Hello to everyone! I am a new member. I own a 2006 VTX 1300T. I am 42 and live in Torbay, Newfoundland, Canada. I am slowly trying to dress out my bike. So far I have added a new light bar to give me 2 extra lights and visability. Not sure what to add next. Any suggestions?

Welcome and congrates on your new X. Not sure what parts you are wanting to add but take a look around the Gallery or threads and look at all the different choices you can make. How about some pics of your T?

If you want some detailed reviews on accessories, take a look at www.cruisercustomizing.com (http://www.cruisercustomizing.com) check out members with your bike,they list accessories on their rides. Good place for ideas,along with costs and ease or difficulty of install.

+1 on what thundrhd wrote. Your seat and the sound. Check out meancitycycles.com for the seat mod. Not much money for the comfort of what you get. The clayton mod is free and gives the bike a very nice sound. Enjoy your bike and ride safe. Before you know it you'll be a chrom addict just like the rest of us. :D

Hi and welcome to the Cafe'... congrats on your new bike :-) One of the least expensive mods I've done and really enjoy are the Kury ISO grips and Throttle boss. Oh and the 4" Aeromach Risers made a huge difference in the handlebar comfort.

Now, did the Aeromach risers let you use the stock cap or did you have to use theirs? I have that chrome block with the "VTX" stamped cap, and want to keep it.

PS- Welcome ROBMAC!
