  1. I recently bought a set of mufflers from an 87 XVZ 1300 and wanted to swap them onto my 83. When I tried to install I noticed the brackets on the mufflers are different but the muffler itself seems to be identical. What I'm wondering now is whether I could the change the rear peg brackets and replace them with passenger boards from an 87 to make this work or do I have to go the slice and dice route. I want to thank you all in advance, I'm still learning about the First Gens and you guys are an invaluable resource. Thank you.
  2. Will the trunk from an 86 VR fit on my 83? I like the style of the backrest better and was wondering if it's a straight swap.
  3. Thanks for all the input. Didn't mean to start a war, I just wanted to get some opinions. I think after doing some research and hearing what you gentlemen have to say I'm going to give the new kid (Big Crank) a shot too. I'll let you all know how it works out. Thanks again to all. Big Mark
  4. Hi guys, Just wondering if anyone on here has tried the MegaMax gel battery that is for sale on E Bay? It's advertised as direct fit for the first gen which sounds good but I'm just wondering if it's worth saving the $35 or so as compared to the Odyssey PC 680. Any insight you gentlemen have is greatly appreciated. I'm kind of a newbie to the first gen so go easy on me please. Thanks Big Mark
