Took my 1980 Original Sportster XLH1000 Ironhead out for a ride. Super fun bike to ride. Seems way more nimble than my XL1200L. It was also way too quiet for my liking but what do you expect when it's completely stock. I will probably miss that loud deep rumble once my 2011 is gone.
Here are a couple of pics after I cleaned her up a little....still have a lot more to do:

It did really cut down some wind in the chest.

Mucked around with finding a hiding spot for the compressor for air ride suspension.

Two inches of clearance at stock height....not enough I think.

Under swingarm

The canister I was using for the mock up was 6” by 2 1/4” based on a 98c Viair compressor for DIY propose.
I want to run Legend Air sysytem so if anyone has the dimensions of the legend compressor unit 112-1208 would really be helpful!
Also got fork legs ready with Progressive mono tubes installed.
