The latest addition to the Harley Sporster family is the HD XL 1200N Nightster, and while it features a sleeker, more updated version of classic Harley Davidson motorcycle looks, it's still great fun and more stable on turns than the older Harley Davidson motorcycle. On paper, the Nightster looks good, with air-cooled 1200CC engine boasting V-Twins and a top speed of 110 mph, and a price tag of under $10,000. It's designed to be a starter bike for the younger crowd, and is reportedly fun to ride at street-legal speeds and mechanically rugged enough to stand up to being ridden only occasionally. Plus, this lightweight Harley Davidson motorcycle is technically sophisticated, with a rubber mounted engine, an electronic fuel injection system (no carburetor). The baby of the Harley sportster family cranks right over at the touch of a button and purrs smoothly into life, even from a cold engine. Harley purists may have their feathers ruffled over the Nightster's looks, but it's a nimble and handsome addition to the Harley Davidson motorcycle family.
