Hi Loban, loving the music Jamz, Dat Metric looks Mean as mofo, your paint job is Saweet, back on da road, giving you a 10 on your new revision on da VTX❤️God Bless, take care, Aloha from Hawaii🤙🏽Kenneth
Thanks a lot!
Beautiful bike, can you tell me what your front fender is from? New sub here . Got any updates on the bike?
Classy. And good job on the other builds too.
Thanks I appreciate it 👍🏾
I have a 2003 VTX 1300 S that is identical. Same faring. Same bags. The main difference is that the color is honey orange on mine.
My VTX has 14600 miles on the clock. It has ultimate seats with brown upholstering.
All in all, a sweet ride and bullet proof.
I don't like the ape hangers. Mine has stock handlebars with Kuryakin handles.
What brand is the rear fender and bags??
Man, where in the world can I get a front rim for my VTX. Seems so hard to find! I love the one you have.
I got the wheel from mototeks.com. It’s a wheel made to fit a Victory / Indian motorcycle, and I made it work on the VTX
Nice build video and build that's the bas kit on stock rear shocks?
Any scrapping on heavy cornering?
Yes it’s riding on the stock rear shocks. The bags and fenders don’t scrape at all only the foot pegs when I lean it hard around corners
Looks good how did you run the baggers speakers. Can u do a video showing how u did it
Right now the speakers are just bolted in. They’re not hooked up. I’m trying to figure out what kind of stereo & amplifier to install. Once I decide, I will definitely make a video documenting the whole install…. Stay tuned
Love the build chief!! My only suggestion is 2 n 1 exhaust for each side to fill the gap on the left side bad with no exhaust. Perhaps a cholo setup since the bike over 75% towards a cholo build. Love it!!
Thanks… I appreciate your suggestions !
This is a nice bike
Thanks 🙏
Beautiful!
Thanks!
What brand is the bagger rear end kit??? I'm getting ready to buy a vtx 1800 to build a bagger and that rear fender and bags look great!!
The kit is made by backyardairsuspension.com they are out of Florida…
@@lobanoriginals3307 thx. I'm picking up my bike tomorrow morning. Probably gonna wait until fall to get the bagger kit
Glad to see it back together, looks good. Who made your fender kit?
Backyard air suspension. Backyardairsuspension.com
You should sand and polish the front forks
Nice! Curious where you got the front driving lights with turn signals. I have a fairing and I don’t see how I could add those. Thanks
I found it off Ebay
Hey Loban I love the build! If you don't mind me asking where did you find the rims for that? I am looking to buy a set like that but can't find them anywhere.
I found them on eBay. “Mototeks” is the name of the seller
@@lobanoriginals3307 Thank you so much for the lead I am gonna look into them now. Awesome thank you so much bro!
Are you still around? I wanted to ask you some questions for my VTX 1800, trying to do some things like you. I ordered my 14in ape hanger bars and just got them but now being quoted like 2500. just for the cables. Help Regards Marcus. I will check back in a few days to see if you replied.
Is the quote you got for the cables and installation? Because you can get extended throttle cables (push and pull) from motionpro.com for like $75.00 a piece. The extended clutch and brake hoses are like $380-$400 for the set depending on the length from www.meancycles.com/store/parts/view.cfm?subpartID=592505
@Loban Originals very nice bike!!! What cable kit did you use for your ape hanger bars?
I found the cables on eBay. They are +8 over stock
Where can I get a similar bagger?
Does the 2 tail light wires on that fender hook up with the vtx tail light connectors? Or do I have to do some crazy wire, cutting and splicing just to get the lights to work?
They had to be spliced in…
@@lobanoriginals3307 I’m about to be on the news and the headlines are going to read “ crazy biker dude burns down entire neighborhood trying to perform electrical work without license or experience”
@@TROLLSTIN13 😂 you can do it, it’s not that hard
@@TROLLSTIN13 😆😆😆 it’s pretty simple. If you have the repair manual they have wiring diagrams in the back, or you can get online
@@lobanoriginals33076 months later and I’m just now getting my parts from back order. So far, so good. Am I going to need a Harley Davidson saddlebag latch to put on the saddlebag lids? Im not seeing a latch in the box the parts came in?
I been looking on eBay for a 21” rim like that just can’t find one for a Honda vtx1800 they all say harley
I used a rim made for a Victory Cross country. I explain how I did it in this video ua-cam.com/video/hjlINZ57KRw/v-deo.html. I found the rim on eBay but the company (mototeks) who I got it from, no longer lists it on there. But I believe you can still get the rim from their direct website mototeks.com/?gclid=Cj0KCQjwjIKYBhC6ARIsAGEds-I8sT8BrDjTqhLPhpuYPk7YdGT1-tj1EUeohxAY9Zzw5Er9rGolsA0aAom8EALw_wcB
Nice ! 😊enjoy
Thanks!
Looks good.
Thanks!
What’s up boss man I’m bout to order the kit but I see it says it doesn’t comes with certain stuff
When I ordered my kit it came with the fender, bags, lids, and mounting bracket’s. Everything else I had to order separately. I don’t know if anything changed since then
Do you know your jet sizes? Sure you would but I’m trying to get mine running like that, same pipes with factory intake
If I remember correctly I think the main is 200 and the pilot is 58
Nice job!! , what bagger kit is that?
The 4” Bagger kit from Backyardairsuspension.com
i cant find those wheels on the site anymore, would you might know where else i might find some similar that would fit an 07 VTX 1300c
Some Indian (formerly Victory) motorcycles have the same size wheel bearing and I found a comparable wheel on the mototeks site. Only problem is that the price is significantly higher. It looks as well as the size is exactly the same as the one I have. the only difference may be the size of the Indian rotor, I’m not sure if it’s the same as the victory rotor I used. This particular wheel I found is for a 2014-2020 Chieftain… Here’s the link: mototeks.com/collections/indian/products/52-fat-spoke-wheel-for-indian
@@lobanoriginals3307 appreciate the reply. im brand new to motorcycle tinkering and want to do the work myself so i'll have to do some research on rotor sizes and what not, not a bad price for the wheel
Where'd you get the bags from
backyardairsuspension.com
Where can I get a similar bagger?
Backyardairsuspension.com
What size apes are those..?
16”
How much did it all come out too?
I put a total of about $1700 in the bike
Where did you get all your parts?
Got the Bagger kit from backyard air suspension (www.backyardairsuspension.com) everything else, handlebars, wheels, etc I got off EBay
@@lobanoriginals3307 thanks. Your bikeooks good bro.
@@lobanoriginals3307 is that 21 or 23 inch?
21
