Monday Evening Rush Hour Traffic - Harley Davidson Sportster Iron 883

New bike, new video!
Every Monday i have this horrible rush hour commute to work. Not so horrible now :P
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some info on why i sold the Bob and bought a Iron
No more Fat Bob..
Ive got myself a new bike and i love it!
A Harley Davidson Sportster Iron 883.. and yes.. As some of you might know. That's the bike i was riding back when i started this channel. Full circle i guess ;)
The FatBob was a amazing bike, but it needed some work. It got 20k on the dail and there was a list of small things to do. (new heatshields for the exhaust, parts needed new paint, new footpegs, etc..) Being a Harley owner that means the bill can run up quick. I bought the bike for a couple of reasons. The main one, is my gf riding on the back and it being comfortable on long rides with the two of us. She's getting her own license at the moment.
The fact that the bike is form 2009, the 20k, the little cosmatics that needed to be done and the fact that my girl is about to get her own bike, made me look for a new bike.
And that choice wasn't hard to make.. :D I still absolutely love the Iron 883 and ive Always had some regrets about selling my old Iron. The only thing i was a bit worried about is the huge engine/power diffence between the 1600cc Fat Bob and all is upgrades and a stock 883 would be to big. and to be honest it is. But The Iron is my all time favorite Harley aaaaaaand.......
Rather than look for a 48 of nightster i'll be converting the 900cc to the Screaming Eagle stage IV 1200cc in August. with that a list of other modifications. Witch will all be documented on this channel of course ;)
The bike is all stock at the moment except for the Vance&Hines exchaust. they are fine for now, but not really my taste. This meas this wil actually be the first "build" i will be doing. If all goes well there will be a totally diffrent bike at the end of august.!
Thnx for watching and stay safe out there!

Dude you ride pretty hard :D. I will get there eventually but that is so cool you chose the Iron again after you sold it. Can't wait to see the mods. What did you think of the new modified Iron and 48 they just released?

Gefeliciteerd met je nieuwe bike! En ben heel benieuwd hoe hij eruit gaat zien eind augustus! Veel fijne kilometers!! 😄

[@bartvy]

Anne Bikergirl thnx Anne! Deze week komen de eerste kleine dingen binnen. Kan stiekem niet wachten tot augustus. Maar goed, geduld is een schone zaak.. xD

Dat accentje verberg je voor niemand! ;)

[@MartinvanSon]

Thx man, goede video ! Nog steeds blij met de 883?

[@bartvy]

Ja absoluut!. Zojuist een mooie tocht gemaakt door Zwitserland. Ook met de 883 goed te doen, geen moment spijt en stiekem de meest comfortabele motor die ik in mijn bezit heb gehad. Zeker na het tunen en afstellen.

[@raoulraoul8334]

Hoe doet de 883 het op de snelweg??

[@bartvy]

Raoul raoul geen klachten! Zolang je 100/120km/h aanhoud rij je in 1 ruk naar Zwitserland. ;)

Dutch is so fucking weird, I'm an english speaker and I swear this says "How does it do on the highway". It's like, creepy.

@@yummyzerg my dear blackbeard. Dutch and english are both saksen languages, thus its easy to see similarities.
