  • sometimes insanity rules...possible mod!

    ok, so i was looking at a friends bike today and what he would need to do to get a little more rumble out of it.

    Anywho
    so i got to looking at his bike which is a '07 Vulcan 1300... caught a glance if the swing arm assembly...... hey thats shaft drive......so is my bike.......hmmmmm .....that it is a little bit longer and can handle quite a bit fatter tire, not to mention it has some nice aluminium wheels......

    soooooo my thought was to research the swing arm assembly and maybe do a swap....i could run one fat tire...hehehehe.

    What do you all think?

    fat tire with shafty

    Definitely doable, you will have to cut out the left pivot or machine a new one and weld it to the outtermost left of the frame there so you can get the wider swingarm in. then you have to get a spacer cut for the middle drive and an extender to the middle drive shaft splines. It really isn't that difficult if you can weld...couple of members are already on it....chop
