    Its temporary for now. Some day I'll be able to collect all the CR parts again. Not really much out there for that style. I found some PUIG ones that were cool, getting them is just as hard as CR parts

    I really liked the firebolt front end. Any more pics of that setup?

    Sorry..nope. Computer crashed a while back and I have very few pics of relevance left on my phone. I Kevin at KD Fab make the brackets so I didn't have to cut up the firebolt fairing stay. Its all bolt on. I wanted to keep it this way since I change stuff so often lol. I'll probably be getting rid of that set up in the future as well as the Flexiglass fairings. I got s far as test fitting those and ordering about $100 worth of camlock fasteners and good old ADHD took me in another direction.

    recently got the part numbers for the front end of a CR and ran all the numbers by newcastlehd.com, minus all the hardware, the total was $380....headlight, windscreen, cluster surround plastic(dash board/ignition switch cover)...think I still have the list somewhere. the windscreen was about 70 bucks, the headlight is the most expensive of all the parts needed.

    I say firebolt front end, SOC lower fairing and an ebr tail section. Buell parts.net sells the cr headlight for 181. I ordered one earlier this year because I'm trying to retrofit projectors into the stock cr housing.

    Yeah I priced out the CR parts. Looking for some used stuff. I am a bit of a cheap bastard at times:D. A lighting or Ebr tail section would be cool. Has anyone done the mod yet? I purchased an aftermarket H4 led kit from RaceSport. I had to drill out the opening to accommodate the larger bulbs and trim the housing on the bulbs to make them fit. They seem a lot brighter than stock.

    I have seen some photos of an 1125 with an ebr tail on it. Supposed to be a direct bolt on. The dual bi zenon projectors seemed like a good idea but even with the morimoto matchbox 2.0 I have had to dremel the whole headlight. Now I am in the fiberglass stage, don't think it was worth it.
