Thanks guys for the replies, its either going the color of the frame or staying black, no more red after fixing the tank i dont want to shoot red for a long long time.

Thanks for posting the pics; I've been considering that pan. I like it. I think the OEM one is just too small.

I have the TCS solo tail in black, and I'm going to do just what you did - put a black bellypan on the red bike. I like the black and red; having it red would just be too much. :)

Bike looks good! except for the bellypan :) I had the Powerbronze, and I got rid of it quickly... quality is poor and the two parts don't meet up properly (as shown on your first pic) and it looks chunky overall... I actually had to epoxy the 2 piece together as the gap I had was even bigger... but you get what you pay for, and Powerbronze is pretty cheap for sure (compared to other bellypans)!

Anyway, otherwise I like the bike :)

Puig bellypan FTW!!!!

Have the Powerbronze and had the same exact problem....they don't meet flush! I went as far to call them and they stated...."mmm...that is unusual....drill a hole to make it match"....WHAT? Drill a hole is their solution(?!?!??!?!?!:spank:) Anyway, kept it on.....and kept it black, but definately looking to upgrade to a full fairing or different pan. I ended up drilling a hole but it doesn't really match up correctly. You do get what you pay for, although paying $130 for two shi**y peices of plastic seemed like overpaying anyway.
Keep yours BLACK and I like the red screen....but get the seem fixed as mentioned above and it would be awesome. Love the bike man....looks great, especially the "BUELL" lights! :thumbup:

hey 27, where did or how did you do the blue cover up's, it looks great!:thumbup:

They are just end caps you can buy at Home Depot and paint blue....(or red if you like to go slow..... if you're referring to the blue circular hole covers) For some of the larger holes, if you go to Staples, they sell plastic office magnets. You get a bunch of different colors and sizes....I have a few red ones left over if you want? I took out the magnet, put a drop of clear silicone on the edge and plugged 'em in. They'll pop right out if need be.....:thumbup:

That looks hot and clean i'll be doing the same thing to hide the seam on mine
i had just put it on to see which direction im going to go with it, by leaving it black or painting it to match the frame, and guess what im still undecided :confused:. I love what you all have done with your bikes thanks for sharing i may have to borrow some of your guys idea's. OPDS were did you get the anodized bolts for around the engine im wanting to get some of those?
