I do like “older” fully original bikes, but modifying them by adding subtle and fitting accessories are what makes motorcycling so much fun for me.
Meet my 1991 XV13TD, fully revised by the previous owner and now under my care. Having had a chopper / cruiser obsession I have now switched interests on big tourer bikes.. This mark 2 is fully functional, complete and drives really well imho. I found a set of original GL1500 smoke tinted Baker Built Air Wings and retrofitted them to my mark 2 with the supplied hardware. Really takes the wind away from the knees and lower legs, this along with simple highway pegs and a shorter antenna which used to be on my dad’s Street Glide. It’s cold and windy winter weather here and can’t wait for long cross country rides in the sun with nice temperatures!
Next to mods like a cigarette lighter socket, phone and nav system mount, USB charging ports and a bluetooth FM transmitter, are there any mods fellow riders cannot live without that you can recommend me?
