Harley-Davidson's profilation of this bike
Massive power meets cutting-edge technology for a nimble ride that takes dark to pitch black. Pitch black and sinister as hell, the Night Rod® Special model is aggressively styled from the front end to the back. Engine, wheels, forks, triple clamps, swingarm—they´re all blacked out and thick with uncompromising, drag strip attitude.
