed to make a showwinner. However I think a clean,sorted and well looked after bike is to some as good as any custom bike.
Heres some updated pics of mine.

[pur pony]

I have to go with the turbo XB on the first page. Has always been my favorite, followed by Nitto12ss.

[firebolt020283]

york nice bike I am not sure witch is your most recent ones but i think it looks better with the black seat than the blue one.

[1stxb9r]

Yorkshirelad, those red wheels really set off the paint scheme.

[yorkshirelad]

The ones with the red wheels and black powdercoated seat rails are the most recent. The original amber wheels were ready for redoing and it took me ages to decide to change colour.

http://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/3688_20100402055739_L.jpg

[xtremelow]

Yorkshirelad, I agree but all in all Keppi's bike is amazing and if you are willing to put that amount of time, thought, and money onto something, IMO it doesn't really matter if you did every bit of work or not.

Many think I have dropped thousands and thousands into my bike but in tge reality of it I still have less into my bike than what a new Bolt would cost;)

[yorkshirelad]

Agreed xtreme,I was just saying ANY bike can look great to someone. I wasnt suggesting keppi did do all the work just saying that most people cant.
I have very little money in my bike too, I buy used parts or improvise. The change of colour on the wheels cost just £85 and in my opinion transforms the look of the bike for relatively little money.

[kalifornia]

I've seen forums, that have a way to tally votes. Might I humbly suggest someone get on that ****. I would also humbly suggest a yearly grand prize, including but not limited to a "three pack" of the winners choice of condoms, and a six pack of beer. Im gonna go watch porn now.

I think the point of this thread was simply to chose your favorite bike period. No considerations regarding time, money or resources available to the builder, just the finished product (if they are ever finished.LOL). Dont forget the more custom you get the more it becomes suited to YOUR taste, and sometimes it gets to the point where you might lose others interest. For instance on my bike I know Xtremelow feels that the steering damper subtracts to the look of my bike, and I personally think that Keppis bike would look better with a regular seat and side rails. Totally agree with you regarding a clean and sorted bike though.

[samiam901]

I think their all great bikes. Their all Buells arent they? I love how no two bikes on here look the same. Some my spend thousands of dollars and many hours and others my keep it simple and clean but thats what make our bikes so sweet. My vote is my own because its my bike and it looks the way I want it too.[up]

http://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/4336_20100329184509_L.jpg

[kalifornia]

I don't like your frame sticker so you don't get my vote

[Midnight82]

Im gonna go watch porn now.

German Sheizer porn?

[nitto12ss]

I don't like your frame sticker so you don't get my vote

I dont think he cares. LOL

[50dro]

How could your own not be your favorite?!?!?!?:D Here's the latest pic of mine:

http://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/3525_20100402204056_L.jpg

I will say though...Typeone's and Keppi's are pretty sweet machines!!

[303xb]

the superchaged black one is def the baddest ass bike, the mad max huge rear tire lightning, and samiam your's looks great minus the fram decal

[thunderstormgrowl]

Pez and Gator have a few that I really like looks wise, but the turbo buell is NASTY.

[samiam901]

I don't like your frame sticker so you don't get my vote

Didnt ask for it


I dont think he cares. LOL

Yep

[dave_xb12r]

Hey Kali where is your bike?

[firebolt020283]

Kali,

why are you always cracking on people with the matter decals? I personaly like them a lot and have a set sitting at my house waiting on me to put on my bike that matter Gave me which was so very cool of him.

[loose1]

I'd have to vote for mine too. Sorry:p

I will probably order a set for myself...and maybe for my friend just so we can have more bikes with them just to spite everyone who hates them. I do the same with vegetarians...for every animal they dont eat, I will eat three.

Why are you blabbing about **** no one cares about?

[firebolt020283]

I could be an A** hole right now and say something stupid right now or I could just say that once finished I think your bike would be my candidate for this section.

[motorforall]

thank you for these
you can see my blog:motorforall (http://motorforall.blogspot.com/)

[Drkside79]

Cant find a pic but BadS1 bike is wild

[rwubbens]

I loved the buell cut out when I first saw it on gatorbuell's bike, then on nitto's. I just got done cutting mine out.

When it comes to bikes its all nitto, gator, typeone, ericz havesome really sleek bikes that would get my vote.

But if you add in a photography twist to it I know we all love it when we see xtreme has a new pic

[kalifornia]

wait what? sorry im lost. my comment about samiams frame sticker was the factory sticker by the head, not the pegasus sticker. I already said what i think about pegasus decals im not a fan. big deal who cares what I think its just a decal. I like looking at your guys' bikes. I'll raz someone for fun once in awhile about an odd colored oil filter or something. but I dont believe anyone has taken offense at any of my statements, if so sorry. I would post a pic of my bike but it still looks like the other 282,473 pics of near stock buells on this site. When Im done I'll ask if you still want to see a pic dave.

[kalifornia]

this is what's on the bike now, call the stickers what you want.http://www.buellxb.com/buell_images/4305_20100405185058_L.jpg

[BPlass]

Might sound like a broken record if I said Xtremelow's bike. I would have to say either Typeone's lightning (I actually somewhat model my modifications on his) or GatorBuell's.

[Pockets]

03XB- What tail is that????

[redliner172]

It looks the same tail just a custom undertail maybe.

[jmcrutch]

Yeah 03XB, where did you get that tail piece?

[03xb]

I think I got it back in 04 and I don't think many were made. It's a Ilemberger carbon fiber undertail with an led brake light. I'll post up some better pics.
