Conversions for an 883 Custom
Last year I was given an '99 883 custom and have been thinking about modifications. I'm 6'4" 230 lbs. it feels a touch small but I love riding it.
The mods I've been reading up on are:
Anyone have any thoughts?
The mods I've been reading up on are:
- 1250 conversion kit
- Heavier duty shocks
- Bigger tank
- Bigger tires
- Possibly some apes
Anyone have any thoughts?

For the 1250 conversion kit check out NRHS stage 1, 2 and 3 kits. They give you insane performance over other kits. Price is pretty good for stage 1 and 2.

I went with Biltwell Slimline risers and Tracker bar, and I relocated the speedo with a slightly modified Roland Sands gauge relocation kit.

That looks great! Good tip. Completely avoid going with apes there.
