The 2013 Iron 883 continued the blacked-out Dark Custom formula: black powder-coated engine parts, a drag bar, a solo seat, a chopped rear fender with a side plate and the classic peanut tank. It kept the lowered suspension and mid controls, came on Michelin Scorcher tyres, and could be ordered with the optional hands-free security system.
