I saw this post years ago and every time I revisit this it still looks great. Also it gave me some ideas for my own XR.😊 Hope you’re still enjoying your bike. Cheers 🍻
Hi! I bought the Harris number board and it actually works ok with the original Harley yokes. The 2 upper holes are the same width apart as the holes in the yokes so I used thick cable ties and routed them through the holes...with the black washers that harris supply works great and no need to drill! The lower hole can fit the same type cable tie that just goes back to the brake pipe bolt in the middle of the lower yoke! Works and looks great! Carbon cowl is cool too! :)
Harley davidson logic - launch best bike during global recession at a premium wonder why it doesnt sell, cut the line just as the economy is recovering enough that motorcycle sales are steadying out.
One of the best I've seen. You have a good eye for build a good bike from great parts. All I would do is try it with spoked rims and billet hubs so to capture a little more that old school flat track style... Congratulations!
Hi, sorry for late reply....the ohlins is S36PL model for Harley Sportster fits to any sportster frame and fit XR just fine, i even added the Vance and Hines hight adjuster if wanna go racing for more ground clearance...and handle bar is from FreeSpirits.....hope it helps...cheers...
Beautiful. A vast improvement over any of Harleys stock units. Those Vance & Hines pipes far more Tastefully proportionate then the grossly oversized ones originally used. I'm sure you don't deserve all the credit though as you have done this under the stern supervision of that glamorous cat lying on your porch.
Thx man..it was 2010 XR1200...glad it turns out that way, specially after the twin motorcycle carbon tail fitted, makes the tank pops out, thank you for your comment....cheers
Got the full Termi system fitted on mine now! Not that loud, but much better power and revs much easier! Still need to copy all your detail changes....haha!
I like the white tail unit but I understand what u mean. The carbon looks so rich in texture! I think pained whit with black stripes of unpainted carbon maybe. May do that with mine! Still waiting for Termi to open so I can get my new race system shipped!!!!! Lazy italians! Haha!!
hahahha....no problem man...and the length is same as standard 360mm, sorry forgot to mention...Olins will launch front forks for XR on July.....that's what i aim for my next mods, and also some Termi or Zard pipes...yummmm
Hahahaha....I was just about to buy the V&H race system.....BUT....I have just bought the Termi 102 dB race system with the dual cans also!!!! It is more exotic than the V&H which is very angular and 'American'! I love the V&H on your bike, but I see why you have changed....I was just thinking the same. I will get a video posted when all is done! :-)
Rapaz tenho q tirar o chapeu pra voce pq esta um espetaculo sua moto, na minha opiniao eu so nao teria nada em volta do farol, mas essa e minha opiniao e independente dela estou batendo palmas pra sua criatividade.Parabens "ride safe"
where did you get the lower earring ( belly pan) with kick stand provision? I am interested in the Vance and hines exhaust if you are selling that set up. thanks
Haha...thanks! I can recognise much of the stuff, but ....haha... 1 Bars? HD? 2 Risers? Free Spirit? 3 Tail section in Carbon? Twin Motorcycles? 4 Air intake in carbon? No idea...haha! 5 Front disc? ...is the tail section the same shape as the original HD one...looks cool! My wife will kill me but I will die a happy man! LOL
Thanks! No, I won't buy the 'normal' pipe...it's the V&H race pipe or nothing! Why do you want to change yours???? I am just fitting the PowerCommander 5 and AutoTune and some carbon fibre parts....mmmm,,,haha! When the bike is less 'standard/boring' I will post it on here! GodSpeed also!!! ha!!
Yours is a superior vision. I like the way you point out everything with the camera. Yes I see that shit and I love it. I agree with and want one. Iron American Dream on TH-cam. Take a ride across the promised land. Ride a Harley.
Thanks for the info. If you could list what the bike has, great. I know the Free Spirit tree's u have...gonna get them from UK, but how did you mount the Harris number plate? I love, love the H&N pipes you have!!! I need those! Did you buy the who race kit or just the pipes? Code number? There are some silver ltd edition ones but I love the ones you have with the O2 sensor holes? Where are your O2 sensors by the way? Or does it have 4 holes? Sell me that pipe if you can ship it to Spain?? ;-)
Hi....no problem...thanks! Olins make different lengths of the S36PL...what length is yours....same as the standard shock length which is 360mm....or longer? It looks the same as standard length to me? My wife hates the XR in standard form, but she saw your bike and now she loves it! I need to copy yours! Sorry! haha! Thanks!
Hi...I am soooo late into the XR thing but I really love what you've done to the bike. What Olins rears are those as there are so many different codes and yours don't seem to put the bike up too high at the back? Also what bars....haha...I want....will make one as similar as my wife will allow! LOL All the best!
Simon!!!! hahahahah...sorry been a while not replying...how's the Termi pipes..if it's not loud enough for you, try to remove the DB Killer....but maybe u'll get pull over by either the cops or babes hahhaha....sadly i've sold my bike bro...and now i'm building my new one...i'll keep you posted and tag you when it's done...hope to hear from you and upload yours here...cheersssss....
charisma filiardhi Hi!!!! Just glad you are alive as you never know...life!!! Termi pipes are really really good. At first I thought, maybe they were not worth it, but they are! They look really sexy and make a lot more sporty than the standard pipes I had...even with Termi silencers. Not loud but deep sound very powerful sounding. They seem to get louder as they get hotter...haha!! No DB killers, they are the race-only ones...even though Andrea at Termi owes me some free DB killers as they messed up my order! Italians!!! LOL Shame you sold the bike. Mine is until I die now I think as it's perfect. I tried to post a vid on here but will try again. Facebook maybe? Un abrazo amigo! :-)
Simon Horrocks send me massage on FB man....lookup Charisma Filiardhi....now i'm beginning to regret my decision on selling the bike....and begging my friend the new owner to sell me back hahahha....
Simon again!!!! LOL I really love that Vance & Hines race system and I can get one. BUT....is it strong enough for everyday....or every weekend...use? Also everyone is telling me that the V&H pipes are soooo loud, and the race one even more so? Maybe in Jakata this is not much of a problem, but in Europe maybe it's too loud? What you think? Please answer all my questions....hahahaha!! Bye!
Thanks for the info....owe you a beer! lol Will just have to ride from Spain! Haha!! You like that V&H exhaust system still? Why do you want to change? I hear below 3000 rpm it is not as strong in torque, but at higher revs is better! You find that? No more questions I promise! All the best to you bro!
sir Can you list the aftermarket parts that you have put on this bike. Thanks in advance. I just bought an 09 XR1200 WITH 2800 MILES AND I AM ABOUT TO ADD SOME STUFF TO IT.
Hey Bro....I need to know where to get a carbon scoop like the one you have fitted. You did say you got it on ebay, but I cant find that scoop anywhere!!!! LOL Any ideas! Will get my bike up on here as soon as my new mobile comes in to video it. :-)
Hi..I get your messages out of order sorry! I have that number board now.....sooo cool, but my friends hate it! But they are ignorant...haha! Show me how you have mounted it if you can, thanks! Ride safe!
Have you had tank slapper problems? If so probably get it fixed instead of band-aid All that put into bike but didn't put a Corbin seat on it. That thing you put on the headlight, really? Mirrors and levers are good detail, stock isn't bad but they left room for improvement looks and function Like the white tank cover and black tail....and the tail cleanup
But then, travelers are not obligated to follow the rules of commerce on the highways.. all the rules and regulations are actually for those who engage in commerce on the highways... like UPS or Fed Ex or a Taxi driver.. the terms driver operator, motor vehicle ect, are all terms which describe in legal terms one who is engaged in commerce on the highways.. why do you think when a cop asks you for a license, he asks for your "drivers" license or your "motor vehicle" license? You have to challenge his claim that you are engaged in commerce on the highways..
hi, i could send u pics of the mounts and set-up if u want....but i think Haris provide all the necessary mountings...i can send you pics if u want to be sure
I saw this post years ago and every time I revisit this it still looks great. Also it gave me some ideas for my own XR.😊 Hope you’re still enjoying your bike. Cheers 🍻
I'm not a Harley fan, but this is one sharp looking, well put together machine! I'd love to own a bike like this.
Me neither but this is one I will buy, some day

This is what Harley should be making
I know I am kinda randomly asking but does anybody know a good website to stream new tv shows online ?
@Elian Camilo I would suggest flixzone. Just search on google for it :)
Beautifull. Strange that sales were very low

STEERING DAMPENER , WHAT A BIKE ! NICEST XR 1200 ON THE PLANET!
Hi, sorry for late reply....the ohlins is S36PL model for Harley Sportster fits to any sportster frame and fit XR just fine, i even added the Vance and Hines hight adjuster if wanna go racing for more ground clearance...and handle bar is from FreeSpirits.....hope it helps...cheers...
Very nice XR-1200 👌
The only change that I'd make would be to put a set of clip on bars on it or possibly a set of moto bars ...
Beautiful. A vast improvement over any of Harleys stock units. Those Vance & Hines pipes far more Tastefully proportionate then the grossly oversized ones originally used. I'm sure you don't deserve all the credit though as you have done this under the stern supervision of that glamorous cat lying on your porch.
I noticed the cat cleared out when that bad boy was fired up.
Fuck dude. You have done some work. Most wouldn't see it but shit. Nice
Thx man..it was 2010 XR1200...glad it turns out that way, specially after the twin motorcycle carbon tail fitted, makes the tank pops out, thank you for your comment....cheers

Hi again...why Termi or Zard???? You want to change from the V&H race system?????
Where did you get the number plate with the light cut-out?

Michael Bruce Sorry for the late replu...i have updated my post with the list of mods....hope it helps, cheers.....

very nice, if it was mine id end up arrested in a very short time. That bike is not made to follow speed limits or any other traffic rules.
But then, travelers are not obligated to follow the rules of commerce on the highways.. all the rules and regulations are actually for those who engage in commerce on the highways... like UPS or Fed Ex or a Taxi driver.. the terms driver operator, motor vehicle ect, are all terms which describe in legal terms one who is engaged in commerce on the highways.. why do you think when a cop asks you for a license, he asks for your "drivers" license or your "motor vehicle" license?
