The 2009 Nightster™ takes the Sportster® legend in a dark direction with dead-on, rat-rod styling. The wheel rims and hubs, forks and handlebar, hand and foot controls feature black finishes that provide desirable dark styling. The bike features a bullet-hole belt guard and old school style fork gaiters. The low seat height of 25.3 inches combined with the new smaller front and rear fenders show more of the black laced steel wheels for extra style. Finish it off with a masterful 1200 Evolution® engine and a Chrome Slash-Cut Staggered exhaust and you have a bike made for the night.
