Rivco risers: controls

easy installation; just handed the parts over to my technician, had coffee and looked at the new bikes. My 07VTX1300c has optional Hondaline headlights and a screen. He had to climb into the headlight to disconnect the wiring harness and connect it to the original connector. The right hand wiring harness and brake cable do not reach the original tie rod connector, but they look good and do not rub against the tank. The clutch and throttle cables are a bit taut at full lockout, but they don't…

Good parts are best in Controls

I've been looking for a way to raise the bar a little higher and closer to myself. These orthoses did their job perfectly and my posture became more upright. That's what I wanted, what I wasn't expecting was improved steering performance, which is very cool. When you're parked next to a completely stock bike, it's hard to know a modification has been made. I also liked that I didn't have to remove anything from the steering wheel.

Rivco and Cycle Stash = Winning Combo!

I'm a 50 year old man but an old fart. But I love to ride. I recently found a great deal on the vtx 1300c. After driving it home I realized that you need to change 4 things first. The exhaust was too quiet. Changed to Cobra Speedster Long Slashdowns. The footpegs were pathetic and my right leg was bent to the side because of the air filter. Replaced by floor panels. The seat became less comfortable after 15 minutes. My back ached and my mood was generally depressed. Changed to Ultimate X Mid…
