When comparing the ride quality of the 883R and XR1200, the 1200 had too harsh a ride for my all-day-in-the-saddle type of riding and the seat was just not as comfy as the contoured one on the 883R. The 883R had smoother ride, and for my money, handled every bit as well as the XR1200 on twisty country roads at cruising speeds.
With double disc brakes up front, each seemed to have abundant stopping power available. With its blacked-out engine and XR750-inspired competition orange/black/white livery, the 883R is an impressive looking machine backed up with solid performance and reliability that still brings smiles a decade on. It takes the excitement of the track and makes it street legal, and with the two-up seat you can take a friend along for the ride.
The Sportster family engines of the same year as the XL883R are available in two displacements, 1200cc and 883cc, both of which are air-cooled engines. The Sportster family is comparatively inexpensive, and the model with the 883cc engine was particularly popular as an entry-level Harley model. Models with 883cc engines also exist in a wide range of variations, but the XL883R is a model designed with sportiness in mind. The "R" in the name stands for "Racing," and the nimble styling was inspired by dirt track racers.
The XL883R has a higher ride height and more bank angle than other models in the Sportster family. Nevertheless, because it is a cruiser model, it has good footing, and even smaller riders should not feel insecure. The Sportster family is lighter and more nimble in handling than the big-twin family, which conquers the mainstream of heavy cruisers. It is a model that is relatively easy to get used to, even for riders who have switched from naked models.
