Ever since its introduction in 2007, the Nightster® model has prowled the streets with a deep, menacing growl. Low, dark and aggressive, it brought a styling attitude to the Sportster® family that had not been seen before – a raw, Dark Custom™ bike that delivers a 1200cc knockout punch. With chopped front and rear fenders, side-mounted license plate, combined stop/turn/tail lights, low 25.3-inch seat height, old-school front fork gaiters and raw-boned graphics and a unique finish on its V-Twin Evolution® engine for a gritty, no-nonsense look, the Nightster® model is the motorcycle for those who want Sportster® performance coupled with an attitude.
