Hey Matt, Best honest review I've seen so far. Looking to get a Harley. This will be my first Harley. I have previously ridden dirt bikes, and a Suzuki GSXR 600 that I borrowed for a couple rides. I am 6'3" and 200lbs. Would it be better for me to go with a Dyna? I just want something to ride on weekend cruises 25-75 miles at a time. Thanks!
I knew you were an ugly idiot at 12:10.
HI MATT!! good overview i own a 2011 with 75k on it its been very dependable ;mine is yellow i have had so many compliments from young riders out their!! its been out in gaspe cape britain all of quebec ontario ext ext one great thing about this machine modesty and nostalgia its a great motorbike!! i do admit when on long trips i have to stop and streatch a bit and i must refuel every 200 km but thats what riding is about
GREAT Review!
Great review. I am one of those dirt bike guys you were talking about. Love the style of the bike but I am glad an honest review stating they would probably outgrowing it in year was in the review. Saved me some bucks.
anyone know the price ?
I wish they made a 1200 iron. That way the consumer doesn't have to make the 883 a 1200. The low price is what sells.
Do a review on the street 750 or street rob!
Hi, now this is just hypothetical for now (sorry, I'm a lil nervous about sales people and not yet certain I"m going to get a bike, even though you seem to be a great guy), but If I were to want an Iron 883 and in ABS when the model you carry (the Iron 883 in Black denim) doesn't have it, what options do I have if I want to buy an Iron 883 in Black Denim with ABS from you?
How much horse power do these bikes have?
"Spanner wrench"…..not "spinner".
Dude, I want that helmet, and where you get that?
This this is such a badass bike why are people saying this is a women's bike ??
The paint looks like spray can primer. Why don't they make one in navy blue or burgundy?
Love the sportster fam…. my dream bike, ever
I'm 5'6 will this bike be too big for me to ride comfortably?
What helmet are you wearing ?
Just so you know people think your an asshole when you split cars at stoplights, I've been guilty of it but whatever… I've quit being selfish and changed…
this is a really good review… actually it's the best review of this bike….
congratulations!
Crystal clear & on point👍 would love to see a 48 review frm u, thanks
can I ride with my lady on the back because it looks small
You gonna do a review of the new Roadster?
Hate it when i hear its price . Its almost double priced here in manila
thank you for the review im looking at an 883 for my possible first bike. i fit the smaller guy group at 5 9 and 170lbs. my question is im already sure if i get this bike Id do the 1200cc upgrade but im curious if i do plan on driving it freeway a good deal of the time im riding it will the upgraded engine be enough for a smaller person as myself to get up to speed on the freeway n not bog out thanks
Don't laugh now, but I recently bought a Honda PCX150 to commute and I never cared for bikes nor rode on one. Now, not only do I love riding that little scooter, but I want to upgrade to an 883. Can I do it and does it make sense to upgrade to that level of bike?
bought a 2013 last summer and have been riding it every chance I get. it's my 1st HD, and really my 1st bike. it's a great starter bike for sure. it's fast enough for freeway riding (IMO). I'm looking to upgrade with the next year, but if you're looking a starter, you can't go wrong with the Iron.

Hey Matt I'm a new rider – almost 6'2 and 190 lbs. I love the looks of this bike and the weight + CCs seem to be ideal. Would this be a good fit for me physically or should I look at another model?
hello i been looking at a iron 883 or a 72. what I like about the iron is the gas tank bigger then the 72.. they both look great.. idk what to get lol
question for you guys…what is the cheapest harley davidson bike and how much is in US Dollar
Im getting into Harley World however Im thinking about 2 optios, this iron with some updates or Fat Bob Im a little bit afraid of fat bob's tork however I wont be able to change my bike for about 5 years so thats why Im thunking about that big twin engine what do you recommend???
So is this a good beginner bike? Someone who hasn't driven a bike before?
If I wanted a longer rear fender for the 883 kind of like the low rider what would you suggest?
The lack of highway performance is a deal breaker.
I have a super low with the same kit as the super low touring except I went with the top box and hard case option now can we have a boom audio add on for this mini tour bike. So it's a 2015 super low black mini apes and detach windshield forward controls and edge cut and black diamond combo controls and mirrors foot controls. Full screaming eagle exhaust and stage one filter Roland sands cover. Detach backrest complete until and optional topbox. Like to add in a speaker set on the lids and ape hanger speakers. Also what upgrade to the suspension I was told the emulsion are great.
What's your opinion to the Superlow 883 as a first bike? Would it be better than the Street 750? Would the 883 be too big for a new rider?
Oh man if it was legal I would marry this bike hahaha
HARLEY DAVIDSON…motorcycles for Muppets who dress like the Village People.
6'0, 225lbs is this good size bike ?
Is this a good first bike? Ik a lot of people say get a used first but i don't want to go through the hassle of buying and selling. I just want a good, fun and nice bike that i can keep for a long time to enjoy my ride.
I don't understand people having trouble with these one the highway. I road mine two up, on road trips, and it could do 90mph without a problem. So passing an 18 wheeler was really easy.
Also, while the engine is reliable, the rest of the bike was not, in my experience.
I had a handful of electrical issues, all handled under the warranty, and the paint came off the tank, also replaced under warranty.
im getting on the HD scene iv done loads of research I feel this is gonna be great first choice thanks for the review
really enjoy the sportser look, im 5'9" about 180 pounds i think id do alot of local driving but id also like to drive from portland oregon to sacramento Cali when i get more experienced is it a good fit for me? based off that info
Thanks for the review. I'm about 3 months away from saving enough money to buy this baby, I can't wait.
is there a Harley Davidson bike that looks like these. but with more power? for traveling. sorry for my English. i'm from belgium
Good honest review.
I honestly expected an advert, but you Sir, were impartial.
