• Q. I have heard that it requires a lot of maintenance and not sure why Iron 883 would be found on every website who are selling used motorcycles.

    @ Brave | Yes maintenance cost is on the higher side as it is a HD. I have recently bought it( I too bought it second handπŸ˜†) and I don't have an Idea of reliability but I bought it when it was 48000 km (approx) so I don't think that it is an unreliable bike..πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ

    They are extremely reliable bikes. My 2015 iron has 110,000 miles on it. It's my primary mode of transportation and has been for several years. A few things are starting to wear out. I just replaced the clutch and drive belt, but with that many miles I can't complain. My iron is the most durable piece of equipment I have ever owned and I will definitely be buying another Harley, but not until both wheels fall off of this one. P.s. every one of those 110k miles was riding it as fast as it would go..... most dependable bike ever

    But obvious its a Harley, maintaining is no issue but yes high cost of service. Used 883 motorcycles are there for a reason the oil tank is too small, i personally feel there is a lot of vibration n heat but it could be that the owner is upgrading.
