The New 2017 Harley- Davidson Iron 883

The new Harley-Davidson Iron 883 is a gorgeous bike as you can see from the pictures, but as H-D says its “Aggressive throwback styling taken to a place altogether new. No need to shine this machine. Just get on and tear up the nearest street.” They have gone and really done it with this motorcycle especially for those that like the “Dark Arts” look.

H-D also said this about the Iron 883 “You’re looking at a pioneer of raw, blacked-out, stripped-down custom style. In the years since its introduction, it has only gotten better. Fine-tuned suspension. Tuck and roll seat. Black cast aluminum wheels with machined highlights. And blacked-out surfaces from fender to fender. You get everything you need. And nothing you don’t.”

As with the other 2017 line that gave you more of what you wanted.

Harley motorcycle riders have felt the pull to amp up their powertrain performance since the beginning. Greater acceleration as well as increased passing power, or just more of that rip-roaring, raw Harley-Davidson exhaust sound.

A performance engine build can be intimidating, but you don’t have to start from scratch. A factory-engineered Screamin’ Eagle® Stage upgrade is the place to start with complete, street compliant performance configurations for the increased torque and horsepower you are looking for.

Make it your own

As with all Harley Motorcycles, this 2017 Iron 883 is available to be customized to make it your own. Customize your Style, Fit, Color, Performance, Function and more to have a bike that is all you. It comes in 5 standard colors one being this gorgeous Hard Candy Hot Rod Red Flake shown here.

A funny October Biker Story:

If you missed the post on October 5th, we posted a funny yet spooky story with it. We didn’t want you to miss it so we are reposting it today.

alloween Sale- BALACLAVA - SKULL GLOW — BALACLAVA – SKULL GLOW

One of our family members tells this tale about an October evening when he was riding with a full face mask on.

“I was riding home on my bike one evening and it was really dark and starting to get a bit foggy. Yeah, I know October and foggy a good combination right, well not with a motorcycle. However, I am riding along home and trying to pay attention to the road when this big rig rides up behind me and gets on my rear. Not one to like that, I slow down that I guess irritated the driver so he started to go around.

Now, I should tell you before the next part that the I am wearing a full face mask that glows in the dark and looks like a mean skull. Now that you know that I’ll tell you what happened next. He gets up next to me I can only assume he was fixing to flip me off, but when he sees my face mask he freaks out and puts on his breaks, I can only assume to get away from me. I laughed all the way home, from then on I have always worn that mask at night as it has helped me with many a driver.”

2017 Sportster Forty-Eight from Harley-Davidson Has Plenty of Attitude

Harley-Davidson’s 2017 Sportster Forty-Eight Has lots of Attitude from fender to fender. Due to our enthusiasm for motorcycles, we at AMERiders are bringing you the low-down on this beauty. The 2017 Forty-Eight motorcycle rumbles at you with more Dark Custom attitude than ever, from its fat front end to its cast aluminum wheels. This is one beauty you don’t want to miss!

HD didn’t just rebuild it, they reloaded it.

In 1948 the world got it’s first glimpse of this iconic 2.1-gallon gas tank. However, the world has never seen it sitting atop anything quite like this. The 2017 Sportster Forty-Eight has been designed with its signature bulldog stance and the powerful 1200cc Evolution engine. Furthermore, it has large 49mm front forks, an adjustable rear suspension, cast aluminum wheels with floating rotors as well as powerful brakes. All this brings plenty of handling and comfort to all this beauty’s heavy-hitting style.

You wanted more they gave it to you!

Handling

The street is the home turf of the Sportster motorcycle, and a narrow, agile frame wrapped around a strong V-Twin engine has always been its calling card. To see how far Harley has taken this basic equation, get in the saddle of any 2017 Sportster Forty-Eight. The list of constant innovations and refinements you experience on the Sportster motorcycle of today is more than you want to read about here. The latest innovation includes suspension on every model, with cartridge emulsion rear shocks and a screw adjuster to further dial in the handling. It all feels tight and right, bringing confidence to the ride and a grin to the rider. Whether you’re rocketing to the next stoplight, threading through the urban grid, or busting out of the city limits to parts unknown.

Comfort

When one thinks of the raw-boned style of a Sportster motorcycle they may not immediately think of comfort. That would be a mistake, especially with the 2017 Sportster Forty-Eight. Sink into the seat of any 2017 Sportster model and you discover a premium ride hidden under all the lean and mean styling. The engine is rubber-mounted to the frame, so you feel all the power of an Evolution V-Twin but none of the vibrations. Read more about it and other key features here…

From sketch to steel

Ben McGinley joined Harley-Davidson® five years ago and has been banging out brilliance ever since. A lifelong gearhead, he goes straight to the heart of the machine to turn a sketch on paper to real iron and steel. Inspired by the renaissance of custom bike building, and from events like Yokohama Hot Rod Custom Show, Rockerbox Motofest, and Brewtown Rumble, Ben focuses on the real honesty and authenticity of materials to find what’s cool about the bikes and bring it forward.

For Ben, the Forty-Eight® motorcycle has always been the epitome of Harley-Davidson minimalism. “It really goes back to simplicity and honesty. Two wheels and a V-Twin right in the center.” It’s about design, not decoration. Stripped back pure and, as always, without compromise.

Make it your own

As with all Harley Motorcycles, this 2017 Sportster Forty-Eight is available to be customized to make it your own. Customize your Style, Fit, Color, Performance, Function and more to have a bike that is all you.

Winter is Coming! Steps to keep Cold Weather from harming your Ride!

AMERiders knows how important it is to Winterize your Ride to Protect it from the Cold during the Winter months. So we offer you these tips to help keep the Motorcycle Doctor at Bay! We may not want to admit it but Winter is coming! For some of us, it is already here or will be in the next couple of weeks. As the air starts to cool off and the snow starts to fall, some of us will begrudgingly store our bikes. Then sit there tapping our feet waiting for warmer spring weather to ride again.

If your idea of storing your bike for winter is just throwing a cover over it, you may be in for some nasty surprises come spring time. The last thing anyone wants to find out when riding season starts is that their bike won’t start. So use these tips to make sure your ride is as ready as you are when it’s time to hit the road. To keep your motorcycle in peak running condition, there are some thins that need to be done before storing it.

Steps to Winterize your Ride

Depending on what kind of motorcycle you have there may be different things you will need to address. However, there are some general things to do to get ready for storage. The main enemy during winter storage for any bike is damage from moisture. So most of our winterizing efforts will be aimed at keeping that away from your bike. In addition, the fuel system, battery, tires, and all your moving parts will get some love as well. With a little prep work, you’ll save yourself a lot of time and hassle come spring time. Plus your bike will be ready to hit the road as soon as you are!

1) Surface Prep

Washing your bike before storage is important; as letting bug guts or water spots sit on your paint can corrode the finish permanently. Wash your bike and dry it completely to get all the moisture off the surfaces (an electric leaf blower is a great way to get all the nooks and crannies really dry.)

Next add a coat of wax, which will act as a deterrent and a barrier against moisture and rust. Lastly, spray exposed metal surface with WD-40 to displace all moisture (did you know: the WD in “WD-40” stands for water displacement) and to give them a protective coating against corrosion.

2) Change Oil and Filter

Change your oil and filter. It’s better for your lubrication system to have fresh oil sitting in it for several months than to have used, broken down oil in it. Not to mention the last thing you’ll want to do when riding season begins is change the oil before you can go ride. Using a winter weight oil like 5W30 can help it start up easier come spring time as well.

If you’re going to be storing your bike for a long time (4-6 months or more) you will want to protect your engine’s internals against moisture by coating them lightly with oil. You may not be able to see it with your naked eye, but the cold winter air is perfect for moisture to gather in your engine and cause rust to form on your pistons and cylinder walls.

In order to do this, remove the spark plugs and put a little squirt (about a tablespoon) of engine oil into the holes, then turn your engine over a few times to coat the cylinder walls by spinning the rear wheel with the bike in gear. Once everything is coated, replace the spark plugs.

3) Lube Moving Parts

Ensure that moving parts are lubed for winter, this will help keep moisture from building up on them. If not lubed they can cause rusting or binding. Any part of your motorcycle that needs to be lubed at any point should be lubed again before storage. Some parts to check are the chain drive, cables, controls, fork surfaces, and any other pivot points.

4) Prep Fuel System

Another important step to Winterize your Ride is to prep your fuel system. Gas tanks have a tendency to rust when not in use, an untreated pump gas breaks down and becomes gummy over time. To prevent rusting and make sure your fuel is ready to run after a few months in storage, you’ll want to fill your tank completely with fuel treated with a product like Sta-Bil Fuel Stabilizer.

On your last ride of the season, stop in at the gas station nearest to where you will be storing your bike and add the proper amount of fuel stabilizer, then top off the tank. A full tank will keep moisture from building up on the tank walls, and adding the stabilizer before the short ride home will help mix the gas and stabilizer together and run it through your fuel system before storage.

5) Safeguard Battery

Batteries have a tendency to self-discharge when sitting over time, especially when they remain hooked up to the bike. The easiest way to combat this is to hook up a battery tender to monitor the charge and keep the battery topped off without overcharging. Normally you should pull the battery from the bike for storage, but with a smart tender, you can also connect the tender with the battery left in the bike. Before doing this, make sure the electrodes are clean and corrosion free; if necessary, clean them off and give them a light coating of grease.

6) Protect Tires

If your tires are left to sit in the same position all winter long, they could develop flat spots. Keeping the tires off of the ground will prevent this. One way to do this is with Motorcycle Stands, raise the bike up on them for storage. If you don’t have stands, then at least try to raise the rear tire off the ground. When that is not an option then rotate your tires by rolling your motorcycle slightly every few weeks. And If the motorcycle needs to be down on concrete, put a piece of carpet or plywood under it to keep any moisture from seeping into the tires.

7) Check Coolant/Anti-freeze

If you’ll be storing your bike somewhere that gets below freezing, ensure you have adequate levels of antifreeze in your coolant system. This is very important! If you run straight water in your coolant system and it freezes, you could come back to a cracked head in the spring!

8) Plug Out Pests

Mice and other rodents are notorious for hiding from the cold inside exhaust pipes and making homes out of air filters. If order to avoid any furry surprises when it’s time to ride again, plug up your pipes with an exhaust plug like the BikeMaster Rubber Muffler Plug. You can also simply stuff your air intake and the ends of your exhaust with some plastic bags – but do use bright colored bags or tie something to them so you don’t forget take them out when you fire up the bike!

9) Keep it Covered

Since you have made all the preparations to Winterize your Ride, it is smart to invest in a proper motorcycle cover. A quality motorcycle cover will not only keep dust off the bike, but will keep the moisture out so it doesn’t get trapped underneath it, and create corrosion or rust. If you’re storing it outside, be sure to get a cover with tie downs to prevent it from blowing loose in wind. If you’re storing it inside you’re in much better shape, but you should still use a cover to prevent dust from building up on it.

Don’t forget Halloween is around the corner!
