Rigid struts are cool! I put my shocks back on for longer rides (10 minutes job), but the ride is not bad on the struts and it's a little lower. I got mine from road 6 custom for $35 with shipping.

I recently got an Iron and already upgraded - V&H Big Radius 2 into 2, stage 1 air cleaner, ECM calibration. What an improvement in performance and sound. I believe I gained a gear. I love this bike - its awesome.

New pipes and your riding experience changes so much.

Everybody was a newby at one time or another. I've only had my bike 9 months but the more you see the more you want to do. Go to youtube and search for iron 883 or nighters. Depends on the look you're going for. Pipes first for sure, then probably forward controls, mirror flip, take off the reflectors, belt guard, new seat, bars...be careful though because it's very addicting, but way fun!!
