Cool **How Many Iron 883 Owners Out There?**
Any Iron owners who do not have stock handle bars please post your pics...

Also pictures of any other mods you have done to your Iron.

No new pics of ours. Only things new are lowering blocks and removed the belt guard.

I had the forward controls put on mine when I got it and just flipped the mirrors over. Sorry but my ol dumbass can't figure out how to post pics on here. I tried doing what the post says but it still don't want to cooperate.

This is not my bike nor did I take this photo, but when I saw it on this forum a couple of weeks ago I just had to save it. I could see this with the drag bars a fellow board member installed, but overall the look is awesome:

Mine is stock, figured I would break it in before making any changes. I thought for sure the chrome pipes would be the first to go (trading out for black), but once I got the bike home I like the look of them better than I thought. Still will probably make the move, I have my eye on some black Rush slip-ons.

float - what did you do along with the Short Shots? Did you have to add a fuelpak?
