Going to be doing some serious work on my 08 vstar in a few weeks.
The two major things I am doing is stretching the front end out, and putting a potato chip seat on with a tank stretch.
That's said there are several fork kits on the market that change the angle of the trees and the fork angle to achieve a long low look without cutting the gooseneck.anyone that has tried any of these I would like to know how you like it, the reviews on all I have read are great and all same they maintain the stock trail angles pretty well. I want to lengthen the front end by 6-8" and keep the look of the bike low and long, not trying to make it look like a chopper, more pro street look. Also does anyone know anyone doing stretch jobs on tanks,or anyone selling a pro street style tank as a bolt on for the vstar 1100. Again I am looking for a long stretched tanks style, with or without the speedo on it.not necessary if it is narrower.
Any help is greatly appreciated
