2020 IRON 883 FIRST RIDE & REVIEW | Harley Davidson Sportster Starter/Beginner Bike | Top Speed 

My buddy ended up TRADING IN his brand new 2020 Iron 883 after just 2 MONTHS of ownership 🤯 Check out this video explaining why he was unhappy with his Iron 883 purchase...😕 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3xQQCci3EAQ.html

I bring my iron 883 home this coming Tuesday. It’s my first bike. I’ve also been seeing nothing but bad reviews on this being a terrible first bike but seeing this dude happy is making me excited to bring my 2020 iron 883 home here soon

I've been riding over 20 years, and I would never recommend the Sportster as a starter bike. It's a great bike, and like you said, it's a great bike to grow into. But it's one of the heaviest bikes in its class, and it's top heavy at that. It's not that powerful, but it has enough torque to get you in trouble. The Sportster is the best building platform in motorcycles. This bike is still more than enough to get you in trouble if you don't have any experience riding. It's a great bike to get more experience on, and build confidence, but it's still not the ideal bike for riders with no previous experience. I currently own 2 Sportsers, and I love them both, so I can speak to this. Honda's 600 shadow, or Yamaha's 650 v-star are much better first ride bikes. The Sportster is a great bike for the riders who are more about the ride than going super fast. But keep in mind, like any bike, these bikes can be made to go extreme fast. My 88 sporty is on a Pauchgo rigid frame, and has a 883 Harley to Buell xb9 1200cc conversion on it with a lot of engine upgrades, and it will scream. Start in the 600 cc range, get more comfortable and confident, and then step up to the Sportster, or another bike of your choice. There's never any shame in starting small, and moving up through several different bikes to find what you want. Any ride can get you into trouble, so at least minimize the risk with a bike that's suitable for your experience levels. Stay safe and enjoy the ride.

been riding 125ccs for near on 4 years, and i'm just about to buy one of these, much love from the UK man, enjoyed the video:)

First time watching your video, yo props on your editing and quality. Those short slowmo clips! Fire!!!!

Excellent review of the lil Iron 883. I recently bought a 2018 Iron and I’m loving it as a fourth bike in the garage. Find myself picking it for day to day riding. Commuting, running small errands, just goofing off... Your drone and music work are awesome, keep up the good work!

I think we're these Sportsters really shine is in long-term ownership. How long they last and out easy to rebuild they are. Now if somebody's always chasing the most exciting bike and doesn't mind Trading in their motorcycle every few years to get the next most exciting thing then this bike probably isn't for you.

I toured over 20 States on an 883 Sportster and it was fine. Of course I had to upgrade to a touring seat and put used Road King shocks on the back as well as a big windshield and forward controls.

I'm looking to get the Iron 883, probably a few weeks from now I hope as my first bike. This video just got me more hyped about it, thanks for posting.

recently bought this bike godly on the streets definitely a great starter bike

The throttle on the 2019+ iron 883's getting stuck seems to be a manufacturing issue. I have a '19 and I ended up crashing in a sharp corner 3 hours after leaving the harley dealership; because the throttle stuck open halfway through the clutch release coming out of the corner. The back tire came out from under me as a result of the stuck throttle, high rpm clutch engagement and lean angle. Adrenaline kept me moving to run over and pick it up probably 200 feet away from where I landed and rode that tough SOB home; got some mean road rash, a fractured wrist, and thankfully my backpack kept my head with no helmet on, off the road. Took it up to the same harley dealership where I got it and they said "we'll fix the throttle", but everything else that is supposed to be covered under new vehicle warranty which got damaged(including the bent forks, dent in the tank, and bent bars) are up to my own dime and insurance to fix. Super shitty customer service and rider protection, so whoever reads this and wants a new iron 883, check the throttle before moving an inch on that thing or you run the possibility of getting screwed out of a couple grand or more on top of the thousands you just signed for and that money doesn't even get to go to the upgrades.

Also you did an awesome job with the cinematic shots of the bike! Getting better my guy

Bro when u got out and walked around the bike in front of all those cars 🤣🤣 Mans flexed on em without even knowing it !!! 🔥🔥

Literally pulled the Trigger on this Today going to ride it in a Good sized parking lot tomorrow and once i'm comfortable and used to the Controls i'm gonna take it out with the Boiz (who helped with choosing it and are helping me learn)

I have a Gixxer 600 and Ducati V4, I just bought this bike and it’s perfect. It’s a cruiser and it gets the job done. If you want speed get a super bike, but this bike is great on the road. And the mods you can do to it 🔥🔥🔥

There's a little tension adjuster under the throttle, can flick it with either your index or thumb. Loosen it up, and it won't get stuck anymore.

Love it, and love you're energy I was smiling during all the video!

Bro I figured out what makes your videos really good and that’s the fact you don’t say um or stop talking. Your delivery is truly like you are living into the vlog. Love the music and intro. Your review was great, that bike is very similar to my Suzuki S50 Boulevard except it looks way more modern and sporty with the blackout look while my boulevard has more of a classic look. I agree with you in that I think I’m going to upgrade at some point so let me know if you ever want to sell that v rod! You might want to see if Harley will let you do a test drive on a fat boy and a fat bob. They seem similar to the v rod. By the way now I noticed the Fat Boy Arnold was riding in Terminator 2. Keep up the great vids man...

Awesome review. You can feel the bike through the screen. Ride safe!

Your V-rod absolutely kills the Sportster. I know you were like I’m never riding this again!

I dont know why but I really enjoyed watching your review haha also I like how you kept on screaming “ohohoho” hahaha

I bought that 20' Black Denim back in mid-March brand new had 8 miles on it when they dropped it at my house. It's my 1st bike, so I don't know what it's like to be on a bigger bike. It could probably use a little more oomph.I currently have around 6500 miles on it as we speak. I changed the pipes back in late April, and I'm in the process of getting the stage 1 finished. It's been a great bike for my 1st! Might have it converted to a 1250 or 1275 later down the road once my extended warranty expires, if I end up keeping her.

Stock i would say the power is comparable to a 3-400cc sport bike. Its not slow, i hate when people say that. Plenty of power, and its a vtwin air cooled cruiser. Very nice bike. I’ll probably keep this thing forever. Eventually I may put a 1250 in it, but thatd be way down the road after the 883 gets a lot of miles. 883 is all you need for the street, not too slow and not too fast. It is heavier, but it doesn’t really feel like it imo

Having never ridden a bike ever in life, I’m sold.

Love the positivity and energy!

just got one for my first bike. I don't need to go fast. love it so far. also the button above the horn you can get the rpm and gear

Hearing that purr is amazing .

I love your review!!!!! I just got one and love it. I drove all kinds of dirt bikes growing up, 2 strokes 4 strokes from 50-400 cc so this one for me is perfect for a street bike. I love the sound, the power (plenty for me right now) and the Harley rumble!! I subscribed because of your passion and honest assessment of who this is appropriate for. Yay!! Thank you!

I don’t understand why the people complain about this bike is not powerful or fast or they are like dinosaurs because they don’t put toons of luxuries or technology.,Harley Davidson is about cruising,relaxing ride if you want go fast 💨 so buy a Hayabusa 1300cc. Different bikes for different riders. I will pick up my iron 883 this Friday. Be safe out there good vibes always

2009 Iron 883 was my first bike, loved it, and miss it. I have a 2018 zx10r now, but really considering getting this bike again for a second bike.

I just bought one yesterday. Getting delivered on Monday!! Got it in scorched orange

I got a 1200 and its totally different. You should ride a 1200 and compare yourself. The 1200 sportster is the way to go though.

I love the iron but my 30 minute daily commute consists of 20 minutes down the freeway. Where I live you pretty much have to take the freeway to go anywhere.

first video from this channel. I love the enthusiasm and info ive received. I'm looking to get into motorcycles and possibly make my first purchase. time to watch all the videos! subscribed.

Yo this guy is dope af lol 😂 He is definitely motivating me to get that Iron 883 (Newer Used) just took the msf, new to the biking scene, this will be my first bike!

great video Bruh glad to see you doing your thang i been ridding since i was 12 i am over 50 now i got a old yamaha xs850 i ride daily i have met a few other brothers on bikes but not many here where i live ..stay blessed my brother and keep sharing the videos!

Car: *passes rider* Rider: “So you have chosen death”

Just got a 14' Iron 883 as a second bike coming from a 00' Suzuki 600. Love the Sportster only 300 miles on it so far but its great.

10 seconds into the video, damn def gotta sub to this guy.. awesome vibes!

Love the vid! I can tell you’re digging the ride- getting me an iron in the next week!

Looking at getting this bike as my first bike and this is the best review I’ve seen on them haha thanks man keep up the good content 🙌

Excellent presentation and editing, well done!

Thanks for making a honest review of this beautiful Harley-Davidson 🇺🇸👍🏻

Great vid and advice, however, you taking your hands off the bars whilst talking in traffic was making me nervous XD

What UP FASTLANE!!! DADE COUNTY NATE HERE!!! LOVE YOUR CHANNEL BRUH!!! Keep up the good work 🏍

You’re starting to hit 1k subscribers daily.

Great video man! I threw Vance & Hine slip on's on mine and I love it!

I have a 2015 Iron and a stage one upgrade makes a big difference with these bikes. I have no problem keeping up in group rides. I Love it. The only upgrade I'll make is to a Street Glide! A bagger anyway but I have my heart set on a Street Glide. But I do wanna test ride a Road Glide too.

Very nice review. Love the enthusiasm, very contagious.

longer rear shocks improve looks and comfort ,

You sold me with this video, thanks!!

Good review, I'm a new rider and I just bought one of these 883's! Thanks for the insight! I pick mine up next week.

just bought this bike my first ever bike 06-18-2022 im a newbie but im ready.

That was a great job, great video. I just got my 883 iron last weekend. It’s not my first bike, I had the Harley Street rod. I much prefer the 883 because it is so nimble and like you said, since I usually ride alone, I don’t care how fast it is, I’m not going after checkered flags

I was just at Man O War this weekend looking at bikes. Considering the Iron 1200 as I'm a bigger fella with some forwards on it.

Bro you are the coolest Cat on the road lol! You just emulate positivity. My man fast lane D!!!! Haha

Great Video... some people here (USA) call it a first bike. Go tell that to Eurpeans..and see what they have too say.

This my dream bike it will be perfect for me. Im in the process of getting my license

Great vid. I own a 2017 883. Very fun! Handles good and sounds awesome with slip-on's. Best sounding Harley IMO. Accurate review. 👍 Hey, that's a really special bike. Not like anything else. The people that own them and support them are not typical either. 🤗🤔

Great video and love your energy for bikes.

I just bought one I’m waiting for spring to ride it 😍

Awesome vid man very entertaining Great job 👍

Dope ass video watched the whole damn thing thanks!

in my country new conditions is $16,080 with discount. without dis count around $20,100.

Nobody: Absolutely Nobody: Slowlane: WOO HOO- HOO- HOOOOOO

Thx for the vid. Just window shopping for a born-again virgin first bike (something comfortable and to cruise with; no need to squid out) and your review helped quite a bit. Honestly, been wondering if a “training wheel” used Honda shadow/rebel so that I can just drop it around may be the better selection - but having a goal certainly helps. And nice R32 catch. I’m more of a car guy.

It’s the best motorcycle Harley makes it’s just needs the 114 in it.

There is soo many 🤔Chanels and vloger now days on RU-vid . Soo Subscribe or picking up the right chanel or vloger is like looking for Diamond in Coal mine. Soo bro you are one of Diamond🙂. The best is you know how to hold someone for 15 min👏 Good keep it up👍. And by the way Iron 883 and 1200 is one of my favourite bikes soo thanks again for sharing your view on this and show us good sceneries too.

you have great energy my friend

Reminds me of the '07 1200XLR I sold with that little peanut tank. Loved the looks and the sound. Even on the 1200, I think you'll still find it a bit lacking in the power department. I don't know what power they make now, but my 07 is said to only have had about 58.3hp. Sprinting on the roads was a lot of fun, but the highway was not enjoyable because of the short 5th gear. At 70mph, I want to say it was around 3.5 - 4K which is a lot for that EVO engine and pretty close to the end of it's power band. (Sportster Roadsters have a tach, dual front disc brakes and a taller stance for handling). I'm telling you, your 120hp, 9K redline, with powerband above 6K V-Rod is where it's at IMO. Oh, and the lack of throttle response on your V-Rod is intentional to tame it down a bit with a slipper clutch. You still manage to snake the rear-end though at intersections, lol.

I think the digital display shows the rpm

Put a 1275 kit in it.

That a beauty man. Congrats. Shits sick asf.

I was thinking of getting this but idk lol I’ve never rode any kind of bike lol so I’m afraid I won’t be able to do the gears 😂🤦🏻‍♂️ I was gonna go look at this tomorrow

What exust do u have on the bike, awasome vid man. Im 17 but I really wanna get this bike some day

After I saw that wobble I was like no thanks lol good review tho

Great video! Greetings from South germany🤙🇩🇪

Man it seems like everyone and they're brother are always ragging on the Iron 883. Newsflash people the Iron 883 is a budget Bike. That means it's not going to have all the fancy things the other Harley bikes. In my opinion give the bike a chance and test ride it before y'all bash it.

The Iron looks better than all other Harleys. It looks like a fist in an armored glove. Or an AK-47. All business.

What about those with strictly dirt bike, and E bike experience? Obviously I would assume it’s pretty transferable, leaning, head turning etc. I definitely know what not to do, growing up and hooning around, but I’d say I’m definitely more than inexperienced, if you were in my shoes, would you say this is a good call?

I like bike`s exhaust!

Very nice review. Love from India. Subscribed ❤️❤️

The music on this video solid. Can you provide artist info?

currently on a s1000rr but i been wanting a 2014 r1 love the front and undertail exhausts i will be using it for commuting what ya think

Iron 883 vs Indian Scout 60? Tough decision.

Wait a minute.. your mate has had that bike for a couple of weeks? You really should have followed HD's engine run in period instructions regarding RPM's. Glad it wasn't my bike 😱

I just got 2020 883 and I can’t find the key ignition locate..

Love the video 😂

If you think a new one vibrates like crazy, ride a rigid mount sporty lol

im choosing my first bike should i get this ? is this worth it. ? any advice. ?

Good video dude

Love the imfo

I'm going for this bike

My first bike was a Harley Davidson 1200 sportser 25th anniversary at age 16 I've had a bike every since they are fun but they ain't a sports bike

Yo D what gloves you rockin in this? 🔥

looks so dope

Man that's a nice bi- WAIT THAT'S LEXINGTON

Amazing video brother! Now i want this bike 3v3n more! Its perfect for me

Leaning towards the iron as my first Harley ..but not sure , any other suggestions ?

Great video thanks
