I got a 2001 XLH883, and ordered the CycleShack S/S bolt-ons, K&N, Accel plugs, and 883 re-jet kit from Sorgys on eBay. This Sorgy is one cool guy! He spent time with me on the phone talking shop and how to pay the tax.
I believe he sends you a 45 and a 170 jet in his re-jet kits (9.00 bucks).
I put in the new jets, the K&N (and oiled it), the new plugs, and installed the Cycleshacks. I had to use 1-1/2 turns on the set-idle to get my plugs to look right. I dont think I have to do much with the needle shim, as 60 miles of hard riding with a couple of buddies with twin cam 88's for 60 miles produced some nice looking plugs.
There IS a difference in performance, and the sound is awesome! (cant wait for the morning when I can play some music for the neighbors).
I like the Cycleshacks, but they are LOUD!!! If you like to cruise with others and do late night poker runs, you feel like you have a cop magnet. I'm not used to the new barking tone the bike has (but I do LOVE IT). I just dont like attracting cops where ever I go (I feel for the V&H owners).
For those considering it, give s0rgy on eBay a try, as the recommendation for xlh883s work.
