This is 100% a beginner's bike and I still have my 883 for 5 years, no plans on getting rid of it. Picked it up for $5k, works fine on the highway for me (I don't do long trips about 3 hours max)
How does it ride on long trips? I plan on getting a 883 to commute to work. Work is about 50 miles away. 100 miles round trip back home.
@@IAMDENNIS_24 if you are going to use a motorcycle for work everyday, and it's 100 mile trip. I wouldn't recommend the sportster. I would 100 percent go with a softail or bagger type bike. (I don't use my iron 883 as a commuter bike, I ride occasionally)
@@An_Enraged_Pig even if it’ll be my first bike you would recommend the 883?
@@IAMDENNIS_24 as a first bike I 100 percent recommend. It was my first bike! Remember the bike will only go as fast as you want it to, stay in Control and Practice.
@@IAMDENNIS_24 Dude . Commute to work , 100 miles a day ? you mad ? move closer to work or get yourself a helicopter ?
This is what I’m here for bro! I bought my Iron 883 because of you and blockhead from watching you guys. Now I understand why everybody keeps coming back to their sportsters 🔥
awesome thanks for watching man
Ive had my sportster for a while now and after 30 years of riding it is still my most fun bike to ride and commute with !! The fact that you can easily make it completely unique and a reflection of your personality during those long winter months too . The possibilities are endless . Love my sporty !!
I had a 94 1200 loved it,I'm a little stocky so I looked a little big on it so I sold it,I shouldn't have but I used the money towards my chopper build,what a nightmare that thing was to put together but it turned out like I wanted it to.
I bought 883 2001. Everyones said don’t buy it because in 3 days you’ll want a bigger bike. Nope! I’m loving my 883. I almost dropped it twice and it’s just light enough I was able to save it. Barely
I want to get a 2021 883 in deadwood green but I’m afraid that after a few weeks I’m going to regret it and wish I got a bigger bike. I just LOVE the way the 883 looks compared to the 1200.
What'd you end up buying?
1200 or 1275 it on it problem solved
Thinking of getting one, it seems perfect for a first time rider/ beginner like me
I recently bought a 883 and it was fully customized as a bobber. Its amazing except the seat and suspension.
nice man congrats those are some easy upgrades
If you ever get a chance pick up an iron 1200. You'll love it even more. Funnest harley out there once its all done up.
Have to give you a shout out I’ve been subscribed to your channel for about four months now and I have to be honest you were the one that inspired me to get into the motorcycle game but also you inspired me into getting a sportster for myself and I’m happy with it it’s a great looking bike I wouldn’t give it up for anything I have a 2020 iron 883 barracuda it’s an industrial gray and she’s a beauty
Thats great to hear man congrats on your purchase
Think the best way to put it for people with no experience looking at this bike is if you have no experience but you have confidence and you are a quick learner then it’s the right bike but if you are a new rider no experience with lack of confidence or a little scared or nervous then it probably is not for you in that case
I saw good ones in a motorcycle shop.. used which I'm going to get, due to the fact it's used and broken down.. I had a bike and braking it down phase was hard for me, I just want to enjoy the bike and ride and explore places..
I found your channel because I bought an 883 I been a fan since so I'm glad you're back on one from scratch. 🙌
Hi mate, I just got one myself. But As you can see you've never looked at the manual of the bike. You can set a preload on the rear shocks and it will make the ride much more enjoyable. It will not bottom out that easy. I as I can see it from the video, yours are pretty much on stock set up on 2-3 dots. I assuming you are not a 100-120lb, So you might need to change it to 4 or 5 Dots. I tuned mine up to 5 dots on each side and it was day and night. The previous owner had it also on less then 3 dots (probably still stock), and he was about a same 180-190lb like myself. But as soon I sat on it just bottomed out. Lot of people don't really recognise this and they just buy new shock, which is fine and I'm sure they are way better then the stock but you can save yourself some cash by just doing some adjustment. And it might work for you.
You were spot on with your review, I bough it for the city and short trips. Perfect for that. I have a Stage 1 V&H on it and a few other mods. Love it and definitely will keep it for a few yeas.
👍🏽 nice man
right on good spot
absolutele legit review..... good looking bike. Appreciate the honesty on the freeway riding.
👍🏽
Everyone seems to go back to the sportster eventually 🤘
its something about them
Absolutely true…..
Just bought this bike yesterday. Your review helped me a lot. Tq bro!
Great review....lost sound a few times around the 8 min and 19 min mark fyi
thanks im having some issues with my audio idkn what it is
Bro some of those potholes look like absolute murder haha I'll be bringing my (new to me) 2017 iron 883 home in a couple of weeks and I'm stoked to hop on and begin making some modifications. Subscribed!
I like the look ,its wicked,slim and low,,thay are le$$ than 1200s,,and the hammer kit is reliable and easy to do,,,,so i might end up whith the 883,,,if i carnt find a nightst'a,,,,marvel ☘💪
nice
Good morning,11am, watching this on the bus on my way to work 😭
Sold my bike couple weeks ago and getting the new one Monday July 12
Since I don't own a car having to take the bus :(
lol enjoy
I’m shopping but I’m liking this one. Big time. Great video too bro
I own a 2016 iron 883 stage one plenty power and plenty fun. It is my daily
You look cool on it bro, James Deanish.👍🏼
I got the 2018 Breakout for my first bike. That fat rear tire sold me, plus I didn't wanna get a beginner bike just to learn then have to turn around sell it only to upgrade anyway.
Love your videos! I’ve been looking into a 1200 but I always go back and forth with the 883 always bouncing back
thank you
I'd go with a 1200,more power,you dont have to use it but once you get used to it your gonna wanna get something faster and 1200s go pretty good,and with straight pipes they sound nice.
Just purchased the 2021 Iron 883 Snake Venom.
congrats man
I love your video, lots of good info you gave. I am 5'5" and just bought the 2021 Iron 883. I sat on it at the dealership and felt that the mid control was not comfortable (Because ima lil thick below the waist, lol) so i had them put forward controls on for me which is on back order. What's your opinion on someone my height being able to reach the forward controls on the 883?
Thank you for making this video!
Some V&H radius 2 into 2 would look siiiick on that
Thanks 4 the entertainment while taking the bus 2 work ✌🏻
I am planning on getting one. Just one question: Coming from a Hayabusa do you think the Harley can still put a smile on my face? I am going to keep the Hayabusa, but it is a stressy bike to ride, as you are always too fast. So I´d take the Harley out on our country roads and cruise around. What do you say? Greetings from Austria. Chris
Just bought a 2022 iron 883 for 15,000 brand new is that a good deal? Feel like I paid to much since I heard you say you paid less for yours but I absolutely love it.
That's an absurd price for a sportster. Yoh should have shopped pre owned for an older model. These bikes have been relatively the same besides the carburetor on the 2006 and older models.
I paid 11 thousand for mine,new (2022).. it depents the State,city etc. But definitely prices are going up.
I’m actually thinking getting one with that new Venon color . Just to drive around town here in jersey . I currently have a softail slim 2016 for long rides which is very comfortable . Nice Channel pa keep up the good work !!!!
Yeah, no you’re not
I'm 5'11". Would the Sportster work for me as I learn to ride?
Wow, that suspension is brutal.
Check out simon customs tank covers for the sporties!
Yeah I agree, after 4-5 hours of riding, my ass hurts on the stock seat.
My bike stock awesome video
thank you
Hey man, I am new to your channel. I ve been looking for gloves just like yours for a while now. Sorry if you already answered this question but could you share brand and where to buy them? Thanks alot. Well I spoke too soon you say that at the end of the video, thanks 😁
why is the engine warning light "on" constantly? Because of your modifications?
Thanks for this video! I’m getting the snake venom color soon 1st Harley after riding sports bikes for 10 years! So excited!
Hey, bike looks awesome and my choice of first big bike here in the UK. I have seen there is a problem with burning pipes on your foot. How is that overcome?
I have one 2017(Olive) iron883. 😊
Hey buddy I dig your videos, also I am getting ready to mod my bike as well But my budget isn’t very big. Was wondering if you are gonna sell or give away your passenger sporty pegs.?? Anyway keep doin what your doing man.
not sure yet
French 883 Rider...is that a French Flag in your Garage ?....by the way the 883 on small europeans roads is just perfect...
The seat sucks but after you replace it the rest of the bike is a great reliable daily driver you can go anywhere on.
Why has the price jumped so high for the 2022 model? Is there any difference’s between 2020-2022?
No...prices are jumping around everywhere my friends. But Harley dealers will always take advantage of it.
8:14 You interrupt yourself, cut to a long interlude, come back with no voice audio, then suddenly resume in the middle of a different sentence. How was this missed in editing?
edit : and 19:11
sorry if this was mentioned and I missed it, but how about your oil light staying on? I have 2019 too and I've been having the same issue.
All u need to know is the only people who don't sell their Harley for a different brand within a few years are people who don't ride em.
Sportster S?
im not worried about the lean angle...im afraid to lean anyways.......LOL
😂😂😂😂
Bar hopping?? The Cops ears just perked up.
What do you recommend I get for a nice deep solid sound since I hate the stock sound?
Buy some rush slip ons. I had them on mine and it sounded lovely. Get a screaming eagle intake for the stage 1. You'll have to tune it but it'll be worth it. With just slip ons no tune necessary though.
Bassani shortys ugh so sexy
what was that red light around the 14:40 mark?
The red light means there’s a light issue. Usually it means either a bulb is out, but I’ve had it when the brake light connector wasn’t disengaging. It looked like my brake lights were always on.
I see two lights burning and I get nervous............1 was gas, what was the other?
most of the time its from a faulty light or something simple i need too check it out
Have you Dial in you suspension yet?
I just adjusted the pre load on my 16 iron
Harley dixcontinued it as they only want to sell high-end now.
Would this be a good bike for a first time rider? Also, I'm just 5'7 tall and I plan to take the bike riding course before purchasing my first bike.
Yes it is. It was my 1st bike. Great commuter bike. I even went on long 6hr rides on it. Suspension sucks off the bat. Don't upgrade anything and just enjoy it. Learn and then you eventually get a new and bigger bike. I purchased a lemon unfortunately and wasted too much money upgrading it. Still, perfect for commuting.
Also I'm 5'7.5". Was good for me. Just had to raise the back shocks a bit to make it comfortable since I'm also 200lbs.
Shit, I already put 29k miles on my iron though. I love to ride the fuck out of my bike lol.
what are those gloves youre using?

@@Marvelkid87 they dont have the size that i want for the gloves i end up buying two flannel shirts ,a hoodie and a hat instead😅
🖤
Lots of lights on. Don't blow it up
If you don’t have any experience riding a motorcycle in your entire life, this is not a beginner’s bike. I think only those people especially mens, with big egos would say that.
When you say a beginners bike it should not be greater than a 250cc.This bike is pretty heavy and expensive to own.
Why expensive to own
@@brianhuber8331 because I was born not wealthy.
They’re called that because after a year you’ll just have a pile of rusted iron

"What to know before buying an Iron 883"
"Get a 1200 instead."
Absolutely agree, that's what I did and glad I did it. The 883 is cool but you'll get bored of it quickly. The 1200 is where it's at by far.
@@parkersgarage4216not for a beginner, 1200 will get a rookie hurt.
@@mitchell3877 i disagree, i was a rookie w a 1200 and had no trouble at all. you simply gotta ease yourself into it and get used to it. the 883 will bore you alot quicker for sure. i rode an 883 and god was it weak. i went from a grom to a 1200 sportster. that was a hell of a transition. if anybody shoulda been hurt it was def me.
Yeah, the advice is don’t buy it
