I say copy...copy copy copy....really if you copy someone that has copied some one else....who are you really copying? I dont think we should copy.......Copying is just like stealing.....and IM not a thief.......but if I were a thief...I would steal the 48 and make it look like my 883R.....now that would be cool...I would have the only 48 that looks like the 883R.....first thought I would flip the mirrors back up!...and get a smaller tire for the frontn.....

You could do everything that bike has yourself right? I mean get a 1200 and add everything that 48 has. 2.1 tank is a major turnoff. Could you put a bigger tank on it?

or you could wait for rain to wash the salt away.
