hi there

just found your forum and thought it wouldn't be bad registering myself in here.

living in switzerland (europe), aged 34, owning my buell since about a year.

when i bought it, it was completely black, which i liked but i like it white. so i did some painting and brushing work and some other mods on airbox, handle bar amm.

it's not finished yet, there's much work to do within the next few months but i'd just like to show you my baby

hi pockets

the HID are Xenon lights, you can get them on ebay.

the headlight itself can be ordered in german shops, but that will not fit on the original back of the bike. this is a whole set, light with back ending for about 400 usd. if you're interested in this just pm me

el barto- HID (high intensity discharge) is the same as xenon. What we're wondering is what color Kelvin are they. Xenons come in various color ranges like 6000k, 8000k on up to 12000k.

Looks like a Term. Expensive can!

the HID is 10000 K, yes.

and i got a termignoni can. shot it on ebay for quite little money. sounds really great. as you probably don't know, we have some hard restrictions in europe concerning the loudness of a can. such as jardine are forbidden here. it has about 105db, only. but this is still to much for the police
