So, I feel guilty as Patrick over at Daytona was very helpful.. But after much deliberation I have decided to get the HD Iron 883 in black denim.. Yes the yamaha is faster, yes the yamaha is smoother, and yes the yamaha has better brakes.. But the fit and finish on the Iron 883 is far superior after seeing them both up close.. I will be picking it up tomorrow and will post some pics once its safely back home.. Im a big supporter of Jap and Euro everything so this is a big leap for me buying a domestic.. My "this is the one" moment was when I sat on the bike, fired it up, and heard the throaty Frap of the exhaust note.. Instantly I felt like a badass ready to cruise the streets for no other reason other than self gratification.. It's a bike with soul (I know that might sound cheesy) and I guess that's what it's all about at the end of the day? Hopefully everyone won't mind riding with a baby Harley
