2026 Harley-Davidson® Nightster®The Beginning of Something Better At 481 lbs wet with a low 27” seat height, the 2026 Nightster carries its weight where it counts: low, centered, and in your control. Add a blacked-out 975T Revolution Max® motor, selectable ride modes, LED lighting, and legacy Sportster styling, and you’ve got an incomparably capable machine, no matter where you’re coming from. Features may include: Striking Style That Hits Your Mark A new blacked-out powertrain with highlighted fins gives the 2026 Nightster a sharper, more aggressive edge, while its low 27” seat height, lightweight 481 lb. build, and vintage Sportster touches give it a profile that couldn’t be more Harley. Hard-Hitting Blacked-Out Powertrain Updated for 2026 with highlighted cooling fins, the blacked-out Revolution Max 975T powertrain on the Nightster hits harder on the dark, custom, sport-driven attitude riders have been asking for. You asked, and we listened. Low, Locked-In Stance A 27” seat height and classic rider triangle lock you into a balanced, confident riding position, whether you’re easing off the side stand or tipping it into the next corner. Dual Outboard Rear Shocks More travel than legacy Sportsters means a smoother ride so you can stay planted without losing the edge that makes the Nightster so much fun to ride. Premium Brembo Brakes All the stopping power you need. A four-piston Brembo caliper up front, single-piston in the rear, and floating rotors all around give the Nightster® the kind of stopping power that feels intuitive, balanced, and precise. Every piece falls into place to keep you in control of all 91 (HDI: 89) horses waiting under your right hand. Full LED Lighting Bright, low-draw LED lighting keeps you visible from every angle while throwing a clean, white beam to light your path after dark
