“First ride, I realized it was the first bike I didn’t have to fight with. The weight, the stance, the way it moves… It all just clicks.”
A lightweight build, torque-rich Revolution Max 975T, selectable ride modes, and built-in safety features give the 2026 Nightster razor-sharp control and blackout style to match. Add in LED lighting and vintage Harley cues, and you’ve got a bike that rides (and looks) locked in.

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.
A 688 mm 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.
At just 218 kg wet, with the fuel tank positioned under the seat for better balance, the Nightster is one of the lightest Harleys you can throw a leg over. And it feels like it, too.
Tank graphic, round air intake cover, medallion tank badge, and exposed dual rear shocks keep the Sportster lineage alive, giving the Nightster a profile that’s pure Harley from every angle.
Nothing hits Harley heritage like the XR750 tank graphic. This wet-slide tribute brings a smile to the storied enthusiasts and turns new congregants into believers. In Blood Orange with color-matched fenders, black Nightster Special wheels, and a chrome exhaust shield, this special edition 2026 Nightster carries its lineage with pride.
Blood Orange paint with color-matched fenders and a wet-slide tank graphic recalls the fire of Harley’s racing heritage while cutting a fresh line for today. Nostalgia, speed, and attitude all come wrapped in one unmistakable package.
A bright chrome heat shield contrasts perfectly with the black performance 2-into-1 pipes, catching light at every angle. A modern edge that amplifies the silhouette of the Nightster while nodding to classic H-D race design.
Black Nightster Special wheels tie the look together, carrying the kind of no-frills toughness born on dirt tracks and carried onto the street. It’s strong, simple, and true to the Nightster’s stripped-down aesthetic.
The 2026 Sport lineup rides on the Revolution™ Max platform with updated finishes, ride modes, advanced displays, and tech that keeps you focused more on the road and the joy of riding than on the controls. Watch the walkaround to learn about all the exciting things coming to the Sport lineup this year.
Harley-Davidson’s Rider Safety Enhancements is all about giving you that extra peace of mind when things get a little unpredictable. It’s a set of smart tech that steps in during tricky situations, helping the bike handle traction while you’re accelerating, braking, or slowing down. With the Cornering Rider Safety Enhancements, the bike even adjusts for cornering, keeping things smooth and steady without you having to think twice.
ABS is designed to prevent the wheels from locking under braking and helps the rider maintain control when braking in a straight-line, urgent situation.
The TCS is designed to keep the rear wheel from “spinning out” when the motorcycle is accelerating in a straight line and enhances rider confidence.
DSCS is designed to reduce excessive rear-wheel slip and help prevent rear-wheel lock under powertrain-induced deceleration, which typically occurs when the rider makes an abrupt downshift gear change or quickly reduces the throttle while on wet or slippery road surfaces.
