    I have bought another bike and now I am able to work on my Maxim without effecting riding time! So do I go stock or do go with mods? Being a bike that is shaft drive does this minimize my mod options?

    I always liked the "Black & Gold" look of the Midnights - but well executed "bobbers" in flat black with forward controls, sprung seats and PODS* have successfully sold on E-Bay for $2,500.

    It really depends on what you want to do.

    A skilled welder can lengthen a shaft drive swingarm, or hard-tail.

    (*PODS is a 4 letter word here)
