The nice thing about the 883 is that you can upgrade it to the 1200 for less than the price difference between the 883 and 1200. So if you ever catch yourself saying "why didn't I spend the extra $2,000 for the 1200," you can be assured that many dealerships will do the conversion for about $8-900.

Quick comment about forward controls: they can be a hassle if you are vertically challenged. Are you over 5'8"-9"?

Yes I am 6'0" and I am riding an 883 LOW so everything is a change for those of us not vertically challenged on the low. Plus a bike being fuel injected is just down right strange.....
