VEHICLE DESCRIPTION

When I first climbed into the saddle of the Nightster, the riding position felt a little strange – the pegs are close enough to the rider that your body position feels like you’re sitting in a chair at your dinner table, with you knees bent at a 90 degree angle, thighs paralell to the ground and shins perpendicular to it. The wide bars are also situated close to the rider, with your hands spread wide and your arms nearly parallels to the ground . Most of your body weight rests on the low (25.3?) single seat, and the surprise came from not being as stretched-out as most cruisers, which have your legs and arms reaching WAY forward for the bars and pegs – folding you up into the classic ‘clamshell’ riding position
