Description
Charisma, build quality, poise, unmistakable engine sound... Great combination of technology and aesthetics. Ready to rumble through the roads and backstreets, the Nightster takes the Sportster legend in a dark direction with dead-on, rat-rod styling. Black finishes cover wheel rims and hubs, forks and handlebar, hand and foot controls. Old school style fork gaiters and a bullet-hole belt guard highlight the original look. A low suspension puts the rider at seat height of just 25.3 inches. The new smaller front and rear fenders show more of the black laced steel wheels. The 1200 Evolution engine melodiously roars through a Chrome Slash-Cut Staggered exhaust.
Sportster models are powered by the Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection (ESPFI) XL Evolution V-Twin powertrain, rubber-mounted in the frame to monimize vibration and tuned to deliver a flat torque curve for responsive performance. Among the most-affordable Harley-Davidson models, Sportster motorbikes offer a low, comfy seat, smooth clutch effort, and an enduring carbon fiber reinforced final drive belt.
