Harley-Davidson has officially revealed the prices of its 2025 Nightster and Nightster Special models in India. Priced at INR 13.51 lakh and INR 14.29 lakh (ex-showroom), respectively, these two models serve as the entry point into Harley’s premium cruiser lineup.

Nightster Special
The Nightster series is Harley-Davidson’s take on blending modern muscle with classic American styling. Powered by the 975cc liquid-cooled Revolution Max V-Twin, both motorcycles deliver a solid 89 Nm of torque and 90 PS of peak power. It’s a rev-happy engine with plenty of punch across the mid-range—perfect for carving through urban traffic or stretching its legs on the highway.
Features and equipment
The Nightster gets a minimalist stance with bar-end mirrors, solo seat, and classic peanut-style tank. The Special variant steps it up with a TFT display, Bluetooth connectivity, cruise control, and USB charging. There’s also a pillion seat on the Special, making it more versatile.
Both bikes feature three riding modes – Road, Sport, and Rain – and get standard ABS, traction control, and drag-torque slip control. The 11.7-litre fuel tank is tucked under the seat, improving centre of gravity and handling feel.
Competitors
The Harley Nightster range is pitched against the Indian Scout Bobber, Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster, and the upcoming Royal Enfield Shotgun 650. While it doesn’t undercut the competition on price, Harley’s badge value, heritage, and aggressive styling still carry weight.
Where it stands
For Indian enthusiasts eyeing their first H-D, this motorcycle offers modern-day reliability in a retro silhouette. While the price tag is still steep compared to mainstream middleweights, the quality, finish, and overall brand cachet justify the premium—for those who want it.
