The Night Rod is a sharpie alright, I thought the Street Rod was a winner too. I wouldn't turn my nose up at either one

My only beefs with the bike was the riding position wasn't ideal for me, and the gas tank was way too small. Other than that, I would love to have a Night Rod Special in the garage.
The 1250 Revolution engine cruises quite nicely at 4k revs around town and 5k+ on the highway!
