The dark recesses of the Sportster® soul are still intact. Check out the old school fork gaiters. The drilled metal pieces. The rear fender is chopped and clean, thanks to new stop-turn tail lights and a side-mount license plate. A low suspension puts the seat at just over 25 inches, hard as the muscle behind it, the Nightster™ gets the 1,200-cubic-centimeters Evolution V-Twin engine. Rubber-mounted in the narrow, nimble Sportster® frame and finished with shades of dark. In other words, it’ll put the edge back on a blade.

When your mother made you finish everything on your plate, she was preparing you for bigger things. Open wide. The Ultra Classic® is the touring smorgasbord. Spacious hardbags. Comfort-stitched seat with wraparound passenger backrest. Electronic passenger controls. Redesigned two-position King Tour-Pak® for more passenger room. Hope you're still hungry. There's more. Vented fairing lowers to keep legs cool on hot days. Cruise control. CB intercom. A Harman/Kardon® Advanced Audio System that clearly belts out the tunes through four speakers or headset. And for the main course: six gears of Milwaukee-brewed, 96-cubic-inch V-Twin. Make your mother proud.
