It really is. I also upgraded the O2 sensors so it's a fun as hell bike.

The mirrors down requires nothing but flipping them from side to side and remounting them.

The relocator talks about all this re-wiring... I didn't have to do anything like that.... just bolted them up and poof. DONE

It's a good looking bike in any event...and she looks like she is having fun and is happy riding it...that's the important thing.

Good on her.

I like those models. Not really liking the crash bars on it, but function over looks any day.

really? I was looking at hers but it looked like the mirrors would hit the turn signals if I just flipped them. I did think about swapping the mirrors but they still looked like they would hit. Gonna have to look again I guess.
hers is the 883 Iron but I think it's exactly the same layout as the nightster.

Well remember I moved the blinkers to the lower tripples first. Then I flipped the mirrors. It takes a bit to get use to the lower mirrors but functionally they still work great.

oh yeah that's the kit we ordered was to move the turn signals down to lower triples. they came out with a black kit that should look good on the Iron.

I have to look at this site from home once in awhile so I can see your pics. usually I can see yours but not in this thread.

Mr. Ebbs, ladies do not show their whale tails. Silly.
