Tony sent me pictures of his lowered 2001 XL 883 Sportster from I believe England.  The email address was a .co.uk anyway.  Aside from the chrome which blinded me upon opening the first picture check out this lean and mean Sportster.  Tony lowered it 3.5 Inches in the rear and 2 inches in the front.  The triple trees have a 4 degree rake giving this Sportster an improved stance.  It doesn't just look pretty however.  This 883 has Nitrous, check out the NOS bottle in the upper left corner.
