What extra power you are referring to? Compared to previous years you mean?

Traded my Iron 883 for a 2016 48 in billet silver. Brought her home last night! I gotta say, the new suspension is terrific! Hitting expansion joints in the pavement no longer sends a jolt through my upper body. The stock headlamp still sucks! Couldn't see a damn thing! So first priority when I got home was to install my Daymaker and Custom Dynamics led turn signals! Gotta see and be seen!!
The new factory seat is comfy. Much better than the stock seat on my 2015 Iron. I still needed to put my reach seat on though. Just didn't feel comfortable with my short legs, forward controls and the stock seating position. I was a little hunched over feeling being barely 5'7".






In stock trim before heading home.





Daymaker installed in the stock headlight bucket with a new gloss black trim ring and Custom Dynamics led turn signals.
