New here. I have a VTX 1300. Just made a deal to get my 16 year-old son a 1988 VT600 basket case. I'm sure I'll have lots of questions and will be looking for some parts.
Where are you located? If there are any bike salvage yards in your area, you can check there. Ebay is also a possibility for parts. There are always people here that are selling parts too.
