Finally pics of my new 883c. i just finished putting on the chrome parts, but am a little bummed on the horn arrangement, the left side of the bike looks bare without a horn cover. Does anyone know if i can put a dummy horn cover on to dress up the left hand side.

The 1200c has the Horn on the left hand side, It is easy to fit one on to your bike ,
You can pick up the HD Cow Bell horn covers on Ebay for about 5 bucks, you will have to change your Choke bracket to one from a 1200 c as the horn mounts to it ,
I dont know why the 1200 c has the Cow Bell Horn and the 883c dosen't,
I geuss the little engine hansn't got the power for the extra weight..................
Yeah kingchops the engine covers are slip on's from www.robscyclesupply.com ebay store, all up for all 3 covers was around 200 bucks delivered from US.
Nice bike...
For my 883C i got a genuine HD horn kit but the horn sat way too low for my liking and the mounting bracket had a daggy bit hanging off it to fit models with a choke. So i modified the mounting bracket so it sits "up" rather than hangs "down" and i cut off the daggy choke bit. i bought the horn kit off Ebay from the US.. it cost about 80 dollars (with shipping) if i remember right. It might pay to note that the kit requires the tank to be removed, so its not a 5 minute job. here is a pic of the result...

Outback, that pic of you bike shows a pretty neat detail, you have any other pics?
Bernie, i posted some pics a couple of weeks ago.. titled "2007 Sportster Pics" . The avatar pic i use is from a photo a mate took for me at our recent show 'n shine. He said it was the only one of my bike that turned out any good..
The wiring harness connected under the tank if i remember correctly..
OF... Sorry but i havent been online for a while and will chase up a pic of that bracket if it is still needed .
