RE: "List Your Mods" Thread
ORIGINAL: GothMetalGuitarist
Just for fun list your mods. List the bike you started with, where you are now, and what you plan to do this year and a picture of your past and current bike if you have them. I'll throw out a general format and lets see if we can make this the biggest thread in the Sporty forum.

It started out looking like this:
Then the work began...
* motor got bumped to 1200 cc's
* new pistons
* new heads polished and ported
* hotter cams
* new ignition
* new chrome fork lowers
* new 21 inch chromed laced front hoop
* new 6 piston chrome PM brake caliper biting a 13 inch floating disc
* new braided steel cables and lines
* new 7" chrome headlight
* new Crossroads fork brace
* new Crossroads competition pegs
* new Crossroads Clip-on Bars
* new solo saddle
* new turn signals front and rear
* new Arlen Ness oil pressure gauge
* new chrome mini speedo
* new beefier progressive front springs
* new Screamin' Eagle exhaust with header wrap
* new Ohlins rear suspension
* new mirror chrome 16 inch solid rear hoop
* new Dunlop rubber
* new Ramflo air intake
* new '31 ford taillight with custom milled mounting bracket
* new color matched custom paint on tank
After which, the scooter looked like this:
In terms of what's next... black anodized levers and a possible new paint job... jet black with
white racing number circle on tank.

RE: "List Your Mods" Thread
I know I have said this before but, damn killer bike! Where did you get your Ramflo and your taillights/signals?
The Ramflo came from these guys: http://www.trak-tek.com/index.html
I will check some paper work and let you know where the taillight came from.
I'm thinking Licks but I'm not certain of that.
This winter's project involved taking this:

RE: "List Your Mods" Thread
Started with a Stock 2007 XL1200C..
So far I've added a solo seat, motherwell solo rack, new footpegs, layback license plate with relo, new grips, braided cables, smoke front and rear light covers, skull gascap, swingback derby cover, hd logo air cover, and a skull timing cover. When I get my tax refund I also plan on adding SEII's, air, the ECM download and the Kuryakyn smoke LED taillight assembly.
This picture shows some mods but not all..I'll post a new pic once I'm finished with everything
...You know after posting these pics above I noticed those outside pics doesn't do this bike's color justice...in those pics the bike almost looks babysh*t green...Here's another that shows the actual color better..it has more of a gold tint to it:
