presentation of the XL 1200 N Sportster Nightster 2010

in the Sportster range, this new Nightster could be likened to a little scoundrel. Stripped back, minimalist, picked up like a bad dog ready to gnaw a knee, it takes on the Bobber spirit of some of today's and post-war Harley bigwigs. A low seat, lowered suspension, little chrome, menacing black... the Nightster seems to intimidate the tarmac before clearing its throat with its tumbled 1200. The styling effect is not lacking, especially with the truncated rear mudguard, the gussets at the top of the fork tubes, the small fuel tank and the perforated belt guard. The must-have? We hesitate between the remote number plate or the headlight integrated into the turn signals, all to leave the rear mudguard empty. No, the must-have is obviously the American twin. Sporty, it also delivers a drier sound, thanks to the XL 1200 N's specific exhausts. Even though it's mounted on silent-blocks, the two-cylinder allows itself to spread the appropriate vibrations with style. With character, emotion and a hellish mouth, the Nightster becomes the bad boy of the Sportster family.

I'm in love with this bike, too bad about the suspension Rating : 5/5
French Ben75011 Model 2008
Great bike, it's a real bike.
For long trips, it's not the best, but it's more than enough.
Small tank, but looks good
Rating : 4/5
French Model 2010
I've been riding this bike for two years now (stage 1)with 185 on the odometer, so there's still plenty of room for improvement! I've been lucky enough to have had a lot of motorcycles in my life, and of all makes (61 years old), this is the one I prefer! Rating : 5/5

French yannick944 Model 2012
Just bought it. Quick to pick up. Excellent sensations. No regrets so far Rating : 5/5
French Clochette Model 2012
I adore her, she's my companion, my accomplice, always ready and discreet, no misses and all-purpose. She took me all over Corsica this summer, even to places where I met very few motorcyclists, in the mountains, on sand and gravel tracks, skirting wild pigs, donkeys and stray dogs with precision and maneuverability. I spend moments of pure happiness with her. Quite simply: the coolest bike for an adventurous girl...LOL... Rating : 5/5
French rpvc83 Model 2011
I got 185 km/h on the odometer, but it's unrideable at that speed, the right pace is 110 km/h 130km/h, cool, on national 90km/h it's great, one throttle and you're off, a real Harley for an affordable price... Rating : 5/5
French battler britton Model 2012
bjr I own 1 nighster 2012 that is transformed into trikes and that I will recover end of sept attention, accessories, free pots, headlight av replace by a pig nose with headlight. Then I will make par leg against the cold and dismountable lete; and I will install a led lighting that replaces the pilot light and modify the air filter 1 jr 100 percent air in and we'll see the mapping later and to me the wind in my hair a frere bikers Rating : 5/5
French RPVC Model 2012
Great engine, only one downside: lack of comfort, but it's a really nice, affordable toy for a Harley, a real Harley without a doubt. Rating : 4/5
Hello, is it pleasant and especially easy to handle in town and what is its fuel consumption in urban use. Rating : 4/5
