ALL IN / At lunch looked at a 2005 VTX 1300s, 1 owner , Had all the paperwork of maintenance and oil change. Inspected 2 or this year. Get this Just over 18000 mil on it. A drop in the bucket for this bike. All stock with wind shield bags and sis bar. Gave this bike a good look over and ride. checked twice. down to the tire pressure. :) surpassed or met all. I am happy to say I will soon be part of the club.
Yeah But... you skipped showing ALL the critical adjustments.. and the stock main vs the kit jet.. did you replace the idle jet? clean it? what did you set the air/gas mix screw at? 1 1/2? 2? oh well...
"Its a little cold today!" He says as he stalls out from taking off in second gear lmao
Found a 1800r with 20k miles fully decked out. What a joy to ride and sounds like a ripping machine
What a coincidence. I just picked up an unloved 2005 VTX and this coming Valentines day is my only morning to try and get it running and Im in MD too.

Watch part 2 for the details on the needle and adjustments.... Ride safe!
Do you like riding it better now or before? And did all that give it more power ?
Much better now, like having another gear at the high end...
The mounting bracket doesn't make any sense how it's supposed to be mounted. Any help out there please
Have you removed the stock air housing? What I recall the new one mounts where the old one was...
Did you have to do any fuel command tune up? I have cobra exhaust already just stock intake? Let me know what you did thanks in advan
Yes for the new intake, with the stock intake I doubt you will have to adjust the carb.
You can get those things to sound rite . The only One comes close to have a good sound is a Yamaha
