To think I used to be good at this stuff at one point in time. I wish they would stick to a code version…sheesh. Well I think I got some below and for bigger pics just click on ’em.

April 7, 2009 at 11:27 am #17564smokeizfireParticipant….That Vulcan is nice lookin. Those pipes look like they shake the berries off the bushes.
April 8, 2009 at 11:53 pm #17624MunchParticipantThanks guys… I love the 900! I have a drivers back rest coming for my long haul run here soon.
Smoke you would be surprised how those pipes are… at idle you can still hold a normal conversation without having to yell over it…. get into her though and yea…. you can definitely wake the neighbors.April 9, 2009 at 1:33 am #17630dcJohnParticipantThat’s a mighty purty bike alright.
April 13, 2009 at 3:14 pm #17719Jay TParticipantLucky you. You won’t be spending your time and money wrenching while you should be riding. She is pretty and I like the luggage layout. While you are out starting your riding day, I will be in the garage adjusting, checking, tightening and Loctiting my old HD, THEN I can get out and ride. Almost takes all of the joy out of riding (notice I said almost). Enjoy your riding season.
July 22, 2009 at 3:38 am #20854MunchParticipantWell got some upgrades on the V900 now. Will have to try and get some pics tomorrow while at work.
New:
Drivers back rest….. definitely a good upgrade for longer rides.
Scootworks Phat Risers…..1″ rise over stock and 2″ pull back more then stock…best upgrade yet.. truly turning her into my La-Z-boy bike.
Kuryaken ISO grips…. not convinced on this one, but the cosmetics look good anyways.
oh yea and debaffled the OEM pipes…. has a definite growl and gets peoples attention quick! DMV has already tried to tell me it wouldn’t pass inspections… til I pointed out that their regulation are only in regard to emissions, and my cat converter is still in there…just the noise baffles are gone… they left it alone.July 25, 2009 at 1:13 am #20923okcponyParticipantI really do like that blue with black paint combo. I kinda looked for that when I was bike shopping but no such luck. Guess that shouldn’t be a determining factor when making a purchase like that, but I knew I didn’t want a solid black bike. I can’t say that I like those Nightsters at all.
July 25, 2009 at 1:20 am #20925MunchParticipantty … I took new pics…guess I need to up load em huh…. maybe tonight
September 12, 2009 at 11:48 pm #22318MunchParticipantBefore!!!!!
NOW
September 13, 2009 at 8:03 am #22323chipshotParticipantHi Munch, how do you like those Kuryaken ISO grips? They look really nice.
Also, how long did it take you to de-baffle the pipes?
September 13, 2009 at 12:42 pm #22324MunchParticipantAs far as the ISO’s go…. I could take em or leave em as far as function.. for looks they do dress up the bike.
For the de-baffle It depends on the tools you have on how long it takes. I would suggest going in stages though as you go. Start with maybe 4 holes in the first plate and run it around town to see if you like…then work your way up. The more holes the louder and deeper it gets. I eventually took all mine out. Which a by product some don’t like is the “backfire” popping on deceleration. Me I like it, but to get rid of it is fairly easy to.September 14, 2009 at 3:46 am #22334owlieParticipantMunch, that is one sexy looking bike.
