Heavy beast of burden... Also funny that the seat height is 26" at the lowest, it looks a lot lower than that. I guess it floats some people's boats.
 What are they actually selling this for out there?

Well they are pretty cool looking, and indeed pretty fast, it is about time harley decided to make a liquid-cooled engine, only about 20 years late. Eitherway, with the going rate at about $20,000, I would rather take a VTX and a 600RR.

Those came out in what?..2001? It is certainly not just a 100th anniversary specific model.
Anyways, nice bike, not worth the 16+ asking price, but I got a test ride V-Rod up to 135 mph with no problems...;-)> hth, Bill :bandit:

The V-Rod's engine was designed by Porsche, and assembled by Harley. Harley isn't a fan of letting out the full truth, that they had almost nothing to do with the creation of the engine, and that a foreign company created it for them.

A Porsche motor, you say? That's probably why the purists don't like it. Yes, it's about time they water-cooled something. At least it won't be cooking the oil into sludge at every stop light.
And if I was going to drop that kind of money on a new bike, it'd be a K1200GT. I could more easily justify spending that kind of money on a stock Inline 4 than a V-Twin.

Harley came up with the rough concept, but Porsche Design is where it really got tuned.

600 RRs and VTX Wanna be ta ta's
I'll admit When Harley was bought by AMF thay were Junk. But every Major Motorcycle Manufacturer is copying The Harley cruiser for many reasons and if you have ever ridin one like I have (VTX) is Junk as far as I am conserned I weighs in at what a full dresser Harley weighs. Even the new Kawy 2000 cc is a tank.
For you so called men who ride strapped around the gas tank (600RR'S)and hands go numb in an hour and have to stop to take a break you can have that foolishness I ride hard and long.on my bike and old lady. You ta-Ta's that like hugging your gas tank as well as your boyfreinds Get a life. P.S. Porche designed the heads on the V-rod engine and it will keep up with every other rice runner up to 140mph, You want to go faster good luck holding on to your license. As far as price Harley holds it's value unlike any rice junk. for eva.

All you wanna Be's
Harley Dav. was junk only when AMF owned the company. There is no other manufacturer that hold there value as well. I have ridin the VTX and the new Kawy 2000 cc. They are tanks that weigh in at a Harley full dresser. There Jap and ride like one. The V-Rod will keep up with anything on the road till 140 and if you want to keep your license would not make much sense to go any faster if you could.
All you 600rr boys that have to take a break after one hour of riding because your hands go numb. I ride all day and hard on the bike and ole lady. You want to wrap around and hug a rice burner well go ahead it's about as cute as you wrapping your arms around your boyfriends. P.S. Porche designed the heads only on the V-Rod ya you can save some money and buy a rice burner but when you go to get rid of it try getting half your money back for all you tight bookeepers. Ride free and Die Davidson USA all the rest let me check your green card.
