The 2013 Harley-Davidson Iron 883 is one of the more interesting modern motorcycles from a customisation-platform perspective.The Iron 883 model is the anti-chrome motorcycle—decked in black from front to back with a defiant attitude that embraces the pure essence of riding.

The Iron 883 model is the anti-chrome motorcycle decked in black from front to back with a defiant attitude that embraces the pure essence of riding. Black powder-coated 883cc engine with black rocker covers. Black chopped fenders that show off a lot of rubber. Black front forks with gators add an old-school look. Black oil tank cover, belt guard and drag bars. And black cast aluminum wheels that shoot Iron 883 motorcycle into the modern rebel culture and keeps the rebellious fire burning with plenty of freedom for customization.

The combination of a lowered front and rear suspension together with a low, narrow solo seat—just 25.7 inches high—provides comfort and confidence for riders of all sizes and experience. A responsive ride for whipping through town or busting out onto the interstate.

The Iron 883 is powered by an 883 cc motor which churns out 75 Nm of torque. This is enough to propel the bike from 0 to 100 in just 6.4 seconds
The bike has a top end of 160 Kmph which is a lot for a bike designed to cruise. But, like any naked bike it’s tough to go beyond speeds above 140 Kmph for too long due to the wind blast.It can easily beat the starting range of urban sportsbikes like the Ninja 250, CBR 250 and more,by a mile.

The Harley Davidson Iron 883, overall, is a well finished motorcycle. The matt black coat right from its peanut shaped 12.5 litre fuel tank to the rear fender is consistent and it’s hard to find any rough edges on the bike. The integrated stop-turn-tail lights while eliminating the need of an extra stop light, adds a minimal but classy touch to the 883. The difficult to recognize oil cap located on the right side panel reduces the effort to replace the engine oil. The press and rotate mechanism might make the motorcycle look vulnerable to mischief, but the method itself would be a suspense to many.
