My first Harley was a 883 sporty.
She got much better with time.
Pulled sleeves, accel pump straight pipes... I'll never forget her.
Neither will the Denver police.

It's a laughable thing when a person says someone is "less of a man" because of the bike they ride. That already shows how less of an individual the complainer is. Stay in your lane, and everything will be golden. Live your life, focus on your life, and no one else's.

I’ve owned an 883 for 15 years! It’s reliable and cool. Yes it’s small. The older I get the more I appreciate a smaller bike. In my humble opinion the 883 is the best looking HD.

I've owned a couple of Sportsters. Here's the thing, Sportster owners tend to think of themselves as Sportster owners, not necessarily Harley owners. You won't find too many Sportster owners with Harley Davidson tats, Jackets, Belt Buckles, etc. Sportster owners tend to like the bike because of the amazing amount of aftermarket parts and mods you can do to them, at least in my opinion.

Ride what you like. Don’t worry about what others think. If you choose not to ride a sportster bc you think others will make fun, you have some security issues.

There's something wrong with you if you think that riding a smaller cc bike makes you "less of a man". The 883 is a perfectly decent bike for urban environments, especially in Europe (and rest of the world) where we can lane split and with a few bits and bobs you can also do some decent touring on it.
A bigger bike doesn't make you more of a rider. Riding when others don't. like that teenage kid that rides his scooter to school come sun, snow or rain, is more of a rider than some riders who put their bikes on the garage at the first sign of rain.

Imagine caring this much about what other dudes ride. It doesn't get anymore sissy than that.

I love my 883 Sportster. Years ago, after riding for over 50 years, I went to a trike because my knees got so bad I just couldn't safely ride my big 2-wheeler any more. Recently, I found my Sporty at a garage sale where she'd been sitting under a tarp beside their barn for the last 8 years or so; and I fell in love with her. She needed me.... and I needed her. A few months later and after a lot of work (and $$), now she looks and rides like new. She's light enough that I can ride her even with my really bad knees. She's an absolute blast to ride! Nimble, powerful, sure-footed; you couldn't ask for a better riding bike. OK, I'm 6'3" tall, and weigh 270, and I do kind of "dwarf" the Sporty. And, yes, my buddies sometimes poke fun at me for RIDING such a small bike. Who cares? She's very comfortable for me with the forward controls I added, and the key word is that I'm "RIDING". At least I can still RIDE. I have my trike for when I want to take longer rides or take along my wife. But for running around locally, you can count on seeing me on my little fire-red Sportster. Trikes are just fine; but there's nothing like really being on two wheels. Sportsters are great

I've got a bit of preaching for you. No bike is a bad bike. As long as your riding, that's all what matters.

Most the reasons people hate Sportsters are the same reasons I love them. They're a simple rough no frills bike that feel exactly how I think a bike should. I don't need electronic aids, huge fairings, heated seats, radios, cup holders or any of that unnecessary stuff found on alot of the bikes being put out by manufactures these days. The Evo has proven to be a reliable platform and is probably one of, if not THE simplest motorcycle engine to work on these days. It's also probably has more aftermarket support than 99% of motorcycles on the road and can be made to almost anything you want it to be.

Of course everyone has they're own prefrences when it comes to bikes and that's what makes this life so great. If I had to describe the Sportster in one word I'd say it's 'RAW' & that's exactly what I think a motorcycle should be. It will take you as far as you can go. Your opinion may vary.

I wonder how many sticky notes are just laying in the woods outside that dealership

The Sporster is a girls bike, if you're like me - sit on a Sporster and I promise you: YOU'LL ATTRACT ALL THE GIRLS, IT'S A "GIRL'S" BIKE. Can't wait to whip out the HD this summer, loving my college years!

I found myself at the harley dealer one saturday and was looking hard at the 1200 sportys but because I'm 6'4" the bike just is too small in the frame. I ended up riding a trade in 07 dyna street bob for a good price. Loved the bike, lost it to the repo man as I was dianosed with lung cancer(stage 3) and had to quit my job to enter chemo and radiation treatments. Just couldn't afford the note on disability.. Well, I beat the cancer and fully plan on another harley when I recover enough to get back to making enough money to afford toys again. It really doesn't matter what kind of bike. Guy adked me what kind I was thinking of getting and I told him the kind thats got two wheels and handlebars,

My 1200 sportster custom was my first motorcycle ever. Reliable plenty of power, and a good looking bike. If you’re looking at a sportster get one you won’t regret it.

It’s been the same engine for damn near 30 years; they’re bulletproof. Fun. Inexpensive. Buy the 1200 though.

I am 6'2" and 250 pounds. My 1997 1200xl sportster is comfortable and fast. It can outrun most other bikes. Don't diss the sportster, bro.

The lights were flashing in the beginning to remind your that motorcycles do in fact have turn signals that you could try to use on occasion.

There's no such thing as an 883 Nightster. That's an 883 Iron!
