I dig it, greenbud. I was thinking about doing bar end mirrors too.

did you cut open the ends of the stock grips? what's the process for putting on some bar-end mirrors?

green...have you done any interstate riding with that fairing on? I'm trying to see how beneficial it is, if any. All I want is something small to throw some of the wind away from my chest while going on long rides. Can you tell a difference with having it on and off? Also, how tall are you?

I do believe that he bought the chrome version, sanded it down, and painted it to that effect. You can't buy that cover straight out of the catalog.

I have the front head lamp visor as well and honestly I don't think I noticed any change in the wind pushing on my upper body during normal riding... I do think there might have been a slight difference if you really tuck down and go..

cameraboy,yah you got to cut the grips,but its worth it you can see more then your elbows,but get good ones,had to make some trips to the hardware store to get them right,kontankerous,i do 80ml round trip to work and it does little for the wind,on the interstate.

just picked her up today after some work




Flipped the mirrors

Took off front reflectors

H&V pipes (man they are LOUD)

Tuner chip

SE air intake

and had my 883 turned into a 1200

still putting my first 50 miles on it so going slow, then need 500 before they dyno tune it (will post info here) but a HUGE difference in power
