Introducing the New Classic Don’t let the 483 lb. frame fool you. The 2026 Nightster Special is tuned to rip with a high-revving liquid-cooled 975T Revolution Max® motor, ABS, and full SHOWA suspension. Traction control, a blacked-out powertrain, and modern precision meet throwback attitude to redefine what a classic can be when it’s built for now.
Blacked-out powertrain. West Coast–style mini-fairing. Vintage tank lines over a load-bearing Revolution Max 975T motor. From the stance to the cast wheels, every detail balances throwback style with a modern, aggressive edge.
The Revolution® Max 975T motor is fully blacked-out, with contrasting matte and gloss finishes and newly non-highlighted fins, for a factory finish that looks as aggressive as it is.
A flat tank-to-fender line and peanut-shaped air cover pull from classic Sportster® DNA, topped with a ’70s-inspired tank graphic.
Born from West Coast club style, the headlight mini-fairing adds wind-cutting function to the Nightster® Special’s aggressive, “tough guy” silhouette, while full LED lighting keeps that stance lit and visible long after the sun’s down.
Standard pillion pad and footpegs let you bring someone along, or strip it back for a solo stance.
At 483 lbs (225 kg) with the tank under the seat, the Nightster Special stays planted yet agile, whether filtering through traffic or carving backroads.
A quick-revving Revolution Max 975T motor. Low weight and low center of gravity for effortless handling. SHOWA suspension, selectable ride modes, and a tuned two-into-one exhaust all come together for a ride that’s as responsive in the curves as it is confident on the straightaway.
