Hey guys. I'm new to the forum. I have a 2009 XL883L. I bought it with a set of drag bars installed and a custom paint job which is actually pretty nice. I'm not a huge fan of the drag bars. I'm only 5'7 so with the Mid controls it makes the seating position uncomfortable. Also, if any of you guys know anyone wanting to swap Forward controls for Mids send them my way. I'm not normally very chatty, just wanted to get it all out there. Thanks.

Welcome from New Mexico. After a bit you'll be able to advertise those bars. Check the stickies at the top of the new members forum for details.
