’08 XL1200N Harley Davidson Nightster Short Shots

by admin on 2011/03/10

Nightster with a few mods. 'Stage 1' with Vance and Hines black Short Shots, Vance and Hines Fuelpak, and Screamin Eagle air cleaner. Black Progressive 412 rear shocks. Mustang Vintage Solo seat. The 'stage 1' with the new pipes really woke the bike up. It *feels* like a Harley now. The sound is incredible. It's quite a bit quicker too. The combination of the 412's and seat have made an incredible improvement to the ride. I think I can actually ride for more than an hour without needing to stop and stretch now. I plan on getting a detachable rear rack and roll bag for it still and maybe a new grips and pegs set, but I'm not planning much more in the way of modifications. A few accent pieces here and there is all I can foresee. No ape hangers or forward controls for me. I like it like it is.

@Fastfwd01 Would that even be bad for a bike anyway?

Is the performance between a Nightster and an Iron 883 like night and day?

@Fastfwd01 So if I’m 6’1 I should still be alright on it? I’m just worried about being too big for the bike. I was looking into the Iron 883 but I’m not sure on that either.

@Fastfwd01 yea my buddy has a 10′ fat bob … Im only 5’9 … 155lbs so its a perfect fit for me right now

Nice bike. Are these Shortshots crazy loud with baffles?

Fastfwd01 March 11, 2011 at 12:25 am

@msufan8854 check my other videos…… I traded for an ’09 Street Bob and I LOVE it! The Nightster was fun, but the Street Bob has a bit more legs for the highway…..

msufan8854 March 11, 2011 at 1:03 am

@Fastfwd01 what did u get after you traded it in ?

Fastfwd01 March 11, 2011 at 1:22 am

@NubsWithGuns Don’t own it anymore……..traded in after 1 year and 10,000 miles – like new.

FYI, I had just been on a afternoon ride – so much for your uninformed input………

NubsWithGuns March 11, 2011 at 2:19 am

well that bike wont last long the way you just start it up and start rompin on the throttle right away

yeah this bike is a chicks bike . IS A PUSSY MAGNET THAT IS WHAT THE SPORSTERS ARE. any bike that is good enough for evel knievel is good enough for me .

was wondering how the fuelpak is working out for you. Have the same bike and about to add VH shorts, however after doing tons of research, it seems that people differ in regards to its quality. Power Commanders, SERT and other mods are an option. Thundermax EFI unit seems to make the most sense, but does cost 800 dollars. Your thought?

Can anyone tell me, If I install short shots to my nightster but leave the stock air filter, do I have to remap the the bike? Please Help!
