The 2026 Harley-Davidson® Nightster® Special in Blood Orange is a nimble, modern evolution of the Sportster lineage, designed for agile urban riding. It is powered by the liquid-cooled Revolution® Max 975T engine, delivering 90 HP and 70 ft-lb of torque with a powerband tuned for strong low-to-mid-range acceleration. Key features include its distinctive Blood Orange finish, a passenger pillion and pegs as standard, and a 4-inch round TFT display with Bluetooth navigation. Its lightweight chassis—utilizing the engine as a structural member—paired with a low center of gravity from the under-seat fuel tank, ensures easy handling and high-speed stability for riders of all skill levels
