The Harley-davidson Sportster 1200 Nightster has a top speed of 175 km/h (estimated), produces 63 hp and weighs 263 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.2/10.

할리데이비슨 스포츠스터 1200 나이스터 (XL1200N) 는 스포츠스터 제품군의 일부로 2007년에 출시되었습니다. 클래식한 보버 스타일에서 영감을 받은 블랙 아웃 및 스트라이프 다운 커스텀 디자인이 특징입니다.미니멀한 디자인, 1인용 시트, 어두운 파워트레인 마감 처리로 다른 스포츠터 모델과는 차별화되는 생생하고 공격적인 외관이 돋보였습니다.나이스터는 2012년에 단종되었지만, 할리는 2022년에 완전히 새로운 레볼루션 맥스 플랫폼 모델을 위해 나이스터라는 이름을 부활시켰습니다.

Watch the Cam Chain

The 1200 Sportster engine is generally reliable, but models from the mid-2000s can develop cam chain tensioner wear over time. Have a pre-purchase inspection check this component to avoid a costly future repair.

💰

Strong Resale Value

The Nightster edition commands a slight premium over standard Sportsters due to its blacked-out aesthetic and limited production years (2007–2012). Well-maintained examples hold value well, especially with low mileage and original parts.

Unique Raw Style

The Nightster features a minimalist, stripped-down look with a peanut tank, drag-style bars, and blacked-out engine cases that set it apart from chrome-heavy Sportster siblings. This distinct styling keeps demand high among retro and custom bike enthusiasts.

"실제 라이더에게 실제로 보상을 제공하는 가장 처량해 보이는 스포츠터입니다."

Nightster는 의상처럼 느껴지지 않고 어둡고 벗겨진 보버의 미학을 잘 보여줍니다. 검게 칠해진 에보 모터와 땅콩 탱크는 스티커 키트에서는 볼 수 없었던 방식으로 멋지게 보입니다.토크는 3,750rpm으로 초반에 강하게 도달하기 때문에 61마리의 말이 130km/h를 초과하여 숨이 차더라도 도시 라이딩과 뒷길에서의 롤링 스로틀은 정말 만족스럽습니다. 686mm 시트는 키가 작은 라이더를 위한 진정한 선물이지만, 263kg의 젖은 좌석은 주유소에서 자전거에서 내리는 순간, 특히 공랭식 트윈이 요리할 때 특히 더운 날에는 1파운드를 느낄 수 있습니다. 오른쪽 레그 스루 데님.4,500rpm 이상의 진동은 진짜입니다. 거울이 흐릿하고 손이 따끔거리며 고속도로에서 오래 달리면 멈춥니다. 하지만 스포츠 투어링의 효율성보다는 영혼을 위해 이 자전거를 구입한다면 이미 알고 계실 것입니다.

장점

단점

중고 구매자 리뷰

7.2/10
최적 대상
Urban riders wanting character over cutting-edge tech

"A flawed but charismatic bargain that rewards patient, mechanical buyers."

$3,500-$7,500 used

The Nightster is a proper Sportster with some attitude — blacked-out components, low stance, and that punchy 1200cc air-cooled twin that's genuinely fun to ride. It's not fast by modern standards, but it pulls hard through the mid-range and sounds absolutely savage with an aftermarket exhaust. The ergonomics suit shorter riders well, and it's light enough that filtering through traffic feels natural rather than terrifying. Used examples are plentiful and usually cheap because everyone modifies these things. That's a double-edged sword — you'll find some genuinely tasteful builds, but also a lot of questionable choppers with stretched frames and sketchy wiring. Inspect carefully. Known issues include vibration cracking the front isolator mounts, weak stock charging systems, and primary chain tensioners that wear out if previous owners skipped services. Budget for a fresh cam plate if the bike's done serious miles. At the right price it's one of the most characterful bikes you can buy for under five grand. Just go in with eyes open.
