Harley-Davidson Night Rod Special reviews

This is my fourth Harley-Davidson. I have owned a 2007 Road King CVO, then the 2021 Road Glide Special (Red/Black), next was the 2016 Heritage/Softtail, and finally, my fourth Harley, the 2021 Street Glide Special, Limited Edition Artic Blast Custom Paint, Number 325 of 500. This bike has been Dyno tuned, with upgraded Slimline Dual head pipes paired with Rinehart slip-ons equipped with DBX performance baffles...long story short, this bike is FAST! This bike also has a very smooth ride and great handling, and I have maintained all service records and only serviced at Harley-Davidson. A removable tour pack has been added, including waterproof speakers in the saddle bags. Lots of upgrades to say the least! You will absolutely enjoy riding this bike! Show less

The VROD started the REVOLUTION. The engine now in the Pan American. Sportster S and others. This engine performs, with power and linear torque that always makes you smite. With a set of Avon's, it almost flickable. Solid suspension and excellent breaks, make this the best Harley ever produced IMHO. Show less

Great bikes,they have plenty power,brakes are very good and the suspension works very good as well.-The water cooling and fuel injection is a welcome change also to help with those 80 degree days and better fuel mileage.- Show less

This is a fun bike with a lot of power and a unique appearance. I’ve had friends call my bike beautiful. At a 120 mph and pulling, you’ll start wondering if the wind will blow one of your legs sticking out in front off the peg. Water cold, single oil sump, 1130cc eye turning affordable crotch rocket. saddlebags will defile it And range of about 130 miles. The aluminum rims and forks put badly. Show less

I have owned this bike for over 14 years and never had any problem at all, I have owned a few Harleys and the Night Train has been the best, the most reliable machine I have ever owned, it has been all over and seen the country for years and when it comes down to it I would get on it before any other, dependable reliable and I have had more compliments on this bike everywhere I go, it’s a true Harley Davidson.

I purchased a 2021 Street Glide that I am disappointed with. It has less than a thousand miles and already the engie and ABS light have come on. It jackrabbits when shifting from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd. I had it checked out and was told that there was nothing wrong with it. Now two weeks later, the engie light and ABS light are on. This is the third new harley that I've purchased and every one of them have broken down with less than a thousand miles on them. This will be my last harley! Show less

My first Harley Davidson from transitioning from sports bike riding for the last 20 years. Love the ride this Harley provides and the quality. Still getting used to the ride but after making some specific modifications and changing some things around, I am getting it to where I want it. I have become a big Harley fan just in a matter of months. The camaraderie between the Harley base is like none other. Looking forward to some long rides and creating memories. Show less

After years of riding Japanese sports-tourers, I felt like a change and bought a Sportster 1200. Very enjoyable, but instantly had me wishing I had held out for a Big Twin. After much research, I decided that a Softail Night Train was the way to go. I am not ashamed to admit that the looks of the thing had much to do with the choice. I also wanted the simplicity, sound and character 1340 EVO engine, and like to do my own maintenance. For three years now, I have owned a 1999 'bike, and I could not be happier. Like all relationships, everything is not perfect. The 'bike is pretty slow, the brakes are adequate and the HD suspension (progressive shocks and fork springs are on my Christmas list) is just about acceptable, BUT.... After 21 years, the 'bike is showing few signs of age, a testament to the impressive original build quality. The feel of this bike, the way it feeds back to you on any ride, and the easy beat of the low tech EVO engine is a triumph of simplicity over technology. The riding position reminds you that you are there for the pleasure of the experience, and along with those incredible looks, well, I cannot imagine changing the bike anytime soon. If you want a motorcycle with an almost "vintage", visceral appeal that has you glancing back over your shoulder each time you have to walk away from it, then this is the sort of thing you need in your life. Newer Harleys are faster, smoother and far more complex, but for this very satisfied owner, less is definitely more. Be safe out there. Show less

Purchased a 2014 Street Glide Special with low miles from a private seller. The transaction was done through Harley's Rider to Rider, program, which was good for me as a buyer. The bike was completely stock. I was upgrading from a 2002 Electra Glide, so the tech on this bike is a significant upgrade. Everything is easy to figure out, though, and after a couple of day rides I'm completely comfortable on it. It is denim black, which I love and is easy to clean. Easy every day rider, although after three hours or so the stock seat gets uncomfortable. That will be my first upgrade. Show less
