Will a sissy bar and side plates from an 83-03 fit 04 and up? Thx

I installed the track or die 39mm damper kit and now my caliper doesn’t reach. What are my options?

I am struggling so hard with my front brake and need advice. Ive been bleeding my front brake and whenever I think I'm done and put my cap back on I have absolute no front brake. Any help is appreciated before I burn my bike down

Just got my first motorcycle( 2020 iron 1200) delivered turned it on to check the oil and noticed the front fork axle nut is loosening with the engine rumble. I can’t find anything in the operator manual if it needs to be torqued to a specific amount or if I can just tighten it with a regular box and open wrench. Anyone have the answer?

Lads and Lasses, i am a broken man, riding one evening and without warning or prior indications, engine just stopped as i was on the motorway, after failed attempts at restarting i got her home and started my long journy at finding out im not as handy as first i thought, so checked fuel, checked carb, checked battery, All seem fine, moved onto spark, no spark from plugs, i thought maybe faulty ht cable? but unlikely both ht cables would go man down at the same time, it was firing off both cylinders prior to break down, so moved to coil, multimeter showing just under 3 ohm for the coil plugs and just under 11k for the ht conections (see Attatched pics), is this sufficient, could my coil be bad? im at a lsoss and need some direction before i start throwing money at this with no fix, thanks for any advise in advance you guys are legends!!!

Dealer online has a decent 2003 xl883 custom and says it has 4100 miles for $3,500. I wanted to check it out but the picture if the odometer shows 41819. Claims it has a big bore kit also. Seems sketchy to me.

I was thinking of the short stealth 2-1 pipe originally.

But short 2-1s have a torque dip at low RPMs that I don't want to risk.

The superstreet seems to show decent dynos, but these dynos are from SnS themselves.

Any firsthand experience

A little more progress

Im ordering some 13" progressive 412's. They sounded like a great part from the searching I've done around here. I just have one more question before I push my order through. I'm about 250lbs and 6ft. Should I do the HD springs? My wife will ride with me sometimes. She is average build. Not a twig. I figured I could crank the preload up some when she is with me. Im not talkin touring trips. Im talkin a hour. Maybe run to dinner together. Bop around town kinda thing. I just ordered a le pera tailwhip for her butt to ride on. So, HD or standard springs? Thanks for all the help!

Does anyone have the HD Empire mirrors? Can you comment on how the compare size-wise and placement to the stock mirrors? They look like they would be pretty similar but have only see pics of them on larger bikes.

I relocated my ECU to the side of my battery so I could put a sully seat on. Does anybody know of a smaller battery that will work? So my ECU does not make my side panel stick out..

I have a 2004 Harley sportster 1200 xl I had to relocate the ecm to put a sully seat on so I put my ecm on the side of my battery but the side panel for the battery is sticking out some cause of the ecu . Does anybody know of a smaller battery that may benefit this for me

I started taking my bike apart a little over a week ago to put some new clutch plates in. I broke something in the process, so it’s been sitting while I wait on the new part to come in. I can’t for the life of me remember where this came from?
