Is that a 2001 XLS? I want details on that fork swap!
I'm slowly building my dirtster/street tracker and have been stumbling over finding a good front end solution.

I like it!!!!
it looks suspiciously like a 98-03 XL1200S Sportster Sport to start with and im leaning later as the 4 pistons bolt up...
I have 2 sets of of those shocks and forks/triple trees in my shed... Those are the showa compression rebound and preload adjustable bits. I found them way to softly for the street....
the XR1200X Kit Bits are 10X better... I have them on my 99s and 83XR Tracker
