Harley-Davidson has just announced the Battle of the Kings custom bike competition, where Harley dealerships around the world are supplied with the 2016 Sportster Iron 883 Dark Custom and using parts and components from the official HD catalogue, compete to see who can produce the best-looking custom.
Response has been overwhelming, according to an autoevolution report, especially in Europe. It was reported that Italy alone over 40 dealers have applied to take part in the custom competition to customise the Sportster Iron 883.
There is no cutting or welding allowed for the Battle of the Kings customs, although new paint is permissible. New parts are not allowed to be fabricated, and all components added to the bike must be original HD parts.
Launched last year, the 2016 Sportster Iron 883 Dark Custom is Harley’s relatively low-cost of entry offering into the Harley-Davidson lifestyle. Coming with a 883 cc Evolution air-cooled V-twin engine, the Iron 883 has proven popular with new and lady riders because of its low seat height of 775 mm.
The 2016 Harley-Davidson Sportster Iron 883 Dark Custom is available in Malaysia in a range of four colour schemes – Charcoal Satin, Black Denim, Olive Gold and Hard Candy Custom Gold Flake with flame details at a retail price of RM89,000 including GST.

HDs are grossly under powered, over weight, impractical and hardly manoeuvrable examples of low tech machinery that is obscenely overpriced. Its bad boy reputation was built upon a staged photo that appeared
in Life megazine regarding the Hollister incident, honed by Hollywood and milked by Willie G Davidson himself. Of you really want a slow, fat arsed american bike, get the original american- get an Indian.
