Review: Other than a sore tailbone after long rides, I have had absolutely no problem with my Nightster. It takes curves and corners very smoothly. Those riders that say there is too little lean before it begins dragging the peg are obviously exaggerating their lean, as I have taken extremely sharp curves and have never dragged the peg, although I could if I chose to do so. The problem with the small gas tank (3.3 gallons) is also exaggerated. I get well over 100 miles before the fuel light comes on, and I have driven enough miles with the fuel light on to say I can safely go between 150 and 180 miles on one tank. I have ridden with large groups and do not need to stop any sooner than they do, as even though they have larger fuel tanks, they get lower gas mileage. The bike is also an excellent cruiser, as I have been on long trips, and it rides very smoothly at between 70-80 mph. Obviously, forward pegs and back support, as well as a windshield, make the trip much more enjoyable. I'll be making a trip to Virginia from southern South Carolina and a trip to Indiana sometime this Summer. From my perspective, the Nightster can do anything other motorcycles can do, other than be a racing bike, which it obviously isn't built for.

Features: Sleek, low profile and color (orange and black). Matches orange 1967 Chevelle Super Sport I used to have.

Improvements: Rear Suspension.
