Also looking forward to seeing the progress!
I've been working on a solo tail project using a chopped Lightning sub-frame and a Firebolt seat. The tail was never meant to go on the bike I've been using as a test mule. Instead it's meant to go on my next project, an XB Fighter.
I received the frame tonight. To get ideas flowing I installed my solo tail project and some parts I had laying in the attic. I have an idea where I'm going with this project. But some of both the major and minor decisions aren't completely made yet. I'll be hoping for the forum input along the way. It'll be fun to see how the bike ends up.
Also looking forward to seeing the progress!
I will have junk rails with good mounts next week, (rear pegs back broke off) I hope those rails were messed up before you hacked them off...
Remember you need a rear fender of some kind or **** gets thrown up on you by rear tire.
Rails I get will be off an 09 SCG so they are factory powder black
SEXT9 is that a factory white frame? I see the stickers near the head tube, if so what model was that?
It looks factory white to me. There's no marks where it's been masked around the stickers. It's from an 02 firebolt 9. I haven't seen many white ones either. I kinda hate to paint it.
wtf ya'll talkin about... as far as I know they never made a white frame xb and the xb's started in 03.
I know they started in 03. The frame says 02 on the side of it. I'll look closer tonight to see if it has been painted.
ok that makes sense about the date, build date...
Never seen one so that's why I was asking...wtf ya'll talkin about... as far as I know they never made a white frame xb and the xb's started in 03.
Edit:
May be to rare to paint brother... I'd ask EBR if they ever did a white frame and how much of a rarity it is. If someone has a white theme it could be a "holy grail" type of piece, you never know...
Is the frame even painted white??? Looks like factory silver to me...
