Pick mine up august 14th...stuck outta state for work. Can't wait! Have se slip ons being put on right away, and was thinking going with the spring saddle seat also right away. Anyone have that seat as of now? Heard it can make the ride a little bouncy. Will post pix when finally back home. Anyone know of rigid frames for these guys???

Default love the custom 883 irons shown

I just love to look at the custom ideas from the many "883 iron" owners out there ,,,,,I just purchased a stock 2010 "883 iron" on Aruba .

I think this has the potential to be an interesting "island bobber" project .
The bike in my opinion , is just the right size for a small island ( although Aruba has plenty of big HD's running around!!)

The power range and price were the determining factors for my choice

Look forward to adding the "personal" custom ideas to this one ,,,,,thanks for sharing all the pictures.

James

thanks! yeah unfortunately the controls, just inside of the turn signal buttons, tap on each side of the tank at full lock. looking at the steer stop im about a few hairs shy of the steer stop touching. not that big of a deal, i just mind it when im parking the bike or turning in the driveway.

heres a front shot
