I bought a 2023 Nightster, and I love it.
I traded an old amd cantankerous DR650 and a nice 750 Street Rod in on this. The SR was starting to need some parts, and it was going to be a long time before I was able to get them. So I had two bikes, one which needed a belt and fork seals (which I couldn't get unless I waited) and another that I could get parts for, but I was constantly having to fix.
Now I have one nice bike I can actually ride. It's smooth, quiet, fast, and reasonably comfortable. I've never had traction control or ABS brakes before, that may take some getting used to. The bike is so effortless to ride. It's nimble, its fairly light for a cruiser. (and it's feather-weight compared to any other harley) The suspension soaks up the bumps, and I've never ridden anything that felt so firmly planted on the road. It has a 975cc engine that sounds nothing like a "typical harley", but it still sounds good. Here's hoping I don't have the only one left four years from now, like what happened to my Street Rod.
I'd never heard of that so I looked it up
First bullet points -
FORWARD RIDING POSITION
Um, as opposed to what? ๐
MID MOUNT FOOT CONTROL
Phew, glad you didn't put them on the back wheel anyway
RIDER SAFETY ENHANCEMENTS AVAILABLE
Yes, yes I'd like brakes please ๐
They must've been struggling for desirable features then!
As opposed to a leaned-back or straight up riding position
"Mid controls" instead of forward controls
Saftey stuff includes traction control, abs, and riding modes
Sounds like you haven't ever seen a motorcycke except in pictures? Dunno why you're laughing at your own ignorance, but have fun I guess.
