hello everyone,
I am new to this site. Just bought my 2002 XL1200C almost a week ago.
I am from NY. I previously had a 1978 CB400a (hondamatic) if anyone has ever heard of that bike. I only bought that because i have only been riding since this past august. But i outgrew that bike real fast. only bought it to get the feel of riding before i bought something bigger. But anyway i dont want to write to much so if anyone has any info or maybe these parts that i need let me know.

does anyone have a full set of mid controls for a 2002 XL1200C. The forward controls are a little to far forward for me and i am also used to mid controls as well so i would like to stick with what i am used to. also does anyone know some good webpages to find sportster parts. i want to get a pull back riser as well to make the bike more comfortable for me. I have looked at J&P Cycles but i was wondering if there were any other places to look for parts.
thanks,
mike

Welcome to the Forum!!

I should have the Mid-controls from my '03. Find out if they'll work and I'll sale them real cheap!! PM me if your interested in Buying them.

I Like your Avatar!!! I Have a t-shirt just like that and use the saying in my signature!!!! :D

One of the guys in here sent them to me. (I think it was planb). His only request was that I pay postage and pass them on if I couldn't use them. They didn't fit my '89 so I'll pass them on to you with the same provision.

Welcome to the forum, Mikeli 77!

I remember when those Hondamatics came out...must be a sign of advancing age... :p

must be a sign of advancing age... :p

It is and you obviously are :laugh

i have received the mid-controls thank you willprevale for sending them to me. they worked great.

I met a pretty girl about a dozen years ago who had one of those HondaMatics. Interesting bike. She was a teacher - her students thought she was veeerrrrry cool to have a bike. [This is important if you are going to teach children.]

My pleasure. Enjoy :tour

I just bought my wife a 2005 XL1200C and she too would rather have mid controls. If anyone has them from a 04 or 05 "R" as take off's I would like to purchase them also. She came off a 250 NightHawk as a begining bike.

Still at the dealer's (new purchase) having it lowered for her and pick up this coming week. She demo-ed a 883L and loved it. She liked the color (limited edition MetSand & MetTeal) and I liked the bigger tank (I won't have to stop for her to gas up as often).

Ping me off line if possible.

Rock on. That is very cool. I am sure she will enjoy it. I have a lowered 2001 XL1200C and I think it is the greatest thing ever. Granted, I am 6'-1" so the lowering wasn't a necessity but it still rocks!
