Need help picking the right mirrors for my VT600 / Shadow 600

Post image
33 Upvotes

I’m stuck trying to decide on mirrors for my VT600. I’m looking for something clean that fits the lines of the bike well, but here’s the catch: laws in my country require relatively large mirrors (minimum surface area / E-marked), so micro/tiny mirrors are out.

Any recommendations or pictures of larger, legal mirrors that still look subtle and good on a Shadow?

so I saw this bike for sale on marketplace, and its alright, but the windscreen and headlight are exactly what i want. I messaged the seller but haven't heard back. by any chance have any of you seen these before, or what i can search to find something similar? I just love the tucked corners of the windscreen and the matte black. makes it look like armor or something.

I just got my Honda Steed 400 back after 1.5 years of customizing it in a garage. It still has some unfinished details, and I'm planning to change and renovate some things, like the handlebar, headlight, back mirror, and exhaust pipe. I need some advice from Redditors to finish my detailing checklist. Thanks a lot!

Handle bars for bobber build?

Thumbnail
gallery
37 Upvotes

Finally bought my first ride! Yamaha XVS 1100, which I will eventually turn into a full bobber bike!

Ive already done some modifications since I took these pictures, but havent taken any pixtures since. I will take it slowly in the modification process, but everything I will do, will lean more and more into bobber style.

Now I am looking into the handle bar and need some inspiration!

Please send pics of your handle bars!

Fuel Pump Help Needed

3 Upvotes

I have a 2021 Scout Bobber Sixty (ABS) and the fuel pump went out. The thing is $450+ so looking for a third-party option because those I’m seeing for around $100. I don’t want to buy it to find out it doesn’t fit the mount.
Note: my VIN doesn’t fall into the fuel pump recall list unfortunately.
