here are a couple of pix for ya'll. i plan on adding some more stuff over time, like my older vulcan wheels i bought, but this is it so far.
saddleman "COMFY SADDLE" for my wife. she loves it.
the next 2 are a quick connect drivers backrest i made. cheap, but it works.
tall backrest with cobra emblem.
small magnetic tank bag.
here are a few with the harley FLH mufflers i had on there for about 2-3 days. they were way too loud.
couple of more i almost forgot to add.
well, there she is.

Very nice. It's hard not to love these motorcycles.
I swear... I only ride to save gas. (If you believe that I have a deal on a bridge for you.)
Re: my 2009 kawasaki vulcan 500
Interesting quick connect drivers backrest. Do you put a trunk on it? If yes, what kind of trunk?

hey JABLONSKY, yes i do put a trunk on it sometimes. its just a cheap large black plastic trunk. got it on ebay for about $25. its big enough to hold a full face helmet and maybe some gloves and nic-nacs. the only time i use it is on a longer ride. i am not even sure it has a name brand on it, like i said, just a cheapy, but it works.

Cheaper solutions are even better better, as long as they work.
I've learned to appreciate trunks during my first solo holidays years ago. I had no trunk and I couldn't even go for a swim without keeping one eye on my stuff. Since then, I always find a way to mount a trunk and a pair of hard, lockable saddlebags on my bike, no matter how ugly that might look on a cruiser.
You put quite some creativity into that bike. Well done!

Re: my 2009 kawasaki vulcan 500
thanks. i eventually want to either chop it or turn it into a cafe racer. dont know which way yet. maybe i will go half and half. that would definately be funky .
Re: my 2009 kawasaki vulcan 500
Very nice bike! I have the same color, but 2006. I noticed your saddle bags, they're nice. Where did you get them, how much were they, and did you have to put a special bracket on there to mount them?

I'll be surprised if he responds. He has moved on to another bike. Typically you get the support bars that bolt to the side and then the saddle bags go under the seat. let me know if you need more detail.
