what is the coiled up copper tube in front? an oil cooler?

Yep. Little oil cooler. Was a bitch to make. But I like it.

I'm starting a buell xb bobber and was wondering what carb and intake do you use and also what ignition. I am still searching through the forum but got really interested in your build. thanks for your time

I've had a bendix and keihin on it and both sucked. Just bought an S&S super e, last week actually and so far it's amazing. Well worth the price. I have points ignition in it. Actually got a dyna s for Christmas and it was bad out of the box so it's on it's way back to dyna now. Runs great with points just takes some maintance.

Thank you. Bare knuckle choppers has an intake and s$s super e carb that I was looking at, I think it was $400 for the set up. I was also looking at msd ignition. (not sure if it's right for my set up) I will be working with Dr. Jim as he calls himself at cycle vision in san diego Ca for all my tuning once this thing gets close. I'm sure I will be asking alot more questions as I'm not a harley guy but a hot rodder and off road fabricator/ racer.

Thanks again

Wow. Haven't updated this in a while. Had some nice pictures taken last summer.

Built a shovelhead since as well. For my father in law.

Full thread on that
Shovelhead Forum

and here is where my buell is now. Completely stripped it and cut the frame in half. Hoping to be done by spring.

We moved since too. Way bigger garage.

Hey man bikes look awesome. Did you create your own mounts for the buell motor? I have my dads xb motor sitting on my bench that my dad left me after he passed and I've been wanting to build another bike with it but can't find any frames with those mounts. Any help would be great man thanks.
