Walk around review of my VTX 1300

Walk around review of my 2006 VXT 1300

[@elisandrotrevino2586]

Man that is one of the cleanest vtx 1300 I have ever seen. I had a 1300 and a 1800 but they didn't look that good. Congrats on your build!

[@BuildingFun]

Thank you!!

[@BuildingFun]

I wanna get an 1800 lol I hear they Are quick

[@elisandrotrevino2586]

They are very quick and that torque is amazing! I wish I was able to keep my 1800 but I sold to upgrade to another bike.

[@tatemcdaniel7043]

@@BuildingFun 2:33 what all went into getting the apes? I’ve looked everywhere and cannot find risers like that or apes that have the knurled spaced out to fit the risers. If you have a link or where you bought them would be a great help!

On an '07 VTX 1300. Yup been riding ever chance. Scoots looking slick, good job there.

[@lstruggy]

Beautiful bike bro! I think that might be the R version cause of the elongated fenders. I got gifted an 06 Vtx1300r blue w only 11k miles awesome condition my neighbor retired Air Force fella in his mid 60s not into riding anymore one day just gave her to me! I gotta get my motorcycle license first tho lol I have it listed here in Vegas for $4K I already got a potential buyer checking her out tomorw happy n sad that I can’t keep her part of me wants to keep her but I need the cash 😔

[@metricwrencher8702]

I think it is the S model based on rear tire has spokes. Unless he changed the rear rim also.

Dude, what are them handlebars called I have a 1800

[@ashleycomposano1901]

Thing is decent bud! Actually looking to do the same to my old man's 2002 vt750 ace. What size rotor did you use? Also would you happen to know if the ACE and the vtx have the same axle size?

[@mikeborrelli193]

My advice is don't sink money into a 750 ACE. You can find these VTX 1300s for between 3k to 4k and it's an infinitely better cruiser no matter what is done to that 750ACE.. Sell it for 2.5k and put that thousand dollars you would have spent towards a VTX..

[@B_Adventurous]

What size rotor and were you able to use the same caliper?

[@The1987outlaw]

What size front tire

[@donicesmith4518]

I did some work on my vtx I have the caliber covers how did you install them

[@BuildingFun]

Just double sided tape! Worked great for the last year but the rear one recently did fly off at some point lol could have easily been avoided by some sicone

[@jakewilker2895]

Fuckin night riderz baby I love it!

[@BuildingFun]

Yeee haw!!

[@muscleupdoleto]

How low can you go on the rear progressive shocks without bottoming out? I think the stock VTX 1300 rear shocks are about 12.5 inches, what size rear shocks are you using? I am really digging the lowered rear end look, but I was wondering do the rear shocks actually work being so short, or is your back taking all the impact from the road? Besides shorter shocks, are any other frame or fender braces modifications needed? And what happens when you put a second person in the back? Thanks for the answers in advance for the super loaded questions?

[@BuildingFun]

I’d have to get a measurement for ya on the actual length of them, but I’ve got the settings on them pretty low. If I hit a big bump you can feel it bottom out a little, or if I get a passenger I just twist the collar up a few notches and it makes enough spring pressure to stop it from bottoming it out. No modifications needed! I’m pretty sure they are standard lowering shocks for the vtx

[@BuildingFun]

They just naturally have a lot of room in the rear fender!

[@muscleupdoleto]

@@BuildingFun whenever you get the chance to measure them or remember website from where you got them please do share the info! 😂

[@muscleupdoleto]

@@BuildingFun Any chance I can get measurement for the rear shocks? I want to lower the rear end and go as low as possible. I have a vtx1300r , year 2007, and Progressive on their site have 11.5" lowest shock, But I think it can go lower, as you have proven :D . So sorry to bother you man, I would really appreciate information on what length of shocks you are rocking on your awesome bike :D.

[@freefree2021]

where you get the front wheel? is it for a vtx1300 or is it from a different bike?
