Certainly wasn't intended as bad form. Consider the request canceled. I will go edit the original post to remove it.
My apologies.
[QUOTE=readtrio;3063221]I have to agree.... this isn't the "request something for free" post,but it is the "PAY IT FORWARD" post. If you are in need of something put it on the wanted to buy, or another post altogether. Asking for stuff kinda kills the spirit of paying it forward.

No harm, no foul. It just defeats the purpose, paying it forward has to come from someones willingness to give and offer up something to give, or a service to help someone out. Asking someone to pay something forward kinda changes the whole idea of doing something out of kindness of someones heart. Not to say that asking for help is wrong, just out of the theme of this particular thread.
Maybe someone should start a "Need help with something" thread for this particular need.
These are hard times for everyone indeed, I for one almost lost all my chit due to being laid-off for an extended length of time. So I for one have NO problem asking for, or giving help to ANYONE who needs it.
Good luck to any of my Brothers or Sisters in need of help during these F'D up times.

I see I got flamed for the post as well. It's "nice" to see some imposed montitors that set people back in "their" place if they post up and accidentaly got the concept incorrect.
However, I do really like the thread and have followed it from time to time to see what's happening.

There was a post called "The Brotherhood and Sisterhood of the Travelling Seat" The premise was to lend your unused stock seat to someone to use while they were having their own seat modded by MCC. When the modded seat was returned, that rider would pass the seat on to the next rider who posted a need.
" Pay It Foward " It's my sig on my personal e.mail and has been for a long time. Good movie, shame we can all grasp it. Good thread to see ! Smitt...

Lost the point of it
The whole pay it forward thing is awesome but it isn't to benefit yourself it is to help out a fellow rider you shouldn't do a good deed just to expect it to help you the reason for doing this is to help out one another if your not using it and it is collecting dust get rid of it. I missed out on a couple things that i would of liked to have but thats ok.
i have a set of spokes off a 1300s 2006 they could use a good cleaning and the rear has some paint overspray but if you want them pay the shipping you can have them.
If they'll fit my 1300 Retro, yeah, need them. Scuffed up mine something fierce when I laid it down a few months ago. I'll send a PM.
need mirror and levers
bike fell over , I need LEVERS AND MIRRORS FOR VTX C 1300 THANKS..
not toon anyones parade, but personally i think this post should be left to people who have things to pass along, as opposed to asking for free stuff.... correct me if i'm out of turn here..... and don't get me wrong, i'd love to take all my items off of the WTB forum and put them here, but it seems like its against the title of this forum.....
(not trying to be a jag, just trying to stop this thread from losing its originally intended purpose)

Saliva,
I'm pretty sure he was posting in reference to Cajundude's post. I appreciate what you're doing, but take it easy on the legitimate requests. He's a new guy.
I agree with you 100% on the "asking." Keep up the good work!

Hey guys.... I picked up some HK American Classics last year for my 2006 C and now have the stock pipes sitting in my shed collecting dust. The have around 3,000 miles on them with normal wear and whatnot. Too much of a pain in the ass to ship, but if anybody in the metro NY area needs them, they are yours for the asking. I live in western suffolk and work in central nassau.

Not sure if this thread is still valid, but I kinda got choked up reading everyone's posts. REAL GOOD STUFF!! Anyhoo, I have a stock seat from a 1300C. Send me a pm and it's yours if you can use it. I'll cover shipping in lower 48. Have a great day folks!

Paying it Forward

Will do !
This thread is absolutely amazing, I have been on numerous boards and this is the first time I have seen something like this! I am finally starting to get all of my parts together for my bike, nothing really lying around at the moment not being used, but I do believe I will be back when I have something to offer to help someone out that is in a tight spot!
1300 Spokes
Hi YoungX:
Would love the 1300 spokes if still available. I'm rebuilding and upgrading a crashed VTX1300S, and my current spokes are pretty tarnished and beat up--to the point that I was thinking of switching to a set of R cast wheels if I could find them. But I would love to keep the spokes!
In about 3 weeks, as I come close to putting things back together, I should have a handful of stock parts I'm no longer using, and promise to post them here **Scout's Honor**
Anyway, I'll PM you Youngx
Thank you;
Warhawk
Various stock items from a 2004 1300 r/s
I have a few things you can have..
6 orange turn signal lenses (2 have the metal screw clips)
Stock horn
Stock black plastic radiator cover
Stock billboard style license plate holder.
If you want any of these items let me know.

I have a stock seat that someone can have as soon as I find a passenger Pillion to fit my C. I am not asking someone to give me one, I am looking to buy one, but until I do, the stock seat is the only way my wife can ride with me. I have an C&C solo seat and use it for just me and switch back to stock for 2 up. So, if someone knows where a decently priced passenger pillion is, please let me know and then the stock seat will go up for grabs.

Anyone got a set of 2006 C egg shaped mirrors
I dumped my scoot into the wifes car this summer. I was able to find someone on here and purchased a set of square ones, really after the OEM look. Just for the record the right side is the one that broke, left side looks like new.
Still love the bike as this was the only damage due to dump in the garage.
Thanks all for the consideration.
