I've been fretting over the swing arm maintenance on my bike since 7500 miles (nearly 18k on the ticker now) and when I was gonna get it done. I checked with my local shop to ask how much they wanted to do the swing arm and driveshaft....well, their answer convinced me to do it myself ($400 -...
As promised, here is my Caddman Air Mod tutorial. I take no credit for thinking this up, nor do I take credit in figuring it out myself. The original instructions can be found at Gadget’s page here: http://www.gadgetjq.com/caddmankit.htm If you want to get straight to the install, skip the...
After getting aftermarket pipes on my bike and ditching the stock goat bag, I knew the next thing I needed to do was do something about that ugly rectifier. I could spend $100 on a chrome cover for it and add some more chrome to my bike, but I saw some pictures, and I thought it still looked out...

Well gents it's time for the maddness to begin! I have diligently spent this glorious monday off work and in the garage ripping the geep apart. the ol'girl is looking quite naked at the moment, with her farings rmoved, radiator gone and exhaust stripped from her chassis. during this winter the plan...

Well, I've talked to a few of you on here for help and inspiration so I thought I'd post some pictures. I decided to go all out and started bobbing the bike after riding it for a grand total of 10 miles. Here's a before pic and one of the license plate mount that I finished last night. Thanks, CJ
I'm desperately searching for a set of 2 into 1 header pipes with the collection chamber for my mean streak 1600. I want to put on a tailgunner exhaust as a 2 into 1, but everything I can find has the collection chamber as part of the muffler. Any Ideas???
Ok. Startin the thread a lil late in the build but better late than never right? Heres my 800 right after I bought her in used 2004. Did the basic airbox/re-jet/exhaust mods and was content for several years. Shes been good to me! Only problems I've had with her were caused by my own stupidity...
Ok I'm trying to relocate the plate and tail light. I've seen some expensive bracket and light kits chrome, shaped lights. Not really my style so I went looking and was given a link to some that are just right both in looks and price. However I started looking a little harder and notice that even...
I recently picked up a 1995 Vulcan 800. I've liked the look of the 800s for some time, and so here it is. These pics are close to how I received it (save the dead tach that I took off the bars and the color of the front fender and air scoop thing).

hey all... i've got my custom chopped up right now and am considering solo seat mount ideas. anyone ever do this or seen a seat mounted to the swingarm instead of making a bracket connected to the frame?? after cutting the struts off and cleaning it up, i have sat on the bike moving it...
Well I purchased myself a Fi2000R but I also wanted to change the intake too. Being that they start around $170.00 US, I decided to make my own. All the parts I purchased are new. K&N, Transdapt and Dayco are the companies I chose to use. All totaled $80.00 US. Check out my work in progress.
My buddy phil has had his engine changing the cam chains and valve shims and is finally starting to get it back together. This is his bike before. We got the engine in and are going to wire it as soon. Gettin rid of the huge harness that runs under the stock tank. Only two wires will running...
Was looking for a decent throttle lock. After reading all the reviews and available information, it seemed that they all performed about the same. The expensive model, while pleasing to the eye, had the same "quirks" as the cheaper Vista Cruise. Flip-a-Lever can no longer be found. I did not like...

Well I was told to post up pics of our little project, this is my 17 year old son's bike. We started with a pretty clean bike that ran good and he wanted to do it bratstyle(bobber with suspension). This is how we started with some struts to determine proper rear shock length, we decided on 11.5...
I am looking to buy a Vulcan 800 to make a bobber. I am not a handy guy at all, I am looking to buy the Blue Collar Bobbers Kit (so I look like I have a clue, yet I can't screw it up and I KNOW it will be worth the buy). So, here is my question: Can I buy a Vulcan 800 Custom and replace the little...
Had this bike for ahwile now. My first "build" on a motorcycle. Going for a Resto-Mod version. Little mix of modern street bike and cafe. Something different. It was in pretty good shape when I got it so it wont take much. What I did so far.... Sectioned the stock rear signals. Brought them...
Ive heard so many different things about rear tires on the stock rim and was wondering if anyone had a straight answer on how big of a back tire would really fit. ultimately I would like to put a 180 tire on it. My bike is now a hardtail so clearance is no issue. any help would be appreciated....
