I just got this one and it was under $25. The mounting is perfect and the chrome is pretty decent. Not top quality, but also not $75! Very good for $23. Perfect fit for my 2007 VTX1300S. Comes with all the bolts too.

Cool that you have the same bike and color!

sooo,. You can go down a rabbit hole of mods and upgrades, it really depends on your budget. I got mine with a bunch of them big already done: Vance and Hines Big Shots exhaust, Viking bags, Cobra air intake, jetted carb, crash bars, Saddlemen seat. All those mods add up to $1500 probably.

i ended up putting in Super Q baffles in the pipes. It was LOUD. Like kill your ears loud after 15 minutes. Now still loud but not as loud and the tone is deeper rumble and less straight pipe rasp.

I put in LED bulbs all around and replaced the flasher module so they didn’t hyperflash. Changed the grips to Avon Air. New tires (Michelin Commander II)

It seems to work great. It is a Vortex intake with K&N filter. Recently cleaned and oiled the filter again. You can hear the engine sucking in the air when you roll on the throttle for sure. Bike has great performance, IMO. I might need to change the jetting or at least the A/F setting since putting in the baffles. Much better tone and sound level to my ears and still lots of get up and go. Need to check the plugs and see how they look and see what kind of mileage I get with the baffles in, then adjust carb.
