My 883R/48R is nearing completion. Mine isn't so much a 48R, not sure what to call it... maybe 883RC?
You will also need the 48's speedometer bucket, I'm picking mine up today.
This conversion is far more complex (& expensive) than I expected, but H-D has never offered such a bike.

I didn't see any speedometer bucket on ebay,could you help me to buy one from Harley retail stores or aftermarket stores?

Close........its a standard though I was told it was a low when I bought it 
I needed several suspension parts off it for what Im doing to the 48 so I just put all my 48 parts on the 883

innocell,
You did a fantastic job on your bike. Great pictures too. Is it hard to get the parts you need in China? How is the traffic where your at? I saw on the news awhile back that there was a traffic jam that lasted for over a week or something like that?

I'm going to my local dealer this afternoon. The back cover for the speedometer (71988-10) costs $16.99, I'll check price for the handlebar clamp/speedo bracket. I've never shipped anything to China, but my guess is that will be expensive.
