Hi folks! Am new here but I've loved Bullets since the early '90s. I've been obsessing over pics of a BAAK-modified Bullet 500. Can anyone tell me more about the components they used to modify this Bullet? It looks PERFECT to me.

Looks like a Harley Davidson silencer - sorry - muffler. The seat is one of our hosts' late 50s/early 60's reproduction Redditch pattern dual seats, possibly a custom exhaust pipe, rear number plate looks like it's off an earlier Bullet, universal stainless (or chrome?)mudguards.

Nothing to get too excited about!

Fork gaiters
Looks like they have used stainless cap head screws/bolts
Lucas replica rear light 70s pattern
Headlamp peak
Aftermarket rear shocks

Look like all off the shelf parts

Take care Dai

:shock:

Not even done anything mechanical to them by the looks of things, it's all cosmetics.

You could buy an original interceptor for that kind of money. A tidy one too, not a fixer-upper.

People are going to get really burned when it comes to reselling them customs usually make less than stock
Take my Harley I paid less for the bike than the bill's for the tuning work added up to let alone all the custom bits
First thing I did was pull the top end just to check it has been done right and to put in new gudgeon pin clips for piece of mind

Buy one of those and you will have a good looking bike
Park it outside the pub there's always the chance another exactly the same could park next to it !

Build your own for less and know hand on heart that it's yours

Or buy a customised bike cheap that you like then put your own spin on it make it yours

I think we have covered the bullet pictured.
Also it's odd that the OP hasn't been back on, if he/she comes back on I will apologise but I have a nagging feeling that this was a sales pitch

In grumpy mood Dai
