I've been looking at, and thinking about, the Harley Iron 883 for some time now. I've thought they were cool since they came out in 2009. After buying a used XL1200L Sportster last year, it's really got me thinking about the Iron again. Went up to Northwest Harley-Davidson in Lacy, Wa. yesterday just to look, and was talked into taking one for a test ride. Well I almost rode her home, but couldn't quite get to terms with the price. So I came home to think this over before jumping right in and taking it...
I love the idea of this small, simple, rough & tough little bike. Very drab looking, so it doesn't scream "Look at me!" or "Watch how fast I can go!" It reminds me of the UJM's of the '70's & '80's. Love this bike... I will absolutely get one of these Iron 883's!
As for the test ride, it was awesome! I really thought it was going to feel under powered, but that was not the case at all. Even though I was given very strict restrictions on how to treat the new motor, she performed very well within those parameters. I still can't believe they have test rides like this for customers - how cool!
