Got the same bike last October, also black denim. My first bike at 51 years old. Just put a stage 1 on it and what a difference! Btw, when you start modding out your bike go to DK customs! They saved me a freaking fortune in my stage 1 and it actually works! Not just for show only with their mods! Seriously, I’m not affiliated with them or anything, I just really, really, appreciate a company that goes out of their way to supply the customer with real, usable, and doable information! I’ll never buy any performance mods from anyone but them ever again!

Don't let the vibrations scare ya, nor let the vibe at high rpm scare ya either.... learn to love em. Put in some earplugs so you don't hear the exhaust and let the machine talk to ya. After first service don't be afraid to find redline..... do it. Slip into neutral while slowing down, just before you stop. When stopped slightly blip the throttle while lifting into neutral, it will typically slip in when the rev drops.

I just picked up a 2019 883 myself. Got it off my cousin who really didn’t ride a lot. As of this post it is 5 years old but only 1500 miles on it. I’m really enjoying it. I’m not tall at all, 5’5” and I’m able to flat foot it and controls feel comfortable. At 16 in high school (40 yrs ago) I rode had a Honda v-30 magna v4, great bike, smooth engine compared to the 883 but the sound and history of Harley can’t be beat!

I have a 48 but I understand the issue with the mirrors down, the way to fix is very simple and it gives you a better use for the side/rear view mirrors. All you have to do is to loosen up the handle bar and push it forward until you can see better behind and to the sides and also to avoid hitting the gas tank .... And of course you are going have to rotate the clutch and brake lever to your needs. Cool bike bro, best regards.

Your fuel mileage is normal given your mileage on bike.I am hardly ever in fifth gear and my mileage is close to 50 on a 1200. Once it breaks in your mileage will improve and more possibly after the first service. To get to neutral easier, go down to first and then go up into neutral. All big twins do it this way. It helps a little. I love how they handle and feel on the road once your kidneys are gone and your lower spine is your new shock. The iron 883 really has the looks. My biggest regret was that I bought a super low instead of the iron to save some bucks on a 3 yr leftover. The iron 883 always looked cool.

Congratulations on your new bike, I have a 2019 iron 1200 gloss black. I like the flat black color better but the iron 1200 that year didn’t have a flat black option. Your review was very nice and it looks like you live in a beautiful area of Southern California, lots of palm trees and beautiful mountain views. Nice scenery and refreshing. I get about 44 miles per gallon, and my light goes on at 100 miles. I’ve never really pushed it but I would imagine I would probably get at least 144 miles to a tank,but never pushed it.

I used to struggle getting into neutral as well until i discovered a trick going into neutral from 2nd gear. I simply pull the clutch and slide my foot downward and to the left, causing the clutch peg to sorta bounce and automatically lands into neutral EVERY TIME lol. If youve ever done a kickflip on a skateboard its the exact same thing.

when you try to put it in neutral from 1st gear, make sure the gear pedal is 'locked'.. if it has play when you step on it, roll it forward about a foot and then you'll feel it 'lock' it's easy to put it in neutral from the 'locked' position, but almost impossible to put it in neutral when it's not.

I got the 2020 883. The 1200 is just not comfortable for me. I didn't like it at all. I'm 5'9" and the 883 is perfect. I love it. I put drag bars on mine and I don't have a problem with the low slung mirrors. I love how the denim black looks... when I've recently applied the cleaner. After that stuff wears off, it looks horrible. You can see all the flaws on my tank mostly. I got it with 260 miles on it and the previous owner spilled fuel all over the tank, I guess, and it looks bad. If I had a choice, I would have gotten a glossy black or the tan color. I have the Short Shots and it's loud. Wear ear plugs if you get them. I really want a 2019 Breakout though, lol. One day...

Hey man, have the exact same model. The fuel light comes on when you've got about 1/3 of a tank left. I do the same thing with the trip odometer. I know if I hit 100 miles I can still go a ways, but the light comes on just to remind you that you've got about a gallon of fuel left in the tank. (A little less for me now that I put a tank life on the bike)

I like my 883 I take a lot of flack for it a bit, it's not too bad on gas,got mine cheap had only 3000 miles on it. They make them quiet cus they got sued for loud pipes. They are light on the highway but that dont bother me much. The sportsters have always looked nice. When I was young I had a 250 Suzuki x 6 when my friends brother gave me the keys to his XLCH that's all I ever wanted after that, did a lot of hill climbing on both, and you will find you can hill climb on the 883. Love it when I climb up the devider on the highway. Try doing that on a glide and whipping through traffic and when cars are side by side I do the cal thing and go between them.

In the last 2 weeks I've bought an 06 Mustang GT that is pretty sick looking and it's super fast and it sounds mean sitting there camming like it does. I also just bought a basically brand new 2022 KTM duke 200 that i got for a really good lick and it only has 300 miles on it and not even broke in yet and the break in on it is 1500 miles.Regardless I'm gonna keep the KTM duke 200 but in about 6 months to a year I'm gonna get a Harley that's blacked out similar like this and that matches my black Mustang GT and that sounds like my mustang as well. Only problem I'm having is getting my stupid motorcycle permit so i can then get my license because I've been to the DMV twice in the last week to only leave both times and not able to even take the test because they've you sitting there for literally HOURS and HOURS because they're busy as hell and so slow that they hardly get people moving and I can't keep going up there for nothing and sitting there forever and I've to take off work each time just to go which really pisses me off. I'm trying to do it the right way but since i can't get in to even take the dumb test on computer I'm about to just ride it without the motorcycle endorsement and if i get pulled over then I'm just gonna tell them i tried and that's on them and that i only have certain windows i can do stuff with work and life because i actually have a life. I hate the DMV and always have but this is just ridiculous but I'm NOT gonna just sit here with a bike that i can't even ride because of that,NOT MY PROBLEM!

The stock pipes also strangle the performance. I got an V&H Feulpak and slip on exhaust. And I installed a K&N air intake w filter. Watch out, though, since the air intake requires the older style 'oval' air cover. So, after installing the air intake and loving it, I had to find (which is nearly impossible) an oem oval cover. I love the bike though. Mine is a chameleon green 2018. As far as mileage, you get about 35 m/g. My stage one upgrade got me about 2-4 more m/g, surprisingly. I got a small Puig windscreen just to block my chest. Have fun! Everyone upgrades within a year maybe two. But I'm 47 and enjoying the ride. It's less stressful to take out a smaller bike. I've had it for about 3 years and have no plans to upgrade. Neutral does kind of suck. I go max speed 65 if there's a lot of wind. I don't consider it a great highway bike. But it can do it.

In my humble opinion, no one should be in neutral at a stop. And it scares me that people are unaware of how to safely drive a motorcycle. If you don't know or care about that, what else do you ignore? Are there licensing requirements? Or is the course bullshit? Or is it just the arrogance of youth, thinking nothing can happen to me? Stay safe.

Nice video bro. I picked up a 21 883 also back in March. My next mod will be the rear shocks for sure. I have 1k miles on her and neutral was difficult to get. Now being its broken in its much easier. Sometimes I do have to walk it in order to get it in N. I managed to get my 883 right at 100mph. The second the speedometer touch 100mph I noticed she started a bit of a wobble! No bueno....so I just let off the throttle. It's nice to see she can hit 100mph. Here in Florida its not as nice of a scenery as in Cali. JELLY! How do you like your Alpinestars gloves? Im looking for a better pair. My Joe Rocket gloves seem to cut off circulation on my throttle hand. Also its a pain in the ass to get on and off. Thanks for the video bro....Two Wheels Down!

The Bonneville is a very balanced light bike love them and fast had the 650 and the 750 but didn't like the fact of the clutch sticking when it sat too long. Harley 883 is a bit heavier and not as balanced but you get use to it. Like the sound and the clutch never sticks ever, and I'm down too 180 lbs. Is not a race bike but get some iridium plugs it give you a bit more power.

I had a 20 Iron 883 for 10 months, put on some pretty decent slip ons from some company called DNA it rumbled, had to get some different baffles to quiet it down some lol. I ended up traded it in for a 21 Softail Standard, but it was a great bike, I bought it new and it had over 7200 miles when I traded it in for the Softail.

Not a fun of the iron 883. I much prefer the 48 with spoke wheels and lower to the ground look. I have a 2020 Indian Scout but adding a Harley is something I would love to do one day. The 48 would be my choice for an in town bike.

Since it's new and I need to break it in, I'm keeping the rpm around 3500-4000. But after the break in, I usually don't look at rpm and feel the engine when it needs to shift. You should practice the same to listen and feel out the engine 😬🤙
