Wow, what's happening? Is this really true. I've always thought my dream of owning a Harley will always remain one, but this is something really nice and this will surely make my dream come true one day. Cant wait for that day

not fair on the manufacturers part to keep part of the duty benefit to themselves and not pass it on completely.

previously 883 for 6.9 , 30% less = 4.9
883 R , equivalent of 883 iron , 7.5 , 30% less = 5.25

And this is when they are keep a part for themselves to cover for labour and factory set up costs.

and yes I agree , its not good that they are keeping majority of the benefits for themselves.Ideally it shud have been 4.5 and 5.0 ex showroom.

but this is a good step.. .interesting...

btw - is that rider in the review overweight, or the bike has an extremely low ground clearance?

**alderine rush** · 12-15-2010, 10:04 PM

Superlow looks ugly..

iron 883 is hot..

**alderine rush** · 12-15-2010, 10:06 PM

In the picture the exhaust pipe of superlow is nearly touching the road while the lean angle is not that much..

Wasn't the super low the same bike which was shown as Dummy bike in Orange reddish colour at the HD survey in that hotel near Qutab Institutional area ?

Any chance of an inline 4 fully faired bike,with racing ergonomics ?

In low volume games where customers have high expectations you HAVE to let the manufacturer make some money and pump it back into the system in the way of service infrastructure, better showrooms, events for customers and things like that.

You can't hold it against them...this isn't greed, this is a necessity for them to give you the experience you would expect of Harley.

I think the bikes are great VFM if you want more than just speed. Add a pair of open pipes to the Iron 883 and...

Wait...no point writing about it. Just watch this:

Buy her a bus pass...

Seriously...Men need to stand up for that thing that stands up whenever you're in the mood. We're becoming more pathetic with every passing minute and it sickens me...
