Hey David ...Thanks for taking the time to make this post.
Just became an Voyager owner...and like the bagger look , as well as the top load bags that this ride has. IMHO the door edge trim is genius!!
This really is well thought out. Happy motoring my man!!
This is almost elegant in its simplicity, and beautiful in execution. Well done!
It is fairly simple. Hardest part is taking it all apart the first time to cut the strut cover. I ended up removing the top chrome cover when I moved the trunk back a few inches to give my wife more room. Ofcourse shortly afterwards I traded it in on a road glide ultra.
I have watched this vid a number of times. This is a very slick way of switching between Voyager and Vaquero. I am getting up the nerve to cut the chrome strut covers. Thanks David for showing us this method. BTW….the blue color that year was killer.
It is alittle nerve racking thinking about cutting the covers but once done you'll see it was no big deal. I just electrical tape to figure out my cut line then marked with sharpie. Just have to make sure there's enough of a edge on the bottom piece to put the door trim on. Might have to cut alittle more off the top piece for enough clearance for the door trim used.
@@davidhoman3887 I spent my first 25 years in Hastings just south of you. Small world sometimes.
Which hastings iowa or nebraska?
@@davidhoman3887 Nebraska. I thought I saw a Nebraska license plate 8 which once was Grand Island.
Do you miss your Voyager? Mine is new but not near as nice looking as the blue.
Ever since I got the “Ivan flash”, my Voyager has good throttle response, better gas mileage and runs cooler. It is like a HD RoadGlide minus $10k.
Nice job David. Very slick, but man look at that ‘70 something FORD hiding in the background!! Show more please.
Hey thanks for the comments on the facebook group, this is definitely the first mod I am doing, I love a tour pac for long trips but I find it a little much for just booting around town. Thanks for the video will post when I have mine down,
Where's your video?
I wish you had a video of how you cut the struts!
It's not difficult. I used electrical tape to figure out where I was going to cut then used a sharpie to mark the line then cut.
@@davidhoman3887 Table saw?
@jrock2264 I used my angle grinder with thin cut off wheel on it.
excellent video i just bought a voyager so this is a very useful video..many thanks for posting it
Very nice. I’ve been looking for a simple way to do this and I believe you have come up with it.
Nicely done. If you could come up with an idea to cover the holes that are left it would be perfect. A template and a 3d printer could come up with something ?
Thanks for this. I'm looking at a Voyager though I was on the hunt for a Vaquero. I only wish you had done a pan back and surround to see how it looks without the trunk overall.
Love the video, thanks for the idea. Hopefully in the near future I will be getting a Voyager and this is one of the mods that I want to do to it so that I am not driving around with the tour pack all of the time.
Could you tell us which tools you used to cut the chrome struts? Maybe show this procedure in a video?
It doesn't take much time to do it but I prefer to just leave it on. I use it to lock my helmet when I park somewhere while I'm out.
That is awesome, lets me buy the Voyager and still have the "Vaquero" when I want it! thanks for the video!
Anthony's West Texas Rides. Here's the write up I did on it.
docs.google.com/document/d/1t6DAbRUEBnZonf776zjS8D64ZL6lplPdsKUaiamk-w4/edit?usp=drivesdk
Anthony's West Texas Rides the vaquero is a fine bike but I'm not a fan of the blacked out look or side open bags and I think it's cheaper to buy a voyager and make the trunk removable then buy a vaquero and add a trunk. The trunk us great for road trips and I use it when my wife and son ride with me but when I ride solo I don't really need it so I take it off. I ride mostly solo anyways so the trunk is off most the time.
David Homan I am thinking you are a genius and I will look more into that route than the vaquero now!
Thanks!
Anthony's West Texas Rides I do my best :)
That looks awesome you gave me a great idea. Since you have taken it all apart could you answer a question for me? Is it possible to slide the trunk back a little while it is on? My wife and I would like a little more room between us and I just got the bike and haven't taken anything apart yet. Thanks.
Did you ever figure out how to do this? I would like mine further back too
Thanks for the video but you should have done a walk around afterwards to show us the bike
If your on the vulcan pages on FB just search for David Homan and should be plenty of pictures. I traded my voyager off almost 3 yrs ago but did a bunch of mods to it. I was on Custom Vaquero Nation and lots of pics on there but got booted but imagine all my post are on there.
Thank you
That was impressive. Would be better if something was available like Harley. The Harley has quick disconnect that takes seconds.
Yep I might of tried to do something up but I traded my voyager off for a 15 road glide ultra.
Nice video, and beautiful bike! I was looking at the houses in the background and thought, "man, this looks like Nebraska." Then I saw you had NE plates. Too funny! What city are you in? I'm from Bellevue originally. Safe riding. -Mitch
That house was in La Vista and now I'm in Millard. I traded that bike in to dillion's about 3.5 yrs ago for a road glide ultra.
@@davidhoman3887 that's awesome! I thought it was the Omaha area when I saw the slope of the street and style of homes. I'm out in Virginia now with the Navy. I picked up a 2010 Vulcan Voyager in November. I still have family back in Bellevue.
Dave, can you tell me how you cut the strut cover without "fraying" the chrome? Well executed project.
I just cut it using a 1/16 cut off wheel on my grinder. Then used some door edge trim to cover where I cut.
Gday David. Top tips and great work on the vid.
Can you please tell me what kind of door trim you used?
Just the stuff you can get at any parts store.
@@davidhoman3887 do ypu know if there are any bars out there? Looking to put some 12s on mine
@Bramwell most run jsr you can get off ebay and now sharkroad is making some to I think you can find on ebay too.
Hey David. What quick release did you get for the lights? Was it a 3 wire quick release? BTW, i cut the strut covers on mine. Turned out great. Love the look and ease of getting the trunk on and off. Hope to hear back from you
How did you mount the antenna?
I’ve done everything else so far and works great. Even painted chrome with black plasti dip. Just my personal preference.
While I don't have my voyager anymore to take pictures but I made a bracket and welded it to the bar that crossover from bag to bag and then mounted it down there and made a cover out of stainless steel to put where the antenna was originally mounted on the trunk.
Hi David, I have a quick question regarding the vaquero seat, did you do any modifications to be able to use it or is it just plug and play?
Just a couple washers between the seat and the mount and it'll click right in.
I would really like to see how you cut the chrome. Good video for us to learn.
I don't have the bike anymore but I used black electrical tape to figure out where I wanted to cut. Then used a sharpie to mark it and used my 4.5" grinder with a 1/16 cut off wheel.
@@davidhoman3887 did the pieces fit nicely back together or did they have a noticeable gap? Cant tell in video
@@nicholaswlandry it depends on how well you cut it on how it fits back together but should fit back together nicely if done right.
@@davidhoman3887 Did you replace with a new bike? What did you get? What was your experience with the Kawasaki?
@@wowdamann3367 I'm on a 15 cvo road glide ultra now. The kawasaki was a decent bike but I got bored with it quick and tired of making stuff work so bought my harley so I could enjoy that huge aftermarket. I put 20k on my voyager in 2 yrs without any real problems but have put 28k on my harley in almost 2 yrs without any problems. My problem was I like to change stuff up and not alot of options for the kawasaki.
Not sure if this link works but was what my voyager was like after all my mods.

What did you use to cut the plastic Chrome covers ? Do you happen to have any pics that can be zoomed in to see where you cut them?
Wow, well done sir.
Jim Kennedy thanks
Awesome. Thank you 🙏
It's a shame that more manufacturers including harley Davidson are not making this a factory standard feature. Indian has it all over everyone else when it comes to this.
Hi there. Question for you, if you happen to know the answer. I have a 2013 Vulcan Vaquero 1700. Do you know if they tour packs (trunks/back seat) will fit on the Vaquero? Thanks
The fender strut cover is different on a Vaquero but have seen guys mount the voyager tour pack to them. I think they use the backrest mounts but am not positive but if you join the custom vaquero nation on Facebook someone on there would know. You can run a voyager seat but have to get the bracket that mounts to the fender for the passenger seat to hook to.
I have a question for you will That seat fit on a 2012 kawasaki Vulcan Voyager 1700 i looking to buy one
I apparently don't get notified of half the comments on here so haven't seen a bunch of the questions asked. Any yr Vaquero seat will work but might need to add a washer between the seat and the mount to get it to lock in properly.
Can you show the bike from different angles with the trunk removed?
I don't even own the voyager anymore but if you join Custom Vaquero Nation on Facebook and tag me I can post pictures or can search David Homan and can see pics I've posted on there.

Hey bud what year is that bike? I have a 2010 and my Chrome pieces are different. Thanks
It's a 11 and all the voyagers are the same.
My chrome peices have a high fin shape to them. I'd like to get something like you have.
@dave ferrigan mine are the same as yours just I cut them to make the trunk removable. All voyagers from 09 to 23 are the same minus color and options like abs and stuff.
David, what did you use to notch the trunk bolt mounts? Was that a grinder as well?
Yep just used my grinder
What kind of backrest did you have on your voyager?
How did you cut the chrome covers? My dad has the same bike and wants to do the same with his trunk
I used a cut off wheel on my grinder.
drive.google.com/file/d/1j6D4_qOZg2lCWvwabcPrEQhofyaq-Bfn/view?usp=drivesdk
Thank you soooo much
No problem
Hey there David, thank you so much for this video. I do have a question about this though. Are Voyager owners able to add a backrest for the passengers? I'm on the market for a Voyager but will only need the trunk for long weekend rides. Which honestly happen about 6 times a riding season.
I made some brackets to mount a backrest i had for my Honda vtx. Some ppl buy the nomad backrest but its not usually cheap. Theres also a European company that makes a backrest listed for the voyager and vaquero but think its black.
@@davidhoman3887 Thank you for the quick reply and information. You are very handy I see. That is great to be able to have options with such a beautiful bike.
@@joec.5086 it's been a ok bike but I'm currently in the process of trading it off for a 2015 RG Ultra
@@davidhoman3887 Well I definitely appreciate your feedback. I have the Voyager and Vaquero on my list at the moment. I am still unsure what to go for. I also like the Vulcan Nomad and a few others. So hard to narrow it down, since there are so many beautiful bikes out.
@@joec.5086 the fairing is nice on the Voyager/vaquero. I picked the Voyager because while the vaquero bags look great i hate side open bags and i like chrome. Had my bike just over 2 yrs and put 20,000 miles on it. My bike isn't bad but as i started customizing i found there's not much available for them. I'm running freedom performance slip-ons with thunder mfg BAK us ivan flash and my bike drinks the fuel. I do alot of interstate riding around 80 mpg (gps which is like 85 in speedometer) and i get 35mpg if lucky and closer to 32 normally. Seemsif you leave the stock intake and do the other mods the gas mileage is better. I'm moving on because i want the ability to have more power and almost unlimited aftermarket selection
what did you use to cut the chrome pieces with and did it go smoothly or did you have to clean up the cuts very much?
Anthony's West Texas Rides. I used my angle grinder with a 1/8" cut off wheel and used the door edge trim to cover up the cuts. Have to cut alittle extra off to compensate for the door trim.
crazy question, I have been looking at these bigs and wondering how you think they will work for taller riders? Im 6'6''
Sweet mod though
I'm 6'3" and long legs and admit it took awhile to adjust to this bike. My other two bikes have jardine forward controls so not use to floorboards and heel toe shifter. It's alittle cramped but I have put on 12" apes and bought a mustang seat that sits u back and up some for long rides and the vaquero seat let's me slide back further then the stock voyager seat but only good for a few hundred mile rides. Over all its not as cramped as my buddy's 14 street glide which brings my legs up even higher because of how they did thier floorboards. I'm pretty happy with it so far.
Sweet thanks, that is good to hear. Yeah i ride a 77 hd shovelhead with floor boards so used to that. lol i mean i love hds but man don tthink i could afford the road glide. this is a way cheaper option with from what i can tell a lot of the same items.
Cave Troll yep alot like a RG but about $5000 cheaper. I wanted a RG but settled on the voyager for now
When you cut the chrome covers.... did it flake the chrome??
Alittle and thats why i added the door trim to cover up the cut.
Not clear all what you cut to make a quick release trunk...
drive.google.com/file/d/1j6D4_qOZg2lCWvwabcPrEQhofyaq-Bfn/view?usp=drivesdk
What did you use to cut the covers sir
A .045 cut off wheel on my 4.5" grinder.

Is the vaquero seat a straight swap or do you have to make modifications?
Its a straight swap but you need to put 2 washers between the seat and the mount. I bought a new mount for like $35 so i didn't have to keep swapping back and forth depending on what seat i wanted to run.
@@davidhoman3887 so it's the vaquero mount? Where do you put the washers?
Also have you thought about just getting a set of vaquero strut covers to use when your not running the trunk?
@@jimcampbell3945 no I'm using a voyager mount and you put the washers on the studs of the seat then put the mount on and bolt it down. The vaquero struts are different and i hear with some mods you can make them work but i like my chrome and the open area left from cutting the strut doesn't bother me any.
@@davidhoman3887 thanks so much brother
Hi David
Could you please tell me what air breather you have on your bike, I’ve been looking for something like that one.
Im riding a vaquero! Thanks very much.
You can Facebook me at David De Marsh Aldergrove, BC Canada.
Thanks

What did you use to cut you bracket?
.045 cut off wheel on my 4.5 grinder.
