Customized Harley Sportster 883 |
Welcome To HarleyDavidson Accessories Guide blog.
One of the biggest
thrills of riding and owning a Harley bike is customizing it to bring your own
reflection of yourself to your bike. If you already owned a Harley Sportster 883 and planning to customize it to match your style and budget, I suggest,
you go to different dealers, ask around, seek ideas. Or thumb through The HD
catalogue and you will get plenty of ideas.
The sticker price of a fresh out of the factory Harley Davidson
883 is just the first expense you are
going to be making. Expect to shell out a few grand or more if you want to
trick it out.
One helpful
idea to keep in mind when you begin customizing your Harley Davidson 883 is to
start with larger Harley Davidson accessories. Focus on the vital few
that will have the biggest impact on the bike aesthetic side like, wheels and
tires. Custom paint and design will mirror your attitude and express your
bike’s inner soul. Work your way all the way doing to subtle details that
support your choices.
Here are more ideas:
1. Riding position-
---If you want to be
closer to the cockpit or controls buy Reach solo seat.
----Accessorize with
brassy or chromed highway pegs, mid controls, forward controls depending which
fit you best.
----The way you stretch
your arms ,wrists and hands depends which handlebars you feel comfortable the
most-low rise, drag bars, mini-ape or full blown ape-hanger.
----Install lowering
suspension kit if you are vertically challenged, so you can straddle the bike
easily and be surefooted at stop lights and when parking.
---- Order
reduced-diameter light- effort clutch and brake levers or hand grips.
2. Purpose/Function-
----If your main activity
is just daily commute to and from work you need sport windshields.
---If you have a thing
for long motorcycle tours you need-ventilator datable windshields, saddlebags,
tour packs, passenger seat and backrest, tool pouch etc.
3. Performance—
---If you want more grunt
from your Harley Sportster 883 you can swap jugs and pistons or buy HD
conversion kit and turn it into 1200.
----Upgrade mufflers, air
cleaners and pipes.
----Trade your fuel tank
with a larger one.
Be sure the pipes match
performance upgrades to the intake & fuel management systems.
4. Appearance---
--Put design and stickers
such as skulls and flames even flags.
--- Chrome in all the
right places.
---Tail lamp/Head
lamp/air cleaner cover
---Big fat tires.
Upgrading is a never-ending process. It’s half the fun of riding.
There is a complete cornocupia of Harley
bolt-on accessories to make your motorcycles shimmer, slower and heavier.
There is a culture as well as
sub-culture built around the
recognizable brand. When you ride a Harley you get a feeling of liberation, a
sense of well-being that will always be more persuasive than any logical
reasoning.
But when you insert the
key into the ignition and thumb push the starter…you hear the sweet rumbling
hum and get hypnotized by the syncopated rhythms of an increased torque,..it’s magical.
