A friend of mine bought one and I got to ride it home 40 miles from the dealer. He didn't have his mc endorsement yet. It put a smile on my face. I didn't really do much since it wasn't broke in. I haven't ridden it since, but my friend absolutely loves it! It's his first bike.

Ride 'em a few times a week at work. Not a bad bike at all, just a little small for me personally. I have some friends that own Nightsters they mostly have good things to say about them.

Just turned 1,300 miles on mine today. Loving EVERY minute of it!
A very fun ride - fast and raw. I call it my time machine.

Yep have one, bought it for the wife budecided to wait for the rest of kids to leave house til she rides regularly (If I get killed she is rich and can find a pool boy, if she gets killed I am screwed). Just put forward controls on it, will get a new seat and mini apes for it soon. Fun bike, kinda makes my RKC 103 feel slow. Around town fun any longer will hurt the butt.

I ride my wifes nightster around town all the time. It is a little small for me but it is definately a fun ride. it is light and nimble you can flick it around like a dirt bike all day long. On the other hand when I get back on my night train I can definately tell the difference in ride quality. It sounds like it would fit the bill for what you want to use it for, as it is the same thing I do with it.

If I had more money and garage space I'd get one.

My wife had one, she totalled it.&nbsp\\; I rode it to the dealer once for a recall.&nbsp\\; When I got there, the service manager asked how I liked it.&nbsp\\; My response, "If it were mine I would leave it to be sold on consignment and walk home."&nbsp\\; It had plenty of power, but road like crap.
