H-D Sportster Iron

I was reading MCN and found the Sportster Iron 883 is available at £5300 which is a lot cheaper than I expected, and about the same as an ER-6n which I would have looked at instead.. I would love one myself.... REALLY love one!

I was looking on youtube and found a couple of cool videos

The original Harley Davidson video

With new music

I actually think the new music is better, and fits nicely

The only thing they forgot to endorse was the minuscule gas tank, so you can stop and refuel every 34 miles.  :D

Yeh, so not much more than that. Compared to the HArley prices of £10 for the larger bikes that I'd seen

I actually liked the look of the Iron 883, but to be honest Ive seen some rat bikes and bobbers that cost half of what this thing costs and are way cooler.  Granted they took some sweat and time to turn them into what they were but I just don't think the factory bought "bobbers" and even "choppers" are as cool as the garage built ones.

by the way was the dude going to buy parts for his brand new iron 883 or what?  What the hell is Harley trying to send a message about here?

actually i ride an 883 and yes the tank is small but its not meant to be a go on a road trip bike. That said, i can go 200 miles on a full tank before i have to fill up, and i don't ever plan on being that far away from a gas station.
