It can be a bit cramped in stock trim. You'd likely want a taller seat that puts you up and back. If you can, go sit on one at a Harley dealer, so you get a better idea of the ergonomics. -DrewZilla

Even with a taller seat, the Sportster might still feel small for someone your height. If you really want a Harley, try sitting on a Dyna. If you're open to other brands, try a Kawasaki Vulcan S. If a Dyna is too expensive or feels too heavy, then I'd stick with a Sportster with a taller seat and forward controls. -DrewZilla

The Sportster is a magnificent bike that can be customized to anything you want; that's the beauty of it. Buy a Sportster if you're a motorhead and love customizing the bike to your own flavor. Get some AF fuel manager, pipes and taller Progressive shocks (minimum 3 inch travel) and you wake up this mini beast. Trust me.

Then, I had the foot pegs and grips replaced with Kyankin (spelled?) pieces. Also, I had the foot mid-controls replaced with forward-controls. Everything else is still original, even the exhaust system. However, at 60 years old, it is plenty fast and loud, for this old man.

That looks a lot more like road dirt/muck than motor oil, especially since the same gunk is on the forks. I don't think a brand new 2016 bike is supposed to spew oil.. Even if it is a Harley and "just one of those things you have to live with". Only reason a new Sportster may leak oil is if the level is too high and you're misting out the breathers and then leaking out the airbox. My Iron883 doesn't leak one bit of oil. Besides that, great review! I love my Iron!!

At 5:19. "You can see that my exhaust pipe and motor mount are covered in motor oil. Unfortunately Harley's aren't known for being the most oil tight bikes around, and that's the case with this new bike as well." WTF?!! This is a NEW motorcycle in the 21st Century. You want me to pay a premium price for a motorcycle that leaks oil and just shrug my shoulders? Uh no. Why would I do that? For freedom? The feeling of the open road? The feeling of a rumbling V-Twin exciting pleasure parts you haven't felt recently? I ain't buying that Kool-Aid. Leaking oil = crap quality. I'm not a stupid modern consumer buying crap quality just because it has a good marketing package. Morons.

The top truck on the Tri Glide has spoiled me and I no longer want saddle bags. Besides, saddlebags makes it hard to clean the rear wheel. Ride safe and enjoy every journey.

Had an issue with the starter, had to have the low fuel sensor replaced quite a few times, and the paint on the tank came off. Otherwise it was a really good bike. Now, I think I'd take the Scout over the Iron. Got to demo the Scout 60, and it was one of the best bikes I've driven. I love the style, and think I could do some really cool stuff to it.

The only modernization Harley has made with this bike is with the price tag.

Although I'm not a fan of having to add parts to make a bike legitimately better, I can certainly appreciate Lemmy for his enthusiastic and fun reviews. Perhaps Victor could've helped you find the parts, and Doc Mitchell to fix you up, since you were in Goodsprings after all...

Just what a new rider would want, Oil puking out of the motor and eventually on the bike tire 😂😂😂

I saw this video right before buying my 883 and am still riding the bike today albeit a "tad" modified (hardtail 😅). Still the best sportster review out there.

We already have a written review of the new Roadster, so we may or may not make a video review of it. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/common-tread/harley-davidson-roadster-first-ride-motorcycle-review

When is the follow up video coming out? Been waiting for 3 weeks for you guys to slap some new forks or big bore kit on this thing. I wanna see what can be done with this platform.
