Update.

Two years later. She is still in love with her trike. We'added a number of chrome bits as she sees things she likes but other than regular maintenaince she has not had a single issue with the conversion.

Here is one thing. The bike was an 883L to start with. It had a small 3 gallon peanut tank. The one addon that is worth its weight in gold for this application was the HD fuel gauge for sportsters. What with the 1200 upgrade and the additional weight of the conversion, she gets only about 130 miles out of a tank... rought half of my bike.

AlsoI found a trike dyno and that is money well spent too.

Very nice conversion. First one on a Sportster that I have seen.
