Well, in all the Harley literature when they said about the Nightster that it had the lowest seat height of any other Harley, what they really meant was that they just removed all the foam from the seat so you sit on the frame rails!

Learn to hate it or get a different seat.

I was at the dealership the other day while I was getting my recall fix done. They were unloading an 07 1200N and I thought to myself;"I'd bust my ***** on that scoot".

Sweet bike though. I have heard several great things about the bike. They should call it the Night Bob.
