Batty's L3 BEE
#1
Just had a brain fart and realised all my stuff I was posting on my new ride thread probably should have been put here, so.......

will do a quick over view of what has happened so far since I got my bike and finish with today's addition PLUS a fitment adjustment idea I have used in that famous middle infill panel LOL

so...

I picked up my new bike with ZERO on the clock.. damn I loved that

rear hangers changing colour (see how this looks Wardy)

so far teh change of colour has cost me $20... $15 for some spray etch primer and $5 for some spray enamel satin black. Not 100% happy with the satin black so I am going to cover with gloss clear which should give me an extra protection....

Looking good batty. I really like the rear hanger color change. Yoshi's look great also.
I went for a quick ride with Huls today. He has 4-1 R77, I have 2 R77 slip ons. It was good hearing the sound difference. Mine was bassier and his was more high pitch.

What brand is the double bubble screen?

screen is a simple fleabay item http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/221265687308?...1439.l2649 as it's an old and sold listing not sure if link will work. Try 48express-au shop as they are who I got it from..
cheers

also if i can get the hangers to match the frame right then I am looking at colour changing the OEM rearsets and putting them back on... might see if i can get some adjustable pegs or pegs made with an offset to suit my riding style

Yeah I'm trying to find some adjustable foot pegs but keeping original rearsets. I think I saw somewhere Buell pegs are lower?

Forgot to mention.....
With the rear cowling off again I swapped the hollow rear subframe bolts for some solid Hi tensile bolts....
No more worries over rear frame failing
