'05 XL 883 - 1200 conversion
I've put about 25000 kms on it. Did the conversion about 8000 kms ago
100% satisfied with it since the engine upgrades, not so much before that. Its my daily commuter in the riding season. I plan on a trip though the BC/Alberta Rockies this summer so we'll see how that goes.
Hey Mike, I see you stood them Flyer bars up a little straighter. They look right with the tank lift and back rest.
I couldn't make them work with my style of riding, glad it's working for you.
Not lowered at all. Stock height up front, and 1" higher than stock in back.
Spring seat is super comfortable...I've ridden with a bunch of different ones, some are more comfortable than others. The set-up in the photo is one of the best.
Sounds like you're having fun making yours your own.
Hah! Must be the tall grass. Which seat is that? I may have to reconsider.
54. 07 1200. Probably my 23 bike but my first in 25-ish years. Took a long break from riding then was finally able to afford what I wanted. 100% satisfied. I want another HD but not if I have to sell this one to get it.
Way over 21

Very happy with it. 2 hours is about max but I could improve on that with a different seat. Like the power, fat tires and looks. Keeping my eye out for the next thing coming from MoCo. Haven't seen it yet
^^ Hey Ronald, that avatar looks like it has a Honda Mini trail in it. I had one just like that. Lots of fun. That was my second or third "bike" after a couple of Briggs and Stratton mini bikes !

Thanks man. Definitely has the look i wanted and feels right sitting on it. It will be April before i get to see how it rides.
