The 2012 MY Harley Davidson XL1200N Nightster is a powerful, bobber-like cruiser, designed for riders who prefer an aggressive, blacked-out look, on their minimalist machine. It comes standard with lace-spoked wheels, a drag-style handlebar, a classic, peanut-shaped, hand-finished fuel tank, mid-mounted controls, a chopped rear fender with black supports, a chopped front fender with black brackets, black fork sliders and gaiters, an one-up seat, black hand and foot controls, a side-mounted licence plate and a chromed exhaust with slash-cut mufflers.
At its heart lies an air-cooled, 1202cc, Evolution engine mated to a five-speed manual transmission, and can produce 107 Nm of torque at 4000 rpm.
