Default 2012 883 Iron - My mods so far!

This is my first HD, and so far I am loving it. I've only had this bike for about 3 weeks, so the mods are basic right now. I hope to get some opinions and input!






Joker Racing A/C



Vance & Hines Short Shots





Progressive 412's



RSD Fuel cap





HD Diamond Black Footpegs/Shifter



Flipped mirrors



On the way:
Sick Saddles solo seat
PM Renthal Grips
HD Dark Custom Derby Cover

Need to do:
Flat black the headlight trim
Smoked Turn signals


Opinions and thumbs up & flames encouraged!

Yeah, I need to get to that. Looks like I got to pry it off. Didn't see a removable bracket or anything like that at first glance. I was worried what it was going to look like under there once I removed it.

Rattle can that headlight ring. I have literally no skills when it comes to stuff like this and mine came out good. Sand, primer, paint and clear.

Are the shocks that much a difference? Let's say you total the bike (God forbid, lol), would one of your first mods to the new bike be those shocks?

And I like the bike especially the air cleaner. I would do something with the pipes though! Remove the heat shields and wrap them or something to be a little different.
