    Hey guys, I've picked up my first Harley on the Easter long weekend. It's only a 1200 Sportster but I'm happy with it.

    Came with Screamin Eagle slip ons, some aftermarket air filter and big wide bars and rear lowering kit

     

    Already made a few changes with more to come. So far I've done;

    TC Bros side license plate mount

    TC Bros 'Lane Splitter' handlebars

    short 1" genuine harley risers

    flipped mirrors

    slightly bobbed rear fender, removed front

    second hand solo seat

    bare metal tank & fender

     

    Future plans are to bob the rear further, change indicators, some performance upgrades and put a lot of kms on it.

    Hi birty and welcome. Nice mods, looks different and industrial. I like it. Curious if you got any coating on the bare metal surface at all (for protection of the metal)? A stainless steel (non chrome) pipe would look good on it too if you were inclined. Also good to see that your bike wears a hat

    Slowly making some changes to my bike, went from bare metal to matt black, raised the tank, relocated ignition and coil, new air filter, blacked out indicators. Still plenty more to do.

    Hi mate and welcome.
    Bike looks a lot better now.
    Maybe get some manifold pipes made so you can wrap them and put the slip ons back on.
    Watch out for cops though with the side number plate and no front guard.
