    Have poked around for a while and thought id share what I got for sale.

    Making saddle bag guards and other parts ya can't get for some bike is a big part of my business. Though most folks buy as I have dirt cheap prices.
    Why pay $75-$150 for some bent rod your gonna hide?

    Its $24.99 + shipping on saddle bag guards for any bike.

    here is my guards page
    http://xvfinishes.com/parts/saddle_bag_ ... suppo2.htm

    [Sold them on Ebay for 3 years for many many different bikes till my account got hack.]

    First mod I did to my 82 XV750 Virago was put the whole front end off a 83 Midnight Maxim on it. Which makes the bike handle even better then stock and stops better. Now everyone does it espically the sidecar/hack guys. The Maxim's tad shorter forks corrects rake n trail just right for such an app.

    [Though you all may not like us Virago folks buying up all the used parts ;)]

    I was just browsing the xj site and noticed your post regarding Maxim forks.
    I have a 1984 XJ 750 RL with a sidecar attached. This model was not sold in the U.S.A. but is almost identical to the 900 that was sold there.
    You said the maxim forks are shorter and help correct the rake and trail. Would you have anymore information on this or could you put me in touch with someone who has done this modification on a bike with a sidecar.
    Many thanks

    They use fake email address around here or something. When ya sign up it ask for a fake one to display. Dunno how it suppose to work. Maybe ya gotta email through the board for it to work right???

    Can ask Gust questions about that, he is the main hack guy.

    Tell em Matt from VT sent ya.

    What's $2 really but due to supply prices going up my prices went up $2
    on the 22nd.

    speak up now if you want a set of bag guards or stays at the old price.


    make sure and let me know when your order, also.
