A related question:
I have a 883L, and a friend of mine has 1200C. He wants my mid-controls, I want his forwards. Could the exchange be done?
I believe it will work fine if both are between 04-07.

You bet! That's the first mod I did a week after I picked my 06 1200L. The only disadvantage is if you go over 100mph on the highway, you will fine your feet going nowhere. Try it!
