So after riding a 125cc Shadow for 9 years I was desperately looking to step up my biking game a notch, so when I saw an ad for a 1300 vtx nearby I figured it was worth a look! The test ride was short and sweet but once I had gotten over the size and weight of this thing I was sold, and soon after, so was the bike! That was nearly 3 years ago, and since then I've spent plenty of time googling various fixes and recommendations etc and usually end up getting pointed here... Thanks in part to opinons on here I took the plunge and bought some Cobra pipes which I love, and I get so many compliments on the sound and look. Last night the good people of the cafe also helped me decide to buy a MS batwing as the stealth screen my bike came with has pretty much had its day, so now I wait like an excited child for my early christmas present to arrive from the states! So yeah, hello from the UK, thanks for all your help so far and most likely for the future! Peace, Adam.:beer:
