RE: 2-up riding on a nightster
NOT a good two person bike... Can it be done? .... yes.... With any degree of comfort for the passenger?.. no.... The Nightster is the coolest solo scoot around.... But the lack of travel in the rear suspension makes the "solo" very pronounced... It is the same with the other Sportster Low models (e.g. XL1200L, XL883L). The low bikes are not good two-up bikes... sorry

RE: Hi
Wow! Obviously HDK had the day offwith a little too much computer time and a credit card. Dude, you're giving me an inferiority complex (silicon, Sporty, silicon, Sporty… sorry the bike wins)!
A guy I work with had to put on a two up seat on his Nightster so his wife would let him buy it. She rode on the back ONCE and hated it. Granted I don't know these people very well, so Idon't know how "picky" they are on the comfort level. Buthedid sayit was not a two up bike, just wasn’t comfortable.
Plus the seat KILLED the look. I actually feel bad for the bike every time I see it.
