I can understand if it's tough for some people to get on board with things like "the earth isn't really flat", and "Christmas presents aren't really delivered by Santa Clause coming down the chimney", but I'm satisfied that it's their problem more than mine.

Nevertheless, I feel kinda bad for little kids who cry when they find out that Santa Clause isn't real.
Way to blow my Christmas!! Thanks...

I don't see what anyone could have against a Vrod personally. I get it that it doesn't fit the classic HD mold but c'mon man, V-rods are sweet looking and sounding machines with one hell of an engine.

I think a VRod motor in a Dyna would kickass. The main thing I don't like about the VRod is the LOOKs, they are quite ugly to me. Except for a very few custom ones I've seen. A guy that works for me has a bad *** one he customized, made/ redesigned the tins and chin spoiler and some bad *** paint. Then he dropped $5k+ in the motor and is pushing 160hp. It will hang with many crotch rockets and has at least some of the Harley sound.
