  1. Are you still in the DC area? I am in DC hear Silver Spring and have a 97 with 21k miles that I hardly ever get to ride. It mostly just sits in my garage. It is not currently on the market, but may consider letting it go to a good owner. It is black with a full akraprovic exhaust, factory pro jet kit and a corbin gunfighter seat. I just had it serviced at Cycles of Silver Spring and had tune up including new brake pads, new pirelli angels. Nate in DC
  2. I am doing some updates to my 97 XX. I ordered and installed a smoked front light and I really like the look of the smoked front turn signals, but all that I see advertised are for 99 and newer. Are the lenses the same for the 97-98 models as the 99 and newer ones? Thanks! Nate in DC
  3. My bike tipped over in a windstorm and my fairing cracked. I have a replacement upper fairing but the tabs on the headlight housing are broken. I want to get a new housing and the shop quoted me about 300 bucks. I found some aftermarket ones on ebay for almost half that. Some had a nice smoke tint. Does anyone have any experience with these aftermarket assemblies or any other suggestions on where to get them? Thanks, Nate in DC
  4. THAT is the photo I was looking for! :icon_clap: That bike looks SWEET! What kind of paint did you use and what tail section is that? Regards! Nate
  5. You mean like this http://superblackbird.arnolddegraaf.nl/ima...R1100XX04_s.jpg This colour was available in Europe, UK and AUS in 2004 and possibly other years. From reports on the BIRD site in the UK there was a few problems with the paint showing rub marks, going shiny etc. :icon_think: I am thinking of somehing like that. I like the look of the paint on the Ducati Monster Dark
  6. Do you plan on doing it yourself or sending it out to a paing shop? Do you have any photos? What kind of prep did you do before painting and how durable is the Krylon paint? I dont mind taking on the project myself, but I dont want it to look like I did it at home. Nate
  7. I seem to remember seeing some photos of a BB painted flat black, but now cant find them. Does anyone have a link to the phohts? I am thinking of getting mine repainted that color. Any thoughts? Thanks! Nate in DC
  8. I had them on my VTR1000 and LOVED them! The sound was awsome. You can get them from devilbikes.com Nate in DC
  9. I have Devil high pipes on my 2000 SuperHawk. There is a photo of it on their website under customer pics gallery here: http://devilbikes.com/customer_pic_view.php?make=Honda Customer service was great and the pipes sound AWESOME! I would have put them on my XX, but it already had an Akra when I bought it. Regards, Nate in DC
  10. I have a 97 with the Factory PRo Jet kit and an Akra exhaust. I might get flammed for this, but I dont put anything in the tank during winter storage. It sits winters and starts right up each spring. I have never driven the FI XX, but I absolutely LOVE whe way mine runs. Throttle response is smooth and strong and I dont experience any flat spots. Wouldnt trade it for the world! Nate in DC
