Yep, I've pimped my Vulcan a bit... New set of Muzzy pipes, Cobra engine bar, shield & lowers, passenger footboards. Is this how it all starts? Does it end in a twelve-step program?

The fever has struck. Lookin' good.

I keep waiting for the dreaded blinged-out red m50 with the cup holders and fringe to re-appear...

**drgibson** · 01-31-2007, 03:36 PM

shhhhhh.

navevulcanguy · 01-31-2007, 03:52 PM

Are those the pipes you were telling me about? If so they do look good.

texrider · 01-31-2007, 09:07 PM

Yes, these are those.

navevulcanguy · 02-01-2007, 02:43 PM

Yeh I called the guy you said to, but all they had left was for the 1600 and 2000. Sa back to square one. I think I am just going to go with the Samson Warlord rip saws or street sweepers. Not sure yet. Cheepest I found so far is $310 on motorcycleproshop. Know of anywhere cheeper to find pipes?

I think you're getting a pretty sweet deal at $310. Nobody I'm aware of sells first quality pipes at that level, ordinarily.

Another Bling Update; My V2K is now sporting a new license plate relocation kit, from Show Chrome. It gets the plate off the top of the fender, and mounts under the turnsignal bar. That puts the plate at the bottom edge of the fender, like it should be. Lookin' mighty sweet, if I do say so!

SWEET looking ride Tex.
I'd ask for more pics to see the side-mounted plate, but I too fear the dreaded blinged-out red M50.

Dammit, don't you know it's attracted to any thread with "bling" in the title?

Shhhh, quiet, I think it's coming!

Did someone call "Miss America?"

BAAAAAAM!!!

Works every time, eh?

Hey, that reminds me of more stuff for my bike!

Here's a pic of how the license plate deal worked out...
