Great looking bike man. I have a ton of questions since I'm going in same direction these days. How do the clip ons compare to the stock bars? How are the progressive shocks working for ya? And can you see anything in those tiny mirrors. Sorry to bug ya, but your bike looks awesome. Great job!

I LOVE the clip ons! Might take some getting used to, I find them very comfortable and they increase handling response over stock bars. Plus they look pretty cool! lol
The Night and day on the progressive shocks! It feels like another bike.
The mirrors are tiny but convex, not regular mirrors. So you'd be surprised how much you actually see. I can see everything behind me and next to me. Same blind spot as stock mirrors.
No problem, I'm happy to help answer any questions I can.

John(from Brooklyn) ... That is one MEAN machine. Nice work! One question. I noticed you swapped out the rear shocks with the progressive 430 13" Contrast Cut rear shocks. Is there a noticeable improvement in the suspension? I got my 2012 iron about 3-4 weeks ago and after having put on some 600 kms (yeah, I'm Canadian, eh), I can't help but agree with the reviews I've read about the stock suspension being somewhat rough and unforgiving. Hoping to get your thoughts on how it's affected your ride. Thanks man ... And again, congrats on your custom beauty!
