Default That Was Then....This Is Now

Just a couple of before and after pics to show the modifications I have made to my Sportster since I bought it 2 years ago.

November 2004



November 2006


The bike had already had the Stage 1 tuning with the SE Baloney cut pipes fitted so the first thing I did was change the tyres, replacing the old, hard, cracked Dunlops with new Avon Venoms. The braided front brake line was next, followed by the Teardrop Air Cleaner.

Next came the LePera Maverick seat and removal of reflectors and lower belt guard. Longer rear shocks and progressive front springs were fitted and the bike was levelled by raising the forks through the clamps by 3/4".

A Wilwood front brake caliper and relocated front turn signals complete the changes to date. (I've also changed the horn, but you can't see that !)
