    Guys,had the bike about 10 days now and have finally taken a pic to share with you.It's a 2008 xl883 ,pretty stock except for having the baffles drilled out so she sounds great.Next step will be a new ac,I was thinking a SE stage 1 and maybe a fuel pack or similar .I would welcome any comments/suggestions from the forum.Can anyone from WA recommend where to take the bike for service/repairs/mods in the Perth metro area.

    Cheers,Scott

     Looks great Scott. Are the bars stock? They look a fair way forward but it might be the angle. I really like the 883L bars because they come back so far but I didn't think the XL883 bars were much further forward.

    Taffymarsden,I think the previous owner had a spacer put under them but I havent looked at any other bikes to be able to compare.As you say, the angle of the photo may be a factor

    Cheers,Scott
