Default Nightster dimensions
Does anyone know the extreme width of a standard nightster, I cant find this info on the HD web site.
My reason for the question is that I need to get a nightster down a narrow alley way.

Thanks in advanced for your time.

I think if you can walk down the alley way and can get a Nightster down it. The mirrors would be the widest part. Just take a yard stick to your stealer and measure, you might get funny looks though. Maybe someone on the forum here will measure theirs for ya.

Widest spread is 36 1/2" from the tips of the brake and clutch levers.
