Default My modified Sporty XL883C -01

Bought a 883C a month ago (to have a daily ride while building a chopper)

Could not resist, had to mod her up a bit.. Low budget fast styling

Nice job, bikes looking good.

Doing more with less money is a good sign of skill and ingenuity.

Your everyday bike has more work than some people's "Customs."

Beautiful Bosken!! Looks awesome man.. I'm REALLY diggin those struts. Really lowered the *** end very well! And the chopped fender looks perfect. That black rims are SICK as well man! For a budget build, you sure have done a hell of a job so far man! Thanks for the PM as well, as I've been constantly reading through the sporty forum looking for updates on your sporty. Looks really badass my friend. How does it ride compared to the street bob? I really want to pick up an 883 in the near future. Gotta get my finances straightened out though. Keep on posting the pics man! I'm diggin' it. Have you thought about doing a tank lift? Those peanut tanks look awesome when lifted.

Very well done. And fast too! I do like your metal finishes. I have one question! What do stock pipes that have been sliced in half sound like? does it get much louder? They look great.
