Anyone know where I can get a good deal on some forward controls for a 2009 Sportster 883L?

You might try e-bay; other than that, I think a "good deal" is gonna be tough to come by.

E-Bay or CL has them for $40-50 bucks

You can also get extentions is ya needem

That's what I was thinking since its a new model. I had checked e-bay before but didn't see anything. Just did another search. Best price I've seen so far.

Has anything changed in 2009, from the 2008 model? I don't think it did.....

The nice part is HD finally dot rid of all that BS with forward controls and "After-thought mounting" and put mounting bosses on the frame for them.....

Best get "good" forward controls. These are CONTROLS after all.

I recently got a set of Custom Chrome from American Classic Motors for $247 plus shipping for my 06. Parts looked very good. Try them.

Don't throw your old standard controls away just yet. You may want to go back to them after you ride awhile. I had to go with the standard set up because the forward controls were killing my back. Around town was fine, but anything over 50 miles was very painful. If you are one of the lucky ones than can tolerate them, good luck. If not you can always go back...

:thumb I never throw away good parts I take off of anything. They get labeled and placed in the man shed

Got the controls in Monday evening. :thumb

Completed the install last night and drove it to work this morning.

They work great. I sit in the seat much better and it's a more comfortable ride for me.
