BLOCKHEAD new to your channel awesome job the sportster is the bike I’m looking at getting one with get license
ncvhACE MARTINEZ cp f
Your channel is amazing Blockhead! I want to get the iron 883 as my first bike also, I can't decide on if I should get something 2016-2021. Should I go closer to 2021? Since it is my first bike should I go down a few years like a 2017 iron 883? Thanks 😊
I got my first time bike 1.14.2018 and it’s a 883 Iron industrial gray. I just turned 65 in July took the HD rider school. I put 1400 miles on it around town I love it. I wanted a bike just to go out to ride part of the day. No nighttime or rush hour, rain and expressway I have my caddy for that. I put Vance and Hines side three inch mufflers on a naked air filter and fuel pack 3, HD side bag, Wille G clutch cover and gas cap and a Dart fly screen oh yes Avon grips too. That baby gets a lot of head turns. You’re never to old to learn new things.
Too old to rock'n'roll, too young to die))))
Spot on, well done to you!! Just passed my test this year too and did same!! Amazing bike, amazing experience, I’ve added my own thoughts at Scottish Iron...
Awesome! All the best to you!!!! ♱ 🏍 🇺🇸
Good on ya, Mate, I'm seriously thinking to do the same thing and I'm 48 haven't ridden a motorcycle since I been 25...
It's expensive in my country
Came for a bike review. Left with a self esteem boosting pep talk 😂🙏🏽 getting my first bike this month and it's this 💯
Have you been enjoying it.
@@jahimuddin2306 I ended up with getting the 1200 and yeah I love it!
@@rRaaaNn good choice, nimble, still got the medium tank instead of the 48 peanut one, a bit more low end torque and high end power, same customization options. I own a 2013 883, I absolutely love it and am always able to at least keep up with big twins, but I came to slightly regret not going for the 1200.
Anyways, congrats on your first bike/harley!! Have fun, and ride safe!! It's full of a**holes on the streets..
@@rRaaaNn great choice I always try to recommend people the 1200 over the 883
I've been riding a Road King for years and picked up a used Sportster earlier this year. I love my 08' 1200 C Sporty and probably spend at least as much time on it as the Road King. I've been riding for enough years that I can praise the virtues of the Sporty without taking any crap from anyone. Anyone who disses on the Sporty has never thrown a leg over. The Sporty is a great bike.
Your comment about the 883 being a girl's bike, brought back memories of my first bike 50+ years ago. It was a mini-bike with a racing go-cart engine. The older bikers would make huge fun of me, till I out ran them. Because of this, everyone wanted to ride it. In exchange, I got to ride a ton of bikes I could of only dreamed of and never afford at that time in my life. They found other things to make fun of, but not the bike :))
Another thing that's great about the 883 is since it's so entry level lots of dudes buy it and only use it for maybe 1k miles and resell for thousands less than retail
Unless you find a dealership with the Freedom program. They give you ticket price back on your trade.
In Canada the going rate for an 883 with 1-2000 miles is MSRP :( - even private sale.
@@Gazeroni Here in Pennsylvania, U.S, it's just about the same. I don't get it. Some people are even asking up to $2,500 above MSRP!
It can be ridiculous..
Its "entry level" to people who dont know about bikes. Ill take my Sporty over a bagger any day. 3k takes me to 130 hp and still pay about 12k less than a larger bike.
@@QuasarPolaris
I saw people in Germany demanding similar prices or like ten year old model for 75%. Who will buy that? I don't even try to barter and I know Harley bikes do not change much in comparison with other brands over ten years.
There are imports from the USA sold at a hefty price and wirhout the info up front whether the necessary changes to make it street legal in Germany are included.
I rode a Dyna. I cannot take the vibrations to long. I really wanted to make the switch. But it did not work. Harley engines just dont fit me.
Love that bike, my first one in-fact, got it just 34 days ago. As someone who had never ridden a motorcycle in their life until then, other then bicycles as a teen, this is an amazing starter bike that is a lot of fun to ride. People go out of their way to mention how nice it is even.
If that’s a girls bike than I must be a girl because I love the sportsters
As I mentioned in another thread, people might say that about the modern ones. I don't know if I ever saw a girl who could kick start a cold XLCH with the magneto ignition.
Anyone that says sportsters are girl bikes never even owned a HD.
Even my mechanic said that...
Such a dickhead and unprofessional...
People obsessed with vehicles "representing" them. They need something big and powerful. I remember one of my first cars was a Miata and random dudes would be like "cute car". The Sporter looks good to me, it's reliable and is fast enough for fun. Big Nikes look so ugly to me idk.
Hr Larsen just what I was thinking , they are probably too broke to get one 😎
I just bought my first Harley. 2020 Iron 883 🖤
Congrats dude. Im working my way up to get a Harley or an Indian
I have a 2014 Iron and I still love it 4 years later. As for the mirrors, Harley sells an aftermarket set that are identical except the stems are an inch longer and taller, makes a huge difference seeing around you.
Sweet! Need to look into that. All i see is my shoulders
ive been looking at sportbikes, dirt bikes, adventure bikes and now the sportster, you have me sold on this bike, and i dont even have my bike yet. Thanks brother!
My Iron 883 will always be part of my stable. Even after I get a "bigger bike." Such a fun bike and who cares what others think!
Great Egret I wish I kept mine ... traded mine in on a fatbob for more two up riding and hated it / ended up trading that on a Yamaha MT-10 and now want to add another sporty to the garage :(
Cant stress what you said enough. The only person you should be trying to impress, is yourself. Find what does that for you and own it, peoples opinions won’t matter when you look back on life and ask if you actually lived it.
You’re so inspiring, thank you! Trying to get my first ever bike by the end of this year. And thanks to you I have the confidence, from what I learned so far from your videos, to get my dream Harley!
Just got a 2019 Iron 883 today as my first bike .......... worth it.
Diego Sanchez
Me too! 7/10/19!
Me too, bought one today (6Aug19) in black denim! Guess I'm a girl!!
still loving it?
Just got a 883 Iron as my first bike, bought it because it felt really comfortable to me. Mid controls made it feel just like my dirt bike and I loved that. Great channel btw.
Great review. Looking at my buying my first Harley this year, this will be that bike now. Keep up the good work.
Been looking at this for my first street bike. Price is right, found some low mileage used rides and am gonna test ride in a couple weeks. Love this channel, getting lots of great info, thanks for doing what you do!
Great Video! I like your positive, upbeat attitude. You are a true Motorcycle lover! I respect anyone's Ride, just be safe and enjoy!!!!
Had to stop the video just so i could say..Nice 1 m8! 👍. You sound like a really decent top bloke and the info you provided was really helpfull. I am sold on the 883. It looks amazing! This is gonna be my 1st bike for sure. I start my biking journey at 45y old next weekend with sitting my CBT here in Scotland and i reckon with commitments it will prob take me around 8 weeks or so of lessons before i manage to sit and pass my test. After my close friend passed away suddenly last month at only 46 years of age it has been hard to think about anything positive. However it just highlights that life is too short and that it is for living, i have re-evaluated lots of things these past few weeks. I have been putting this off for too long!. I am looking forward to learning and riding and when i buy my iron 883 in a few mths time this year i am going to get my friends name engraved on it. His name was Scott. All the best buddy. I have subscribed.
Had been thinking about getting a bike for years and after watching some of your videos I pulled the trigger and bought a 2017 883 all black with denim grey tank. Thanks for all the info you give out!
How is it now ???
Just bought an iron 1200 and I’m really happy with it and your channel really helped me make the decision to get it. Hope you come to dallas sometime
I bought a new 2018 in feb. I have about 5000 miles on it. I haven’t done any mods or accessories, bone stock. I love this bike, not great on interstate , but can be done. I’m in such a dilemma too take advantage of their trade in offer. This bike is soooo much fun and reliable. I highly recommend it!
Very good and thorough review....
It is my opinion that the Iron 883 in black mat paint looks 100% badass.
Like a weapon.
A well worn competition AR-15.
All business.
It looks like bikes are suppose to look.
Not the chrome encrusted driveway art.
A MOTORCYCLE!!.
Thanks for a great review.
After watching this video and a few others I bought mine a month ago. Got it out for the first time this weekend. 170 miles I put on it. Love the fact it’s not to powerful and is easy to ride. Has enough of what I need.
Nice to see you back on the bike that started it all for you! I CANT WAIT to be able to grab one of these, but life happens and bills come first
Thanks for the video, Block!
I just purchased a 2019 Iron 883 today,but not picking it up
until next week and this gives me an idea of what to expect.
How is that bike holding up?
Blockhead....love all your vids and have appreciated the other vids on how to shift/steer/control that you originally did fro Ms. Blockhead!!!
I bought a 2020 Barracuda Silver Denim bike from my local dealer and so excited to get on it and go.
Your review of the 2019 and fact it was your first bike really helped me on my purchase. Thank you and ride safely!!!!
Iv'e had 2 883's and loved em both. Dependable and versatile. One of them was dressed out for escorting Funerals and never failed to start even in 5 degree Ohio winters! Also great to strap a sleeping bag, tent and change of clothes for a few days road trip!
This is a very well done, informative video. Thanks for the info. Now I have to check out your channel, just to learn more. But this makes me want a Sportster. I won't be touring so this might be a great fit for me. It occurs to me that if the Sportster sucked, it would have disappeared a long time ago.
One of the best looking Sporty's the company has ever built, no doubt.
I’ve owned both the iron 883 sand camo, and the forty eight, I must say that the extra displacement of the 1200 makes it perfect for a bar hopper, as well as being able to move along nicely on the freeway when necessary. The 883 was great, and a ton of fun, but as they say, there is no replacement for displacement. Currently riding a dr650 which is not so much of an upgrade, rather it is a shift in my desired riding wants and needs. If you like cruising around town ( ya at speed limit, sure ) and do occasional to medium freeway use, the sportys are great starter bikes, and have tons of mods that can make it look fantastic.
This is a very enjoyable review to listen to and watch. I am actually thinking about down grading my Harley Low-Rider S to a new Iron 883. I had one of the early evolution 883 Sportsters back in 1990 and loved it. I like the lower maintenance costs, the fact that an oil change is all you need to also take care of the primary and transmission, and I am glad to see the bike is so reliable. It almost sounds like the Sportster 883 Iron (unmodified) is more reliable than the M 8.
Enjoyed the vid Blockhead, loving the sportsters
the iron is a perfect oldschool bike. if you want the feel of back in the days dont overthink and grab it! great for beginners too. after owning an iron you def. know where your journey goes!
I got a 18 iron love it nice to see you on one again you helped me make my decision on buying it it cost less than a cable bill a month and for where I ride in like to do it works out just great I also got the trade up deal so I don't know I might want something bigger down the road. The best thing though wood be to have the Iron 883 and a slim still would be cheaper than a new car. Thanks for all your good advice.
Great video Blockhead! Unfortunately it doesn't help Orlando Harley cuz I'm from Texas but dude you just sold me on an Iron 883 for my first motorcycle!
Congratulations! Welcome to the Harley-Davidson family 👏👏
Awesome to hear man, hope you enjoy the bike! I'm sure you will 🤘
Check out Dream Machines of Texas, its where I got my NightTrain and I bought it solely from photos and it was everything they said it was and then some. Im from Canada. Ride safe.
Where in Texas are you?
@@draganm7823,
You got in Round Rock or Pflugerville? I can't remember which one that Dream Machines is actually in. I've actually stopped in there.
About to get my first bike in about a month. This will be it! I’ve done alot of research. Not only do i love the aesthetics of this bike, but it IS a great platform to start and build with.
Just subscribed man! Lovin your channel and that intro was Badass😎👌
Hey there are shots from inside OHD is that a drone I know outside shots are awesome too overall your blogs are extremely professional and simple at the same time luv em all
Back to the good old days! I miss all those install tutorial vids. Definitely one of the easiest models to wrench on. For that reason, I'm really looking forward to the Harley giveaway series. Excited for more mod vids! Good shit as always, Blockhead.
My first Harley was a 1980 XLH Sportster. At least it had separate Speedometer and Tach. I sold it after I bought my current Harley 1983 FXWG.
I never knew about the EVO being called a block head! Thanks for the mini history lesson!
I have never owned a motorcycle...and this iron 883 has really caught my attention. I am looking to buy one around summer time, so thank you very much for all the details you gave in your video. Only issue that I am a little worried about is my height. I am over six feet tall and I heard you mention that it might be a little cramped. I have yet to sit on the iron 883, however that will be one of the things I do once I get back from my deployment. It seems like a great starter bike, and being able to add so many different accessories to it is a huge plus! Thanks again for the video sir!
I have a 2017 iron. I love it. Black denim.....get a lot of great comments on it.
Hey blockhead I’m not going to lie, I literally learned how to ride just from watching your videos 😂 I bought my 883 Monday and picked it up on Tuesday. Love the bike love the channel I was shocked just from what I learned from you so I’d like to say thank you
Liking the industrial grey. Own an Iron 1200 at moment. Evo engine is fantastic. Running stock engine. Perfect. Thanks for the review
Nice video Blockhead.. I just got my iron 883 as my first motorcycle and love it.. You gained another subscriber....
Proud owner of hd iron 883 2012 n little bit bcoz of weather here in India just ridden 10k kms anyhow just love it.
I loved ur led turn signals with drls but here in India after market stuff is not available n with shipping charges from US anything can turns out to be like 40% more of the actual value. Anyway just in love with the ending track of all ur videos.
I want one so bad it's the perfect bike for me to start learning I love the price it only went up a couple hundred bucks
If someone started a conversation with this what this video started, I'm buying that right then and there. Now, this is what I call a review. Thank you
Really enjoyed the 2019 883 video. Just bought it as my entry bike. Been groovy for a non-riding person. Thank you for the walk through.
Purfefun2
Just got mine too on 7/10/19, pick it up next week!
Great video on the 883 ,just bought my 2015 ,and i love it and dont give shit what anybody would say about it ,waiting for spring to put my new exhaust on ,cant wait to get out to cold right now, thanks again for the great video
Great job on this video!
Just bought a 09 iron 883 and I love it
I own a 2012 Nightster and I love that damn bike. I'm currently riding my step dads 03 Heritage while my nightster is in the shop. Yeah it's more comfortable and the bags and windshield are definitely nice to have. But it's just not my sportster. I miss that quickness and being so nimble
New intro and music is great.
Great video man, makes me want to get one myself
Very informative.. thanks!
I'm 5'4, would it be a good fit for me?
The wife has 14 iron. I put on vh short shots, 14" apes, hi flow air filter, fp3 tuner and a few other things. It's an absolute blast to ride. I highly recommend it. And if you want more motor I recommend the s&s 1200 conversion. It will eat a factory 1200 alive.
I love this bike. I owned it for a month and the previous owner (a close friend) wanted to buy it back with the same price. He couldn't live without it. The only thing I didn't like about it is that I looked funny on it :D
I always love your videos block head.
I had one as well, but they shake alot at highway speeds. Fun bike to roll around town with though.
The front suspension forks are nice man!! Keep it up 👌😎
Bought an Iron 883, same colour, in part because of your video. I love it. Thanks!
I just bought a 2016 Iron 883 but a day after I bought it, I unfortunately broke my knee due to a longboarding accident. Once I'm all healed up though I can't wait to ride this thing!
Have been thinking about getting an Indian Scout Bobber 20. After watching this video now I think I'll be happier with an Iron 883. Love the Harley exhaust sound and the 883 seems powerful enough to suit my needs. Haven't been on a bike since the mid 80's, rode a Honda 750.
I thought that dealership looked familiar, and as soon as you did the aerial shot the construction on I-4 made it unmistakable. Great video man.
When you ride a 48 Special, hold on loosely, but don't let it go...
Mid controls make me feel like I have less control, because they're right in the way of putting my feet down.
Harley-Davidson's are tested for handling the engine heat, in Arizona.
I've seen a big, heavy club member looking dude riding a Sporty.
I hear a lot of people complaining it’s difficult to find neutral, not here in this comment section but in general. I just have a piece of advice that if you kinda “push” the clutch peg *in* towards the engine and lift up slowly, that has never failed me.
The reason they have hard time finding neutral is they put 20w-50 in the primary, if they change to gear oil it will fix the problem immediately, after riding for awhile the clunk and moving forward when going into first will also go away......read the owners manual
The blockhead nickname was coined because the heads prior to the 1980's were cast iron , the Evo motor was the first time HD used a block of aluminum machined to make the heads of the new improved motor !!! Thus the "blockhead " motor was created !!! The aluminum also has better heat transference properties and stronger than cast iron !!!
I test drove an Iron 883, I'm 6'4" 285 lbs, it felt cramped for me but it was fun to ride. One of my friends who came with me said I was the only person he's ever known that made a Sportster look like a Grom! 😎
Oh man, you should see Big Tom, one of the techs at my dealership. The guy makes most softails look like a Grom.
I have a 2016 Iron 883 and LOVE IT! Mine is all flat black. Fun little bike and I am very short so I can touch the ground easily on her.
I tried a 2016 883. Harley can keep it. Already owned a 15 Street 750. Fast forward 2018. I have a 2018 1200 Custom. And love it.
front wheel lookin good...well the whole thing is looking good
I have the lron1200 and it’s awesome. Great handling and fuel economy. So happy with it.
Hi Blockhead, After watching your video I decided to go for it. I went to the dealership sat on the bike it felt great as I'm 5'6'. I placed an order for a black denim Iron 883 which will be ready in two weeks. I am 62 years of age I live in the UK and always wanted a Harley. Great video, thanks for sharing.
I just wish these had a thick front fork and tyre, similar to the 48.
Nice review. Very helpful. Is it good/comfortable for two-up?
The painting scheme is better now - comparing to 2018 model. Varnished paint is way more scratch-resistant(as opposed to matte finish in 2018). I also like the new logo better - but it is a matter of personal preference. But there's one important thing: did Harley drop keyless ignition in favour of traditional keyed ignition ?
Great vlog, great bike. Thanks !
Love my 883, classic, can't get rid of her, rough ride on long distant but that's riding like the old days , wouldn't have another way , old school. biking.
I bought mine at Orlando Harley-Davidson I-4...
I LOVE IT!
Just turned 65 this past May and decided to trade my Freewheeler trike in for a new 1200 Iron. Best decision I've made. Started on a Sportster in 1967 and guess I will end on one. Great bikes!!!
I've got a 2013 883 and I love it to bits.
Hey Blockhead, I bet you can get some sponsorship from some lenders, and bike Insurance companies.
I like how you describe the bikes! I like you include the prices, it makes me want to go buy a new one! I've never had a Harley, I've only had naked bikes mostly 1,000cc and 1,200cc Honda, Suzuki, and Ducati.
Keep riding on! :-)
883 is an awesome bike! Love mine 2016!
Great Bike I Like It. I'm thinking about getting one. I'm a beginner. Later I Will get The FatBoy Softail. I've Seen Alot of Dudes Ride The Iron 883. 👍 Thanks Man.😎
I have a 2010 Iron 883 and I've put many happy miles on it. I'm intrigued by the new hand controls. The odometer and clock function button was always the button behind the speedo and it's hard to get at with a fairing installed. Is the new handlebar control something that can be easily adapted to an older bike? Or is it part of the wiring harness upgrade and probably too much of a hassle?
I get that crap a lot I bought the 2014 Iron XL883N used from Harley Davidson of Slidell La in August 0f 2018 my first Harley I love my Iron
Can you test ride a 1200 custom? Perferably with that new silver flux color but i understand if that isn't an option haha
Hi Sir, I've no experience riding a Harley. Grateful you could recommend one for a start. Thanks.
Cool story about the channels name origin. Keep up the awesome videos!
Blockhead, thanks for the review....I just went and looked at an Iron 883 this past weekend and am will hopefully soon ...very soon...be out and about riding again....at the age of 50...oh yeah...
I just bought a 2020 about 2 months ago and love it. I did have to change the seat out as well as the shocks to make it 2 up but it's a great bike! I went with the sundowner seat and passenger pillion.
Definitely will be getting the 883!!!
883 was my first bike and I still wish I had it. They are great bikes!
I have always loved the 883 that will be my first bike but one thing i eish they could add its not really needed but nice yo have is a fuel gauge like the one you had on the Dyna
Going to the HD motorcycle course. The 883 is my eye-candy, this will be my first time riding, so Im hoping I do well on the course and the lifestyle is for me. Will accept any advice but I know all I have to do is get on and ride to see for myself. Oh and you sir have been subcribed! Awesome vid.
JUST BOUGHT AN 883 IRON LAST NIGHT!!! I’m so excited to ride it, let’s ride Blockhead! I’m in west Orlando!
Blockhead... I currently own a 2015 XL883N (since late January) and would to ask of your opinion in upgrading the fuel tank (from 3.3 to 4.5) and if would it be financially better to either upgrade bikes or converting from 883cc to a 1200cc? ✌🏾
I looked at that custom its $55,000 but very nice
