This is my 2000 Sportster it started life as a base 883. Today there is nothing left of the original bike except the crankcase.
This bike currently puts 85HP to the ground and still runs the 883 gearing so it's pretty fast, there are so many hand built parts on it, it would take a book to list them all, but between the racked front end and the 2" longer swing arm, when you get on it all it wants to do is get on down the road.
