  • the Nightster is powered by the new Revolution Max 975T engine.

The 2022 Nightster runs on the all-new Revolution Max 975T drivetrain and features a host of electronic rider aids.

Optimized for performance while maintaining the Sportster DNA, the new Nightster is fitted with a lightweight chassis that carries a powerful engine tuned for strong mid-range performance making it the perfect cruiser for urban and highway riding.
At the heart of the frame sits a 60-degree V-Twin Revolution Max 975T with liquid-cooled engine capable of pumping 90hp @ 7,500rpm and 95Nm @ 5,750rpm.
Despite the classic silhouette, the Nightster is equipped with modern safety equipment including Harley’s Rider Safety Enhancement, including ABS, rear-wheel control and three riding modes; Road, Sport and Rain.

The Nightster is fitted with (non-adjustable) Showa Dual Bending Valve front forks, preload-adjustable twin shock absorbers, single front and rear disc with axially mounted 4-pot callipers.

Available in Vivid Black, Gunship Grey and Redline Red, the 2022 Nightster is available for a recommended selling price of RM93,900.

Harley-Davidson julung kalinya memperkenalkan motosikal ‘entry-level’ dengan sistem penyejuk air selepas kali terakhir melakukannya pada 65 tahun dulu.

Mengembalikan semula nama Nightster, model baharu itu meneruskan DNA Harley-Davidson dengan penampilan klasik namun dilengkapi dengan beberapa ciri elektronik terkini.

Namun, tumpuan utama terarah kepada bahagian enjin, yang menempatkan platform 975cc serba baharu yang dibangunkan daripada platform Revolution Max 1250 yang menggerakan Pan America.

Harley-Davidson mendakwa enjin V-Twin 60-darjah dengan sistem penyejuk air itu mampu menjana 88.5hp pada 7,500rpm dan 95Nm pada 5,000rpm.

Bagaimanapun, ketika Revolution Max 1250 mengguna pakai ‘variable valve timing’ pada kedua-dua inlet dan injap ekzos, enjin 975cc terbaru ini hanya menampilkan VVT pada bahagian ‘inlet cam’ sahaja.

Harley juga hanya menerapkan satu ‘sparkplug’ bagi setiap silinder berbanding dua ‘sparkplug’ pada enjin 1250.

Antara ciri lain yang terdapat pada Harley-Davidson Nighster 2022 adalah seperti berikut:

  • tangki 11.7L
  • berat 221kg
  • tiga mod menunggang (Road/Sport/Rain)
  • ABS
  • Traction Control
  • Drag-Torque Slip Control System
  • fork depan 41mm Showa Dual Bending Valve
  • penyerap hentakan belakang berkembar Showa
  • lampu LED penuh
  • paparan LCD dan analog

Teaser video indicates a new Harley-Davidson Sportster variant will debut soon, rumoured to be a smaller capacity cruiser offshoot.

Harley-Davidson is set to kick off the new year with an all-new motorcycle.

The American motorcycle company has teased that there is something new set to be unleashed on the 26 January.

The teaser only features a date and a glimpse of what looks like a silhouette from a tank including the tagline ‘Further, Faster’.

While details remain scarce at this point, there is no harm in trying to deduct what the new motorcycle could be.

Firstly, looking at how aggressive Harley-Davidson is with the new Revolution Max 1250 engine available on the Sportster S and Pan America, the upcoming model could feature the same powerplant.

The tagline ‘Further, Faster’ could also refer to a more powerful version of the two.

However, considering 150hp and 127Nm is more than enough for the Pan America 1250, it’s only logical that the teaser could refer to a more powerful Sportster S.

Firstly, the Sportster S makes 121hp @ 7,500rpm and 127Nm, which means it has room to be injected with extra ponies.

Secondly, with just an 11.8L tank capacity, the Sportster S definitely needs a bigger tank to allow riders to go the extra mile.

Ironically, since the ‘S’ refers to ‘Sport’, the upcoming model could be a touring-oriented Sportster.

Nevertheless, the teaser could mean an entirely different model altogether thus it’ll be best to just wait and see what’s in store from Harley-Davidson.

Just months after successfully unveiling the all-new Pan America, Harley-Davidson plans to introduce another new model.

The new model will be launch on July 13 as the next in line to be powered by the all-new Revolution Max engine.

*Harley Davidson Pan America 1250

According to Harley’s CEO, Jochen Zeitz, while the Pan America is an ADV behemoth, the new model will be on the sportier side.

“Following the successful launch of our first adventure touring motorcycle, the Pan America, we are excited to reveal another all-new motorcycle, built on the Revolution Max platform in the sports segment, showcasing unmatched Harley-Davidson technology, performance and style.”

There is no confirmation on how the new model will look, but we can assume it will portray the company’s DNA of making it a “proper” Harley-Davidson.
