Harley-Davidson Iron 883 [2018-2019] Summary

The Iron 883 used to be the stepping stone to that all-hallowed brand from Milwaukee, but with a younger, more affordable brand in the Street series taking on that role, the Iron 883 now assumes the role of the middleweight cruiser and the entry to the Dark Custom family.

The Iron 883 sticks to the Sportster philosophy and gets an unadulterated and clutter-free design. The peanut-shaped tank gets a clean design with the manufacturer's name in bold lettering. With a blacked-out exhaust, frame and wheels, the use of chrome has been kept to a bare minimum. The front-biased riding stance also complements the Iron 883’s sporty character. It gets an LCD display in the instrument cluster which shows the gear position, revs and other details. A switch facilitates scrolling through the menu on the display.

As the name suggests, the Iron 883 is powered by an 883cc V-twin engine, which produces 50bhp and 69Nm of torque. A part of the Evolution family of engines, this air-cooled engine is mated to a five-speed gearbox that transmits the power to the rear wheel through a belt drive. Built around a tubular steel frame, the Iron 883 rides on conventional telescopic front forks and dual springs at the rear.

The Iron 883 is available in three vivid paint schemes - olive gold, charcoal denim and black denim. It competes with other middleweight motorcycles like the Triumph Street Twin, Suzuki Intruder M800 and the Hyosung ST7. The iron 883 is priced at Rs 8,39,000 (ex-showroom,Delhi)

Harley-Davidson Iron 883 [2018-2019] Review

  • Good Things

    • Great low-end torque
    • Quality of parts is top-notch
    • Comfortable riding position
  • Could be Better

    • Expensive to maintain
    • Fuel-efficiency is not great
    • Could get better front brake

BikeWale's Take

The Iron 883 has the complete appeal of an American-cruiser. It's 883cc, V-twin engine has great low-end torque and a thumping exhaust note that further adds to the motorcycle's appeal. Nevertheless, it could do with better illumination and front brake feel.

      The American Beast

      4 years ago


      Srihari Ananthapadmanabhan B V

      Buying the Harley-Davidson Iron 883 is one among my best ever investments. The showroom people are very polite and helpful. I get the bike picked up and dropped for regular service. The bike costed me around 9.5L and an additional accessories of 2L.
      Obviously the beast has no question about performance. The bike goes to a maximum speed of 210kmph. On with the ride the rhythm of the silencer makes us feel the speciality of the american motor company. Even at 200kmph the stability of the bike remaind the same.
      Buying a Harley means you must be ready to spend. The services are not cheap. It costs me around 13K bugs for service and 9k per year for RSA and an additional 10K for insurance. That is on a whole 31K a year minimum.
      The myth people think that harley is for huge muscular people is completely false. You must have the bike and ride it for a week or two to understand the performance rather than a single test drive. I purchased the bike in just a single visit. The people in the showroom offered me doorstep service for delivery thereafter.
      On a whole hats of the Harley Davidson Motor Company on making this beast.
