Sportster
Hey everyone. I’m new here and wanted to thank you for allowing me to join. I have a 1977 Sportster 1000. It’s pretty stock and I’m wanting to do some conversions on it and change the look. I was wondering if you might know of any good web sites for buying lowering kits, drum to disc conversions. Any suggestions would be awesome.
Look for to chatting with you guys and about these amazing bikes.

This is THE BEST Sportster Resource!
Take a minute and please put at least your state/country in the LOCATION FIELD of your profile so we can better help you when you need it - Your climate, temps & altitude can make a difference to suggested fixes... ( the STATE FIELD does not show on posts so you need to use the LOCATION FIELD)...
CLICK HERE - then scroll down to 'Additional Information' and look for the field labeled 'LOCATION' - put your information in there - It will then show on each post you make... Look for this:
Post a PICTURE of your ride - whether building, modding or totally stock... Host the image on a photo website (but not photobucket.com), get the link with the "[IMG][/IMG] tags" included & paste that directly into your posting (If you don't have the "[IMG][/IMG] tags" included, then use the Image Insert icon  along with the web address of the image)...
There are various sections to the XLForum - You can pick a section that is related to your problem/info, open that section and read the sticky threads on the first page - Then post your comment in an existing thread or create a new one to get information for your specific question... For new threads, make the title specific to your problem or info...
This is the index of sections: http://xlforum.net/forums/index.php
Be sure to read some/many of the FAQ/HowTo threads (including how-to post pictures) here:
http://xlforum.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=16
The XLForum Sportsterpedia has a lot of technical info to review:

The 77' Sportster, 77' Superglide Low Rider and 77' Electra Glide were some of the prettiest bikes made from that era.

Welcome. Rather uncommon to still have a stock bike from that era, just saying.
