Sporter 883 bored to 1100

Hey guys. Im new here but kinda hope someone can help me. I am currently riding a Honda 600 Shadow...i know...honda..But i found a 1995 Harley Sportster 883 with 7,000 miles. The guy is asking 3,000 dolalrs for it. Now i want a harley very bad. I kinda wanted a 1200 but this came up. Im a student so i cant go drop 15,000 on a bike. The guy also said his 883 is bored out to an 1100. Do yall guys think it will have some good amount of power..or is this bike to small??? Im not a huge guy, not at all. Im 6 foot around 185.

Its all about propriety and good manners bro. Introducing yourself first before running on a bend is only good manners. And someone gave you a polite/pleasant heads up too.
