    Choppin' the Shadow

    Well, my wife doesn't ride her Shadow VLX 600 anymore. She told me to just sell it. But I'm thinking' it would be fun to play with it and customize it for myself as I've always wanted a chopper. Heck I'm already makin payments on it so WTH.

    I have been playin on the computer with some ideas.
    This pict shows what could be.

    1. custom paint job (my own design).
    2. Seeger Cycle Chopper Kit with 14 deg rake.
    3. Seegers rear lowering kit.
    4. Solid billet wheels.
    5. custom air intake.
    6. forward controls (not shown).
    7. custom Cobra pipes (also not shown).
    8. any other chrome and billet goodies I can find.



    I'll call it the Texas Chompper. Could be fun.

    Ride Safe.

    Hey Wayne.. Looks really cool...I bet it's very $$$$ though. I also wonder how long you would be satisfied with a 600 cc. Might as well put a bad boy 102 ci in it....only draw back would be the length of added payments.. happy chopping!!! Shack

      But..try using a (for lack of better word) a front rim with lotsa spokes..or a rim with a few heavy spokes...just my 2cents

        I have thought about that. Prolly not long. As you know, I'm no small man. I may just sell the shadow and get me another moto when funds allow.
        Decisions, decisions.

        Ride safe.
