Thread: Harley Davidson cruiser

The most striking feature: the 1200 Nightster rolls on spoke, the Iron to 883 cubic strong cast wheels. And the air-cooled, 45-degree primitive V2 comes in different clothes: gray with polished valve covers on the Nightster, black for the Iron. Also, the belt cover is perforated and the painting of the 1200s differ from the Nightster even two-tone.


Regardless, the two sit with their side columns so casually on the street as James Dean against the wall. We simply climb on. You sit different. The Nightster has a wider handlebars and the seat is uncomfortable, because it has slightly less padding than the Iron counterpart. This difference is also reflected in the height: With 740 mm of the Iron-driver sits 20 millimeters higher than the Nightster pilot. Sausage, both are so deep and cool enough.




Are daintier turning maneuvers by the driver for people with short arms a little easier, they do not need to grab as much. The sound score wins the 1200s, but only with a little distance. Any wonder whom? More burnt air, compressed even slightly higher, making his way through tubes with identical diameters. The clutch is equally difficult for both models, petite little person with spaghetti forearms are agonizing over it.
