The best Harley I've owned yet - but not perfect

This is the 3rd Harley I've owned and it is by far my favorite yet. After tons of mechanical and electrical problems with my 2007 VRSCD Night Rod I traded it in on a 2009 Nightster. I've been saying for years, since the Nightster rolled out mid-year in 07, that it was the best looking Harley in the ...line and my 2-tone silver/black Nightster holds true to this. I'm only 5'11" and ~170-180 lbs so this bike fits me perfectly. Even without a windshield I could ride this bike for hours. But, with the small peanut tank, rides are limited to about ~100 miles at a time which isn't too bad. The ride can be pretty awful at times - when the shortened rear shocks hit a substantial bump you'll feel a pretty good jar to your spine. It sometimes almost feels like a rigid frame. But otherwise the ride is great. Ground clearance is not an issue at all either straight up or in a turn but you will find that the short height mixed with the sportys turning ability that peg scraping will be easy. Overall I absolutely adore this bike. Where else are you going to buy, for all intensive purposes, a $10,000 chopper? With a set of V&H pipes and a stage 1 upgrade or a heavy breather intake, looks and performance will dramatically improve above the high mark they're already at. Read Full Review

I love my Nightster

Coming from riding an 883L, the Nightster is an incredible upgrade...I had to replace the stock shocks on my 883 to dump some of the bumps but the stock Nightster shocks are a definite upgrade (the seat is better too). I have also added a heavy breather and Stage 1 + tuner - she's a pocket rocket.

...

I am debating on getting a reach solo seat for a little extra comfort on highway stretches but other than that this is my dream bike - orange and black and with the S&S pipes she is like a mean, loud wasp.

Can't think of anywhere I'd rather be, all day all night than on the Nightster.

no room for tire biters.

I bought the bike 3 weeks ago and love everything about it. i have a 2008 honda cbr and 1993 kawasaki vulcan 1500 and this is a way rougher ride than either of them. It's how i like my women, and how i like my bikes. People comment on it everywhere i go. the classic orange and black is stunning and ...everyone thinks its an old bobber. Read Full Review
