I wanted that naked road racer look... The bike started as a XB12stt , I took off the mx type front fender and put a lower one that match the color of the air box. I them put numbers and ghost flames on the number plates and fly screen , changed the bars , they are now one inch lower and a inch wider, changed the grips to ones that fit my big hand better and the foot peg were change they are now one ince higher, I will put different tires on it when they need to be changed. I say I have the look I was going for .

Looks really good, man. Oddly enough it looks a lot like my B-King. which I took to Cape May, NJ and managed to not take a single picture of it on site.

Yeah, I'd say that was pretty odd.

i really like the looks of it, XB. most of the Buell's i see don't really catch my eye much but that is one sharp lookin ride you've set up for yourself.

It just needs two ion cannons sticking out of the back.

You need to get your eyes checked.

It is possible - I am getting older.

Both naked sport bikes,
Similar frame structure.
Big old mirrors sticking out from the top of the handlebars.
Swing arms are similarly structured.

Similar displacement.
Completely different mills.
Fake-"O Ring" air intakes on the sides of my bike. But if you stripped those off...

You'd get a bike that looks like the GSX 600:

Or like this by Gregg's Customs:

Of course all that gold kinda makes my head hurt or is it copper.
Gregg's Customs B-King

Of course he went all out and put a single-sided swing arm on the bike.

There nothing out there that looks like a Buell . look at the frame it the gas tank. and the swing arm is the oil tank.
