Default SoCal Iron 883

Hello Everyone!

New member here from Southern California. I have rode street and dirt bikes previously but just purchased my first Harley, a Iron 883 which I plan to mostly use as a commuter for work from the Anaheim area to South LA.

I have already been scrolling through several threads the past couple weeks and seen some great looking bikes and ideas!


I am still breaking in the new moto but so far its been great to be back on two wheels and in the near future looking to switch to drag bars and relocating the speedometer. So any suggestions here are greatly appreciated!

Best regards,
Bruce
