Harley-Davidson Nightster (RH975) був представлений у 2022 році як модель початкового рівня в лінійці Harley Sportster S, призначена для залучення молодших та нових гонщиків до бренду. Він оснащений двигуном Revolution Max 975T V-twin, меншим робочим об'ємом, ніж агрегат 1250 куб. см, знайдений у Sportster S, і представляв поштовх Harley у більш сучасний сегмент крейсерів середньої ваги. Nightster відрізнявся поєднанням класичних стилів Sportster із сучасною технологією з рідинним охолодженням, допомагаючи Harley конкурувати з конкурентами середньої ваги.

Що повинні знати покупці
Revolution Max Engine
The Nightster 975 uses Harley's modern liquid-cooled Revolution Max 975T engine, a significant departure from air-cooled designs. This improves reliability and thermal management, especially in stop-and-go city riding.
Watch the Rear Suspension
Early owners reported the single rear shock can feel underdamped with a passenger or luggage, and some units showed premature wear. Budget for a potential suspension upgrade if you plan to ride two-up regularly.
Strong Resale Holds
As Harley's entry into the middleweight segment, the Nightster 975 appeals to both new and experienced riders, keeping used demand relatively strong. Its lower MSRP compared to bigger Harleys also makes it easier to resell quickly.

"A flawed but genuinely exciting used buy with real character."
$7,500-$10,500 usedThe Nightster 975 is genuinely one of the more interesting Harleys in years — that Revolution Max 975T motor pulls hard from low revs and sounds properly mean without being obnoxious. It's narrow, flickable, and doesn't feel like you're riding a barge. For a used buy, the 2022-2023 examples are hitting sweet spots price-wise right now, and the engine has proven reliable so far. Check the electronics package — some early units had minor throttle-by-wire glitches that dealers sorted under warranty. The honest downsides? Seat comfort beyond 90 minutes is genuinely poor, and taller riders above 6-foot will feel cramped. The suspension is on the soft side stock, and if the previous owner hammered it, check for sagging rear. Tank range is tight at around 130 miles real-world. Parts availability is solid being a Harley, but labor rates at H-D dealers will sting. For the money used, it punches above its weight as an urban middleweight with serious character. Just budget for a better seat immediately.
