- How much power does the 2022 Harley-Davidson Nightster produce? We place the Revolution Max 975 V-twin on the Cycle World dyno.
The 2022 Harley-Davidson Nightster is The Motor Company’s first application to utilize the all-new Revolution Max 975T liquid-cooled 60-degree V-twin. The engine was originally teased in the Bronx streetfighter concept, which was later scrapped. However, this “midsize” Revolution Max-powered Sportster is likely the first of several models to utilize the “midsize” Revolution Max powerplant
Cycle World Technical Editor Kevin Cameron dove into the Revolution Max 975T and Revolution Max 1250T engine platforms here, while our first ride review of the Nightster covers more technical details.
Following our first ride review of the 2022 Harley-Davidson Nightster, we placed it on the Cycle World Dynojet 250i dynamometer, recording horsepower and torque measurements. The Revolution Max 975 produced 78.51 hp at 7,550 rpm and 62.44 pound-feet of torque at 5,190 at the rear wheel. As noted in our review, the torque delivery isn’t immediate as seen in H-D’s air-cooled V-twin, with a significant dip between 3,000 and 4,000 rpm and only crossing the 60 pound-feet threshold just before 5,000 rpm. It’s quick revving too, hitting its 8,500 rpm redline shortly after peak power.
As mentioned, the Nightster is the first H-D model to be equipped with the Revolution Max 975T. Seeing what The Motor Company has done with the Revolution Max 1250T in the very different Pan America 1250 and Sportster S models, it will be interesting to see how the tune of the 975T is applied to future models.

Yeah... for the price it just really ought to come with a whole lot more of everything.
I felt the same until I realized it is less than a scout. If I had to choose between the two (which I don't, but if I did) I'd take this. I've ridden both. The nightster is way more fun. And the scout sells, so I think this might as well.
@@devonnobles1083 lol. Silly.
It would've came with more if it were the Bronx.
Why they scrapped it in place of the Nightster still confuses the all mighty hell out of me. But see has how this platform of the Revo Max will grow some pubes soon, maybe then it'll be time for the Bronx to shine.
Harley has some ways to go if they want to stay afloat with other types of customers. Sure they've tried with different Scrambler/Muscle/Cruiser models, but the demographic has shifted alot.
Not everyone is in the market for a hefty cruiser, saddle bags the size of baby strollers, and a price tag to even make Mark Cuban grit his teeth.
Decent power for class I guess, good looking bike overall just wish HD would have designed the clutch side of engine to the standards of the throttle side as far as looks go.
Funny thing is, all the Revo Max platform bikes have that same Aesthetic issue.
Great vid
"Look Ma, I'm on the TV!!!" 😁
That curve is bonkers...look at that dip at 4k. Rear suspension looks like it has more travel though. It's big brother has what like 2 inches or some shit?
Emissions bull I bet. Some cams and head work will be fun on these engines. I can't wait for the aftermarket to catch up
Top speed?
Man this bike needs the same engine as the sportster s
The difference between the scout and the Nightster is like 7.65 BHP and 2.37 TQ
But the Nightster is significantly lighter.
@stevem4783 481lbs wet. 😩
Didn’t it flash up 81hp around 00:59 in the power graph for a second ?
I saw that too
They smooth out all of the peaks or "noise" to relay a more accurate number.
Don’t think that’s noise.
Torque also reached more than 63, but is not reflected in the results!
This should have the pan america motor on it with 150 hp
Thats alot of money for a town bike.
Description says 8,500 rpm redline, but most websites say 9,500. Which is correct?
9500. This dyno run was’nt done properly. It produces a bit more than those results
That Rwdline is for other other modes, if I recall particularly Road Mode.
In Sport Mode, Rwdlime is definitely in the ballpark of 9K RPM.
Yah to be fair, peak power is going to come before redline anyway, but still would be nice to have proper descriptions in place.
@@thefuturetom ahh
I tested Road mode out today, it definitely cuts out somewhere in the 8000s whereas sport mode did not cut out till 9500.
Wow new indian ftr just slapped these bikes in the face!
I guessed 82 hp
Meh.. I love sportsters. I'm just not impressed with the new ones. Especially not for the price.
@Thomas B I swear, if I’d ever buy a Harley, I would buy it pre owned from an individual not from any dealership
@@sushi_edits225 yep that’s how you do it. Then upgrade her little by little.
I love my sporty, and honestly a brand new rubbermount was like wnat, $4000 less? I'm not sure how this is a let down but a 67hp 1200cc with no tech and shitty brakes is the end all be all of Sportsters LOL
Still less than my 25 yr old buell S3 Thunderbolt at 87hp and 75 lbs tq.
that bike sold for $12k in 1997 which is about $23k today
@@reoo6806freaking wild.
Indian Scout all day long! No to Harley!
I'll keep my Triumph Speedmaster 1200 over both of those, although I'd love Chief DH.
I saw reviews saying this had 90hp...wow, they were way off. And this is suppose to be Harleys entry-level-cheapest model at 13grand(even though people are paying 15-16 out the door)...what a mess
The performance output is reduced in the other 2 modes, but the 3rd..Sport Mode, yeah the figures on the Harley website definitely add up.
90HP at the crank.....tell us you don't have a clue how horsepower is measured again😂 Nobody publishes their WHP.
Get a Duke 890R, better everything, lighter weight and a lot more power, for $1k less that a base Nightster.
Totally different bikes.
Will never ever give KTM my money again. Had to get a lawyer involved to get a shitty, un-diagnosable 690 lemoned. Fuck them and their spaghetti electronics. Also, apples and oranges
@@raoulduke3770 Not as different as you’d think, after riding both, the Nightster is a heavier HD version of a sport naked.
@@freebehindbars8654 their design missions are different. The sportster wasn’t designed for the same purpose as the ktm. Because they share some similar attributes doesn’t mean they were designed for the same thing. The HD is a power cruiser, the KTM a performance naked bike.
A middle weight naked bike that starts over $13 should have an inverted fork, top shelf brakes, enough hp to compete with the other manufacturers that provide all the above for thousands less. I enjoyed the Nightster, just hard to justify the cost when compared. You can get a lot of bike in that $13-14k range.
wow ! they managed to get 78.5 hp from a high compression 1 liter engine 😄
It's a small displacement Vtwin boss....
@@jonnymac8925 Ducati 937cc 90° Vtwin 111hp. KTM Duke 947cc 75° Ptwin 121hp. Harley 975cc 60° Vtwin 91hp.
The biggest rip-offs in American history!
LOL That's quite the claim. What makes you say that?
The harley rebel. Why in the world would they make the thing so damn ugly?
Don't like the looks, sound or price of this bike. Especially the price. Hard pass. Do better HD!
Yup agree
