My iron has come a long way from purchasing back it in May! Here are some photos, feel free to share yours!







Stage 1 mod done. Big sucker, Bassani Road Rage 2>1, Power Commander V





love my new gauntlet fairing, huge difference!





Glad that I dont see too many of the Irons with this fairing =)

Good looking Iron you should flip your mirrors you will be able to see a lot better. Also remove some of the reflectors it will clean up the bike. Also how well does that fairing deflect the wind?

Nice looking Iron. I'm really starting to like the 2-1 systems.

Thanks! Yes, I was looking to do that next because they do indeed get in the way..I removed the fork reflectors =)

The fairing is a huge improvement and works as it should..I took a 3hr ride from NJ to PA a few weeks before i got the fairing and it got a lil rough at times..now that I put the fairing on I felt a 100% improvement, only difference is that now the wind deflects up to my head area...but nothing to be concerned about.

Yes! I had a long conversation with my shop guy and he broke down the pros and cons of each system..needless to say, the 2 into 1 delivers the most performance that of the standard double pipes.

Thanks!!

The bike has a nice flow to it.
Bet that Bassani barks when you give it some legs.
I have the same sissy bar and I wonder why I waited so long to get one , nice looking and handy for packing "stuff".
The Gauntlet looks good on there too.
Very nice.
