New Bike - Need help identifying work done.

Hi all, first post here.

I'm hoping someone could shed some light on my new sportster. 2004 Cruiser. Screaming Eagle Heads, will these be 1200? S&S Pipes. Slip on? Seller told me some kind of new coil or something under the seat for higher compression on starting? Does this sound correct?
I know there isn't much info here but any insight to work that could have been done on this bike would be great.
Cheers.

Welcome to the site. It might be a good idea to post some pictures regarding the components you're talking about. That would make them easier to identify and explain.

Cheers chaps. I'm in Gold Coast, south east QLD.

Good one. Yes, it looks like this bike has been upgraded from an 883 to 1200 using Harley Screamin Eagle heads. The heads are clearly 1200 heads. It looks like the original 883 cylinders have been bored out for the conversion. This is perfectly fine. And yes you have the S&S slip-on mufflers. The owner was probably talking about the ignition module that was upgraded as a result of the conversion. This would be under the seat on that model. Sounds like a nicely done 883/1200 conversion to me.

Thanks mate, this is my first harley so im very eager to learn more about it.
The exhaust look like slip ons to me? and there is an aftermarket air cleaner?
The guy also mentions new ignition but I wouldn't understand a need for this?

Thanks again.

Great, thanks. Yes he did. The bike fits everything I was looking for including the 1200 conversion. I'm just trying to get my head around what has been done to get there. Really appreciate your knowledge mate, thanks.

How does your bike compare before and after the conversion?
