Here is mine, I removed the 10" Z bars from Licks cycles and Installed these drag bars from Nash motorcycles, I will install 6" risers and speedo relocator, anyone knows where to get the speedo relocation kit, I like the one that relocates it to the side of the tank and I would like to keep the lights that are under the speedo.

^Slick!

What pipes are those and how do you like the new bars from Nash? They look pretty good. I wouldn't mind seeing more pics of 'em.

Ah, thanks. So I guess I can't just remove it, I'll need a whole new headlight.

An 883? You look too big for the 883 to pull around.

Is this your first bike?

Actually this is my first NEW bike, and the 883 has plenty of power and torque to move around.
And it met my specifications, had to have alloy rims, had to have a 3 gallon tank, I have to be able to flat foot it, and has to be light enough that I can load it into my truck if it breaks down.

The Iron meets all of that, plus I hate excessive chrome. if I wanted to see my reflection when I look at a bike I would have bought a mirror.

Here are some more pictures, the pipes are from LEDSLES CUSTOMS, and the handlebars in my opinion look awesome however I think they will look better with 6" black risers and I want to clean up the hand controls, does anyone knows a way to get rid or get smaller hand controls? probably different switches for the turn light, turn on the bike, etc, a smaller housing?? Thanks
