Motorcycle review motorcycle channel street glide road glide Dyna low rider 2021 Harley reviews 2020 low rider s motorcycle group ride Harley Davidson Harley news Harley motorcycles Harley sportsters Harley softail
Just made a 1500 mi round trip on 883 super low with 4 big baggers, kept up and fueled up with them, never fell behind, best bike I ever had, may upgrade later, but will never sell, nothing against the new sporter s , all things must evolve, but nothing as good as the original. Two wheels down.
Found your page when I got my first Harley Davidson 2021 Sportster Iron 883 in January of 2021. Switched to the 2021 Street Bob 114 about 6 months later and now I just got a 2022 Road Glide ST. Absolutely loved each bike for different reasons but the Sportster will always have a special place in my heart being my first Harley. Think a lot of people took this same path. The Sportster just gave you the Harley look, feel, and definitely the sound at an affordable price. Don't know if I would be on a $35,000 + bike now if I couldn't have gotten that Sporty for $10,000.
💯 thanks for watching man
Exact same path and bike progression. Couldn’t agree more. Wouldn’t be on my RG ST if it wasn’t for the 883.
I would have never got into Harleys if it wasn’t for the 883. Entry level price got me in. Now on my 2022 Road Glide ST. Need entry level bikes at a low price point to get people in.
The Sportster lineup has not been canceled, the history of the Sportster lives on in the Nightster and Sportster S. Instead, it has just entered a new era. A new era that brings it back to its performance roots with the horsepower of the RevMax platform. In the 50's and 60's the Sportster was a high performance machine, and the Sportster S and Nightster pay homage to those days with their performance characteristics. One twist of the throttle in Sport mode will make you a believer.
Nightster 975 and Sportsters S 1250 are’nt really high performance machines by today standards tho. Better keep em classic, good looking and reliable.
@@MasterBlasta The Sportster S can hold its own against the likes of the MT-09. 120hp in a sporty cruiser that weighs 500lbs is really fun.
The new RevMax engine that sounds like a Japanese bike. Complete and utter trash that only hipsters are proud to promote. That engine will kill the Harley brand. Mark my words
The Nightster and sportster s are awesome bikes that will carry on the legacy 👍🏽
@@willyafg Have you ridden a RevMax bike yet?
The revolution engine bikes are literally WORSE than the vrods that came before them. Ugly, sound terrible, and overpriced as hell. Harley is out of its mind for cancelling it's only entry level bikes in it's lineup and has forgotten who their core customers are.
EXACTY why I finally bought my Iron 883 2 months ago. Videos like yours that said this could be the last year to get a brand new one. Eventually I will get a bigger bike but I will never sell my 883.
Still have my 2012 Nightster love that bike, I'll never get rid of it
x 2
I still own my First Bike which was a 2005 883 sportster. I've owned other bikes but i still love that bike. I'm on a 21 FXLRS now but touring on it. Probably best said by you was it got me into the HD lifestyle for the last almost 2 decades. It made me who i am today.
🔥👊🏽
Enjoy the channel. Yes, lots of us will miss the air-cooled Evolution engine (883 & 1200) in the 2022 and older Sportsters, but to your point there are literally thousands and thousands of these around in people's garages and the used bike market. And aftermarket support for these is huge. These will no doubt be around for decades. Just not any more brand new ones after the 2022 model year.
Brings up a related subject matter: Progress to meet ever tightening emissions standards, but with that comes more performance. Just take a minute to look at the performance of the new generation liquid cooled engine family (re: Sportster-S 1250cc & Nightster 975cc)...the Revolution Max. They are well performing machines.
Which brings up the current engine (M8) in the Touring chassis since 2017 (& Softail since 2018). Seems logically that the Motor Co. is probably working on a larger displacement version of the liquid-cooled Revolution Max. I would imagine something in the 1500 to 1750 cc, with more stroke to boost low end torque for use in a heavier touring chassis. I would also imagine that the M8 will be around for at least a few more years, perhaps until 2027 or 2028??? I can picture a Road Glide with a 1750cc (possibly 2000cc) with nicely designed CVO style lower fairing/chin spoiler purposely designed to somewhat "hide" the radiator. What do you guys think?
Tom M., Southwest U.S. '21RGS, RDRS, 114 now displacing 120 cu.in. M8 (4.125" bore x 4.500" stroke). S&S, Trask, Fuel Moto, Dynojet, etc., etc., etc.
👊🏽
bought my 1st in 76, built an easy rider style next and an electra glide and last a 48. The stuff now looks like a space ship. I'm an old man now, glad I was around for motorcycles when they were motorcycles.
I’m 62 and the day bikes go all electric hopefully I’ll be dead
My first Harley was a 2018 Iron 1200. It was a fun bike to ride and customize. It will always have a place in my heart and on my walls. I then moved up to a 2020 Low Rider S as well a year later. Wanted something with a bigger gas tank and more power. Great video man, but like everything else there comes a time for change. Love the channel and keep up the great work.
The Nightster is cool but a lot less "entry-level" friendly. The real sad thing is H-D doesn't have a "wallet friendly" air-cooled v-twin offering for a first motorcycle. I took the MSF BRC at my local Harley dealer and shortly after getting my license I bought a 2022 XL883N. Coming off of learning on a Street 500, the 883 felt really good, comfortable, light, easy handling, very manageable throttle, just a really fun and forgiving motorcycle for a noob like me who's heart's desire was a Harley-Davidson. Glad I got mine, it checks off all the boxes and I'm loving all the miles of smiles she gives to me. I'm waiting to see what special offerings H-D may have for the 120th Anniversary, something with a batwing is my next Harley, but the 883 will be buried with me, never toss the first bike, maybe hand it down but don't get rid of it.
The government doesn't live up to my standards. Can we get rid of them instead?
🎉This is because a lot has changed in recent years) yes, there are many fans of sportsters and yet) even novice bikers began to buy more street bob and motorcycles equal to it) in countries with low wages, many people ride sportsters just because for a larger motorcycle, which is already very different in price, they do not pull financially. I know sportsters will return) these legends will be with us forever! Greetings from Baku Azerbaijan🇦🇿
This is kind of sad for a lot of us Sportster was our first harley.
Just bought a 22’ forty eight today, it was the last one the Harley dealership had. Definitely a weird and sad thing to know they aren’t going to make them anymore, like you said, I’m all for clean air, however, not a big fan of where the automobile industry is heading, if someone wants an electric vehicle, that’s great but we should also be able to own any kind of vehicle we want without the government telling us what’s acceptable. I plan on keeping this beauty forever though. It’ll be interesting to see what kind of value they have in 30-40 years, looking back and knowing I was able to buy one of the last ones they ever made is going to be a crazy feeling.
RIP Evo sporty, best engine ever made imo.
Just a bought a 2020 Iron 1200 so I will be enjoying this for a while. I think it sucks they are doing away with them.
It Deff saddens me
It’s ok you can still buy an older evo sporty for like 1500-3000$
Yes there’s tons of good used ones out there 💯
I still prefer the simplicity of the Road King to any of the Glide bikes
I started my Harley journey with a 2013 sportster 72 in matte black. Still miss that bike till today ..wish I would of kept it . Can’t wait to see how Harley progresses into the next type of bikes. It’s always a love hate thing ! Great video brotha
It's a the sad day for old guys like me the 74 cubic inch engine is what I love so my current bike in my garage I'll just have to keep rebuilding. I just hope Harley doesn't bankrupt because of it.
The Sportster has enjoyed a 65 year run and if you include the K model that’s 70 years, that’s quite a feat. I like the nightster, so far though Harley itself keeps shooting itself in the foot price wise.
It was just a matter of time.
That already happened in the Rest of the World after 2020 MY.
Tighter emission standards as you said and the Evo that’s been around since 1986, was too expensive to update.
Of course, it made more sense for Harley to use the RevMax platform with it’s multiple displacement engines.
I do own a 2006 883 Low and I do not plan to part ways with it… that’sa keeper
It’s the end of an ERA. The evolution of change. Another good informative video. Keep up the good work. Many blessings.
People should consider the Softail Standard if they were looking into a Sportster. Sporter prices kept going up every year it's probably a better buy anyway 👍
I agree having owned a Sportster and now ride a Street Bob, same exact as a Standard but blacked out. I actually find the Softail easier and more balanced to ride. Not sure if the power difference would intimidate newer riders. I was experienced before either one, owning a lot of dual sports mostly KTM's that have light switch throttles.
This ought to make people that like those things that Harley is calling "Sportsters" think. *Years from now, how many choppers do you think you'll see made out of those things?*
this is worse than the yankees not resigning aaron judge. what a total bummer.
Talk about it 💀
Judge would look good in a SF Giants uni. 🤘⚡️🤘
I think you mean they cancelled the "evo" sportster.
No. The real Sportster
As an Indian rider, it's really sad to see it go. I know it'll continue under different iterations, but it breaks my heart nonetheless.
I love my 883 it's my first bike and I grew up around a sportster
Thinking and reading the comments, Harley "dropped" the Sportster late 80's and early 90's. The evolution never evolved in the Sportster. Look at the big twin. Evolution 1340. Then TC 88, 96, 103 and 110 with some tweaks along the way. Now M8 107, 114 and 117 with factory crate motor 131. Sportster was 883 end 1200, only real upgrade was fuel injection. If the Sportster would have evolved alongside the big twins, maybe the air cooled version could live alongside the water cooled ones. Imagine the same Sportster look with about 80-90ci engine, 6 speed tranny, dual plug heads and 4 valves per cylinder. Wouldn't replace my Softail with it, but be fun to have on the barn with all our other bikes.
I love the Sportster. I recently traded in my Sportster S for a Low Rider ST. I’m sure H-D will continue on just fine with or without the Sportster lineup.
I was sad when they discontinued the Deluxe.
The Nightster is not a "starter" bike IMO. HD will need to come out with a sub 70HP bike under $8k for new and younger riders otherwise the company will not have a gateway for new customers to come into the brand. Sportster, as we know it, had its day in the sun and we all sort of knew that this day would come.
I don’t care what anyone says, Sportsters are awesome, I’ve had 3 & really miss riding those bikes. I have a Superglide now & love it but my Sportsters were all bulletproof & I rode them very hard, never had any issues at all, great bikes!
I own and iron 883 a 2022 model and it’s my first bike and I do like it I wish they still made the iron 1200
I just hope they don't discontinue the Road King cause I just bought a 21 Rk special.
The Nightster should be the entry level bike for Harley-Davidson
Husband has an 05 1200c, beautiful, Maroon and Grey. Unfortunate Harley getting away from Sportster platform. Best Bike ever from Harley. Kooks that label them,probably ones on Groms poaching motorists via Go Pro,or the Compensating for Something other,that also bag on the Proven Sportster. Hubby may get other bikes,but will never let go of his Sportster.
Come on, plz at least keep one old school sportster model.
I'd love to know what source your getting this information from, since I can't find a single news post in main stream media citing this.
Sportster is getting replaced with CARB compliant “SOYGLIDE”!
Hahahahahahaha hilarious. They want us to go green but China and India won't?
I think its a mistake,uncountable numbers started riding HARLEY DAVIDSONS on sportsters that would have started on another brand and probably would have not been as popular with the opposite sex if you catch my drift, on a brighter side the existing Sportsters will be worth more now and maybe considered a collectors item
I WILL NEVER TRADE MY IRON 1200 FOR ANYTHING! Test rode an M8 and 1/4 into the ride I wanted to go back and jump on my Evo. I have a stage one with Legends and a bunch of other stuff put into it.
They will still have the new nightster though, I don't think the air cooled stuff can be sold in Europe under the new regulations and that's why they're doing away with it, everything is probably going to be built around that new motor
Yes I mentioned the Nightster
@@Marvelkid87 gotcha...i was woking and watching, must have missed it lol
It's the old school look for the sportser that died
Much rather have the irons. The sporster s is the ugliest bike I've ever seen. Bad move imo.
Dammmmn feels like my favorite tv show just ended m… good thing I got my iron 1200 when I did
We knew it was coming so suppose it's not a shock and no surprise. I've owned a 1200 Roadster, really enjoyed riding it and a great looking and feeling bike. But would I choose one instead of my M8 Low Rider or Pan America - no! A such, doesn't really matter to or bother me that the Evo Sporster has gone. Life goes on and as I still have 2 bikes that I would ride over the Sporster, no sleep lost. I don't like the looks of the Sportster S and I wouldn't buy the Nightster given I alrady have the 2 Harleys of my choice. That said, the Coy needs an entry level model and the Nightster is good to have available for that entry level customer. Harley could also look at an entry level small Adventure bike similiar to the BMW 310GS as this may appeal to a stack of the younger folk as it would be more affordable and a more practical commuter.
Older Sportster's value is going to shoot through the roof. (Pre fuel injection)
First the Dyna now the Sportster Dam whats next lol, Harley making big moves let’s hope it’s for the best.
Will the sportster s still be available?
Cancelling the sportster for emissions reasons and dodge comes out with another 700hp beast. I don’t buy all the emissions talk. I believe it’s just all about the money and little profit from the sportsters in today market.
The writing had been on the wall for a while. It's easily because the evo engine won't meet new emission standards worldwide. The nightster and sportster s are ugly AF and over priced. I will be interested to see when Harley will start putting the liquid cooled engines into the baggers, you know that's coming soon enough as well
Yea I think we’ve all saw it coming once they were no longer sold in the europe . I’m actually a fan of the Nightster and sports s I think they look great and the performance is Deff there.
Now instead of buying a sportser for $15K Harley wants you to spend double and pay $30K on a bagger....might not work our very well for Harley....plus everything going electric 🙄
Weems is in the middle of chopping up your '75, sry MK
The sporters 😭😭😭 R. I. P SOLTAIL 🤣🤣🤣🤣😁🤗
I think it's not a good idea....so what's gonna be the entry level Harley if you want to get a new Harley? The Softail Standard?
The Nightster
It’s sad… I hope it will come back. Perhaps with a smaller M8 engine…🙏🛐🤞🏻What’s your favorite 2022 sportster?
We have the Nightster to replace it. Mine is the 48
@Otherwise Healthy I hope not. Not a fan of the 1250/975 revo max.
So for 2023 there will be no entry level bike from Harley Davidson 😭
U have the Nightster
Appreciate the Sportster for it's longevity. Is it time? Purists will say no. Buyers probably say yes with sales numbers.
I think we all learned on a 883 and I very much enjoyed mine. That being said I don't mind the nightster or the sportster s for what they are 👍
Nightster is a great follow up
@@Marvelkid87 agreed
Kinda sad ain't it .......... How's everyone going to be able to afford them high dollar EV'S . I wouldn't want one to begin with , not even a ev dodge charger . Even if things went the way of the law , now we have days when we can't charge a vehicle cause if we do it'll suck all the power at once. I'm seeing problems in this future . I'm seeing vehicles being burned cause of l malfunction just like the Harley Davidson livewire . I knew that thing wouldn't make it . Just seen one at the Harley dealership in Colorado. No e looking but no.
Where was this announced? Nothing written on this lately
It’s been advertised all over the place
@@Marvelkid87 in the last month?
Relax, there's still the Indian Scout and the Yamaha Bolt (which is superior to the Sportster in many ways).
No more sportsters that's just sad that's like saying no more America I hate our government
You have the nightster and sportster s
Reliable Sportster 😂🤣😂
Only the oil cooled storster because no one is buying them seeing they have the liquid cooled ones that have more proformance in them.
Chinas manufacturing emissions go in regulated because that supports our economy because we sold all our labor manufacturing jobs. This is the death of HD where will new riders start, on a soft tail?
I do not like the Sportster S. Is just not what I see a Harley as.
Yerrrrrr
Yerrrr
New sub ! Liked ✌️🙏👍👍🙂❤️
It’s the end of an ERA. The evolution of change. Another good informative video. Keep up the good work. Many blessings.
Thanks you
