Thanks again!
Get a clear. Light is visible when you look at it but it does not light up the road at night with the tinted cover. I'm switching out the headlights to HID.

Thanks for the response.
One more question, the lens over the headlight is not removable? I would like the top lens to be tinted so if I could just unscrew and remove the front lens I think id be okay with that? Unless it would make it look like **** haha

If you are curious about my brake lines. I had it custom made from Spiegler.


Hi kingkupal1,

i know this bit old thread, but would you share more detail info on the handlebars set up? been wanting to do this to my iron

- risers (i know they're HCP, what's the diameter on them anyway?)
- Hbars, which pro taper? Size / bend, throttle sleeve, grips
- gauge mount, again, what size are they to mount on the HCP risers?
- I might missed other things, kindly share

Cool set up on your bike by the way

thank you

best,
adhus

I must say, excellent thread here. Really enjoyed seeing all the modifications youve made to your bike. It looks pretty sweet.
I too am in the process of converting my 2000 XL883 over to a "Club Style" bike. I have my T-bars on there of course, along with my Krator Quarter fairing. 2 into 1 Thunderheader, and Stage 1 intake.
Great thread man, keep it up!

I don't take too many pictures because she's nowhere near done. I just got my speedo relocation mount in yesterday thats waiting to go on. She will be going into the paint booth after I mount the 4.5 gallon tank. Lots of fun to be had still


Nowhere near done...

I was inactive in the forums for a while.

Hard Case Riser, 1-1/8 to fit the ProTaper Bar, Woods Low, just make sure its also 1-1/8" on the clamp area. Any 1" grips works, you'll need the 1" sleeve from HCP. Accutronix Gauge mount. That should set you up.
