HARLEY-DAVIDSONNight Rod Special 2015 - 2016

　　In 2015, Harley-Davidson released the Night Rod Special, a custom cruiser motorcycle based on the standard Night Rod. The bike was part of the VRSC series and Harley-Davidson's Dark Custom series.

　　The Night Rod Special was first released in 2007 and marketed as a factory-made custom machine that featured a 240 mm wide rear tire, and most components were usually chrome and came in a black finish. Also, the wheels were replaced by slotted black disc units with dark orange pinstripes.

　　In 2008, the Revolution engine received a more significant displacement, from 1,130cc to 1,247cc, delivering more power and torque. Also, the bike received a slipper clutch and an Anti-Lock Braking System as an option.

　　In 2015, the American manufacturer launched the Harley-Davidson Night Rod Special, a cruiser machine with a darkened appearance and very few chromed and polished accents.

　　The bike was powered by the renowned 1,247cc four-stroke V-twin liquid-cooled Revolution engine, backed up by a fuel injection system. The bike boasted 125 hp with a maximum peak force at 8,250 rpm and 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.

　　The triple-disc Brembo braking system included four-piston calipers with two 300 mm discs on the front wheel and a four-piston caliper with a 300 mm disc on the rear wheel, offering excellent stopping power.

　　In 2015, when it was released, the 2015 Harley-Davidson Night Rod Special was for sale with an MSRP of $16,549. In 2023 (at the time of writing), the bike was for sale with an average retail price of $9,000.
