The Blue Collar kits are cool, but then you will have a bike that looks like any other V Star

I have a 1100 myself, have done alot to it, thebest thing to do is just start tearing into it and ride it alot, youll figure it out. There is alot out there for these bikes, just gotta wade through all the bolt on shit first![IMG]DSCF7865a[/IMG]

Not really a bobber. More of a lead sled.

Now this is my kind of thread. XS650 are way cool but impossible to find. I believe XVS650 are the next bikes to chop.
