2026 Harley-Davidson® RH975S - Nightster® Special

2026 Harley-Davidson® Nightster® Special

Don’t let the 483 lb. frame fool you. The 2026 Nightster Special is tuned to rip with a high-revving liquid-cooled 975T Revolution Max® motor, ABS, and full SHOWA suspension. Traction control, a blacked-out powertrain, and modern precision meet throwback attitude to redefine what a classic can be when it’s built for now.

Features may include:

• Vintage-Inspired Styling

A flat tank-to-fender line and peanut-shaped air cover pull from classic Sportster® DNA, topped with a ’70s-inspired tank graphic.

• West Coast Mini-Fairing + LED Lighting

Born from West Coast club style, the headlight mini-fairing adds wind-cutting function to the Nightster® Special’s aggressive, “tough guy” silhouette, while full LED lighting keeps that stance lit and visible long after the sun’s down.

• Versatile Passenger-Ready Setup

Standard pillion pad and footpegs let you bring someone along, or strip it back for a solo stance.

• Two-Into-One Exhaust Built to Pull

One of the most efficient ways to get performance out of a V-Twin, the Nightster Special’s two-into-one system is tuned for smooth flow, strong acceleration, and a sharper, more aggressive exhaust note

• Full-Color 4” (102 mm) TFT Display Packed with Info

Glove-friendly, Bluetooth®-enabled display keeps navigation, bike data, and media right where you need them.

• Selectable Ride Modes + Safety Enhancements

Road, Rain, Sport, or two custom modes the Nightster Special adapts instantly to how and where you ride. ABS, traction control, drag-torque slip control, TPMS, and standard cruise control add confidence and comfort, whether you’re stretching the bike’s legs across an open highway or watching the sun drop behind the backroads.
