Hey,
Around 2 weeks ago I saw an 883 Iron and completely lost it. Before then I had absolutely no interest in bikes, apart from watching biker build-off, American Chopper, etc) and have always been a car guy (I have a black F6 Rspec).
Since then I've sat my license and am now waiting on a friend to do QRIDE. In the meantime I'm trying to decide whether I want the 883 or 1200. I plan on making many mods.
Looking forward to learning a lot.

Welcome back Narakasbull thats great you are taking up bike riding.Just remember you have to have eyes in the back of your head and you have to have a feel of the traffic around you and it helps to have a loud bike.
LOL - indeed, how dare I want to change my displayname.... @Etch: Cheers will keep that in mind. I've never had a crash in my cars in over 15 years and don't plan now. I've always been someone who scans traffic conditions and drives accordingly. I know a bikes a whole different world though ;P
I've been looking at exhausts (octane) from sikpipes - www.sikpipes.com. They don't appear to be baffled in which case they should be LOUD Does anyone know anything about how well these run? Assume I will need a retune...
I've just downloaded the 2010 HD sportster service manual as I thought that would be a good place to start familiarising myself with "stuff".
Cheers.
