Default Evel's V-Rod

His last bike in his name just sold for $50K in Vegas @ Barrett Jackson.
That is one v-rod I would like to have if I could afford it.
Here is a link to a picture of it.

Yeah, I caught that tonight as well. a VROD with Long Shot exhaust is a bit different for sure..

I wonder if the new owner will ride it? They had it running and rode it off the stage.

Look's like others found a working link, To me he was one of the one's I found myself drawn to on the tv when growing up when he was doing a jump on "Wide World of Sports" our family doctor, Dr Blackadar was the one in the kayak that rescued him after the rocket cycle jump over the Snake river.

Nice bike, but I'm a little surprised its basically stock. You would think being who he was he might have dropped something more performance wise than the fueler and pipes into it.
RIP Evil you were truely a one of a kind biker.

They have one at the dealership where I bought my bike.

They have it listed in the "Used bike" section.

A V-Rod is a V-Rod. Still just don't get em... I know they're supposed to be the greatest liquid cooled thing on wheels, but for the life of me, I just don't get it....
