I ride a 2023 nightster . It’s cool to see somebody doing something with this bike. I have nearly 10,000 miles I’ve put on the bike since new. the bike gets beat on daily and so far so good
I have a 23 nightster, salesman that sold me my bike from desert wind told me to look up your videos, that thing is pretty sweet. I ripped the baffles and insulation out of my exhaust and put it back on. My bike was also done up to get put on the showroom floor, it has Harleys Adversary trim package on it with the velocity stack, but my bike is absolutely insane! I am a bigger guy but I raced a tesla, ninja 636 and several other pretty quick vehicles and I just leave em. I want to do more mods to my bike so really appreciate your videos!!
Did you gut the cat or just mufflers? Any check engine light? I just bought one and need to do an exhaust asap! Also need to do something with the bars, hopefully a set of z bars is what I’m thinking.
As a owner of a 2024 Nightster I appreciate what y'all are doing here. The exhaust market for these bikes is limited. Your major competition is S&S and TBR. I personally think the Nightster community will eat up this slip on if the price is comparable to the S&S.
That sound would get you straight to jail in Europe. Fortunately, this bike is faster than police cars. Thanks for this awesome video. A big hug from Spain 🇪🇸
Just wait! a more open pipe on decel is absolutely brutal! These things snarl, pop and rev like a race car. I'm glad someone is finally showcasing a bike that everyone has been sleeping on.
I wasn't even a harley fan until I test ride a 24 nightster as I was comparing 2 diff bikes. We'll, the nightster is now sitting in my garage and I never tested the other bike. It's a blast to ride
I think it’s amazing that Krusi is building entry-level bikes like this for women. A lot of us have nieces and daughters who would love to commute to class or Pilates. Doing a bike like this, especially designed for petite women is perfect, given the ride height and ride ability. Just fast enough to make it to yoga class on time but cool enough to ride along side the bicycle lane and get a thumbs up from cyclists. Way to go guys, doing one for the ladies 👏 👏 💃 🧘♀️
Love the sound of your bike..first thing ive heard that actually sounds good...i have a 2023 nightster, definitely interested in your exhaust..your videos are cool and teaching me as well..ty bro
I work at a Harley dealer (in sales). After your first vid about the Nightster I decided to take one out for a rip and I have to agree with EVERYTHING. People are sleeping on these bikes! They are a fucking riot to rip on! I've converted a few guys already. One of the other guys in sales is a huge fan of the Low Rider S and he too thinks the Nightster is really impressive. Even in stock form they sound pretty good ripping through the gears under load. Above 4k or so they just SING...
I absolutely absolutely love them. I rode mine all weekend in California with this exhaust and is the nastiest sounding thing in the best riding motorcycle I’ve ever ever been on.
@@kruesioriginalsare you running the stock shocks? There are a couple used bikes local to me for sale for around 9K. They are 22 and 23 models without the tech, so I’m hesitant. Would rather have the special model with the nice gauge. Yours sounds crazy, so it has me thinking about one!
I just started working back at a harley dealership again and the techs all say the same thing, ride it above 4k and it will completely change your mind. I think i know what im doing at work tomorrow
I’ve done a few pan America motor swaps because of cam chain tensioners on the front head. They loose their oil when they sit because of the design of them. Pretty easy swp
I actually have the original 2022 Nightster 975T (for Torque). When this bike came out I was in the market for a new Harley and rode everything. IMO this blew everything at the dealership away. 2 years later and I'm still in love. As the transmission has gotten older it's gotten a little cranky, but if you know how to shift it, it still shifts really well. I've had some fun trying to work everything out since the service pack ran out, but now we're getting along fine. Great to see the Kruesi team getting stuck into it. Looking forward to seeing the exhaust being available.
I've one of the original '22 Nightster and haven't changed the exhaust yet, my only complaint on this bike and the tank size. If you have one which can slip-on with cat in place, that would be cool... Love the sound of it...
Harley should give you a commission for all the nightster sales they will be getting. I ride a FXLRST, but I wouldn’t mind a nightster. Love your show!
I'm so excited for this build. I used to have an indian scout and i miss that liquid cooled engine. Sounded good too. I might be adding a nightster to the stable.
The stock heat shield over that exhaust actually looks pretty good! Great job Kruesi! Keep up the great work with this build. Sounds bad ass too. In AZ I’m going take up that offer to stop by for a sound check 😉
If you like this new Nightster, you should consider picking up a Victory Octane. Basically was/is the Victory version of the Nightster but came out 8 years ago right before Victory was no more. My son has one. None of the tuning electronics you have to figure out how to get around on this Harley. Same type of water cooled, higher rev engine. And it is a ripper. My son's made right at 100 hp to the wheel stock. You guys could go absolutely nuts with one. Great platform.
Awesome videos!! Lovin my nightster! Hey, can you do a video on how to properly adjust the clutch on this bike? I know there are 2 spots, I can’t find the information anywhere.
I have a nightster 2023 R975. Do you have the exhaust in production yet? I looked on your official store and it wasn’t for sale. Looks great man. I love to buy it. You do great work to see it on there.!
I love this bike. It's like Harley-Davidson threw a Dyna Low Rider, a VRSC Night Rod and an Iron 883 in a blender and all the best bits floated to the top, ready to rock! ABSOLUTELY do a cat-back slip-on, Ohio isn't THAT restrictive but there's a few pass-through cities that live off those muffler tickets... As far as suspension, I wonder if any Moto Guzzi V7 parts would fit...
Do they make this one for the Panama? Or if this one would work I bet I think I’m gonna take this one off and give it away when I do wheelies. It hits me in the knee.
I see it goes legend on it ? How’s the ride with stock shocks and a bigger guy? I’m pretty built at 5’10 /210lbs, already own a heavily modified twin cam RK but looking for something nimble to just zoom around and they my wife can also ride here and there
TIG weld: I don't really like that bead profile... Ballpeen hammer: BAAAMM, say less fam! All in all you guys rule, this might be the underated GOAT in the Harley Davidson lineup!
"For all of your Nightster dirt biking rides" I have a 23 nightster, and I keep thinking about doing a mutant sportster build, some longer shocks and forks along with some knobby tires. I think the gas tank would be vulnerable though.
Jenius tip of the day. Get a Harley Pan Amercia Header to build the custom exhaust! Its got a more traditional Harley 2 into 1 look and should fit because it's the same motor. BTW Dope Build so far! I'm diggin the Nightster, liquid cooled is the future.
I'm in SoCal and have a '22 Nightster. I'm in Phoenix every once in awhile. Would be stoked if you could make a license plate relocator to under the rear fender. Not too much to ask!!
This bike and the buell super cruiser looks like a hell of a good time, I got a pan am in my garage as well as an m8 and those revmax motors are sick af with a pipe on them.
How come yours do not have the third O2 sensor? I removed my stock slip on too and replaced it with the specter performance slip on. But i didn’t cut the catalytic and it’s loud already, so im certain that sounds so loud right now. Im staying tuned all the way from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Is there a chance we can hear the exhaust you create after it’s put into production and has a cat inside of it thanks. Much appreciated. Is there a big difference in sound is what I wonder thanks again.
I foresee sales increasing because of these videos. My neighbor bought one and he let me ride it. He has a S&S slip on, and it sounds mean. This is a good direction for HD. The bike absolutely rips.
Man can we get like an hour and a half video. Can’t get enough of this build
You’ve done more to promote those new nightsters in one vid than Harley has done in 3 years
I fkn want one now
That’s a fact, I didn’t even know they existed until I found one

As a owner of a 2024 Nightster I appreciate what y'all are doing here.
The exhaust market for these bikes is limited.
Your major competition is S&S and TBR.
I personally think the Nightster community will eat up this slip on if the price is comparable to the S&S.
I haven’t looked at their price, but I’m guessing we can come in a little underneath
Also freedom performance, fahrunn. Jekyl and Hyde. I’m really digging rowdy.
@@highonlife44x
Yes, those are some also but, they are not nearly as popular and or issues and or in another country and or too expensive.
That nightser (dyna) IS A RIPPER ! After seeing you shred on it makes me want one as a second bike ! 💯
Me too 👍
🤮 Indian scout over that junk anyday.
@@jasonp1177 i mean thats a wierd coming out but hey all the best mate!
Scouts aren't NEARLY as fun to ride.
After a few beers everything be looking cute
Really glad to see real aftermarket parts for the Nightster!
Sshhh..it's a honey hole...
That sound would get you straight to jail in Europe. Fortunately, this bike is faster than police cars. Thanks for this awesome video. A big hug from Spain 🇪🇸
So glad the Pan America has kept this engine in the forefront. This is the future for HD. A Nightster and a PA would make for a sick garage.
Just wait! a more open pipe on decel is absolutely brutal! These things snarl, pop and rev like a race car.
I'm glad someone is finally showcasing a bike that everyone has been sleeping on.
I wasnt a fan of these new bikes until i saw this and the potential within it. Got me stoked!!
@@jonahhernandez6610 same here

Steve at Stealth did you dirty with the RYAN PIPE!
😂😂
atleast trent wont steal this one lol
Dude when i saw the Ryan i died😂. Totally something steve would do LOL ask and you shall receive

This bike is going to be so badass. Only build on UA-cam I'm interested in.

I own a 24 nightster special in denim black. Stoked about the parts you’re making. What’s an eTA on the slip on?
Just a random thank you for doing a series on the Nightster - I love mine and hate that it gets no love
SICK Exhaust!
Thank you
Can't wait for the slip on release!
Awesome stuff!!! Making a Nightster cool, love the vision, thanks!
Glad you like it!
Love the ppeppe or whatever you said, but the no guard on the grinder….hell yea!!!! Sounds awesome.
1.6k likes in less than 24hours. The boys done got on the thrashin vlog level!
Tweakers are losing their minds watching him toss that catalytic converter in the trash.
😂😂
haha😂😂
Some high quality Kruesi content tonight friends.
Keep it up👊
Thank you very much
First time watching pretty badass
Thank you and welcome
BEST SOUND I EVER HEARD
That beast is nasty sounding. Nice mod. Can’t wait to see the finished bike
I have a '22 & love it. Please make a black slip on as well. I like the one you are using on yours but i am trying to black out as much as i can lol
That Frankenpipe turned out sick!
Damn Ryan you’re definitely an old skool craftsman! Looking great!
awesome bike! question, can i use my old v&h big radius 2-2pipe and just weld a 2-1 adapter on? (no o2 sensors)
Big G'day Team Kruesi from Down Under 🇦🇺
Love ya work Boyz
May all your days be Harley days
Safe travels 🙏♥️💛🐾🐾🇦🇺
The stock heat shield over that exhaust actually looks pretty good! Great job Kruesi! Keep up the great work with this build. Sounds bad ass too. In AZ I’m going take up that offer to stop by for a sound check 😉
Do it!!
You are a master craftsman for sure.👍👍👍
Kruesi and his sound effects I fuckin love it 😂
FAVORITE CHANNEL %100
🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
wow. I want a nightster now. amazing work.
I caught the Spaceballs reference! 😂😂😂
Hell yes
I’m glad you have ppl liking the bike I got it wasn’t as popular until you bought it 😂

I wish i lived in Arizona. Your skills are dope. I got a 1983 shovelhead i know u can turn it to a master piece
I love this bike. It's like Harley-Davidson threw a Dyna Low Rider, a VRSC Night Rod and an Iron 883 in a blender and all the best bits floated to the top, ready to rock!

I want to add that style air cleaner to my pan am I think it would look badass

Love everything about this! 🤘
I've never wanted an EFI bike (except the XR1200) .... but between the Buell SC and Nightster.... I'm kinda interested...
Dang! I’m so stoked for these bikes to get popular
That thing is gonna be sick with a full stealth pipe... Well done on sheading light on an overlooked bike🤘🙏
Good Stuff Boyz. That is a killer sounding Harley Davidson.
Top man Ryan,keep doing things just how your doing it brother.
Thanks! Will do!
So interested in this build! Keep posting the journey for us! Much love!
TIG weld: I don't really like that bead profile...
Ballpeen hammer: BAAAMM, say less fam!
All in all you guys rule, this might be the underated GOAT in the Harley Davidson lineup!
You have a new follower obsessed with this build great content thankyou 👌🏼
Nice work Ryan, I can't wait to hear you ripping it 💨💨
Thank you 🙏
This is really making me want one now.
Love the sound and look of his pipe. Worth the watch just for the running commentary! Do you moonlight doing standup? 🤣
Wilbers makes suspension for it. I’ve had the nightster since it came out and it’s a ripper. Glad your putting pressure for aftermarket on this.
Somebody else just said that to I’ve never heard of that company are they American?
German company I believe but supposedly they make some badass suspension. Ive never run them or seen them in person though. @kruesioriginals
thank god someone is finally trying to push the aftermarket on these bikes
Damn sounds like some sort of massive prehistoric beast!
Kruesi Originals
Can you not make brass bushing for the rear dyna shocks? if I remember correctly you said the mounts were loose…

They definitely are. It’s the meanest sounding thing I road.
The louder the better
Amen

Always coming through with some fire products, man
I think this will be my next bike, thanks to you. No more lowrider st lolol
Is there a chance we can hear the exhaust you create after it’s put into production and has a cat inside of it thanks. Much appreciated. Is there a big difference in sound is what I wonder thanks again.
That’s it, you talked me into it. Ordering one now lol. Please leave the pipe, do NOT tone it down, Kruesi ain’t known for turning it down!!!
😂😁😁
Can’t wait until you guys come out with a slip on
I'm coming to the shop next year for sure I'm in Maryland eastern shore
NO CAT!!! GREAT SOUND AS IS
Looks Sick! Throw that TI header wrap on and put the heat shield in the trash! Sturgis T-MINUS 14 days. Lets go!!
Love your videos man, was leaning towards an FTR but this thing would be sweet next to my LRS.
Definitely go with the Nightster. It’s a much better bike than FTR.
Are you guys going to be ripping this bike at the Thunder Dome in Sturgis?
Dude that sounds sick, I want one for mine. Make sure you sell to the UK.
It’s definitely coming
Having 2 different exhaust ports is wild.
Stoked for this build!
digging this build. can you V-band it?
Now you made me want one!
Cant wait i just bought a 2024 nighster and it forsure needs an exhaust
🐒 best episode of biker build off every time🍀
I foresee sales increasing because of these videos. My neighbor bought one and he let me ride it. He has a S&S slip on, and it sounds mean. This is a good direction for HD. The bike absolutely rips.
The sporty is my favorite bike not a fan of the new ones but i like what your doing with it.
