RE: newbie ?
I have read many posts by people who bought the 883 and wished they had bought the 1200. I have not read any posts by any one who bought a 1200 and wished they had bought and 883. Take that for what it's worth. You will recover most of the difference in cost the day you sell it!

The 883's confort zone seems to end right around 55 MPH
