Segment: Custom/Cruiser
Production years: 2004, 2005
The 2005 MY Harley Davidson XL 883C Sportster 883 Custom is one of the most agile cruisers from House Milwaukee, and mainly addresses riders who want a fast machine for busy city traffic, which can also tackle longer, weekend strolls through the countryside or on twisting mountain roads. At its heart lies an air-cooled, 883cc, Evolution V-Twin powerhouse mated to a five-speed manual transmission, and can produce a claimed 69 Nm of torque at 4300 rpm.
The highlights for this model are the chrome, staggered shorty dual exhaust and pull-back handlebar riser, a large, 21", laved-steel front wheel, a disc, 16" rear wheel, an one-piece, two-up seat, forward-mounted foot controls, a 4.5-gallon fuel tank, plus a silver, powder-coat finish on the engine.
