Default Quick Q:?
Hi I'm new here. I just got a new 08 883 sportster standard(couldnt afford the custom) I was woundering if/how much it would be to move the front pegs/shifter/brake up like the custom?? Cause my legs cramp up real quick with the standard way they are now. Any help would be great!
Thanks
