Still ugly. Its like my pappy used to say, "You cant polish a turd". And to me the V Rod is a turd no matter how you dress it up.

Don't think I would call it a turd, I like em. In fact, the Night Rod is one of the best looking HDs in my opinion. Would like to get one and throw a supercharger under the air cleaner cover (fake tank).

But why make a vrod, the fastest most maneuverable H-D into a trike? And it ain't so pretty. In my book, you make tourings into Trikes. I mean, what are you cuttin out, about 2 degrees of lean???

Why the **** would you call the V-Rod a turd? Another dumb-*** statement!

Maybe the v-rod will be Harley's Holy Graile... If the EPA has anything to do with it... IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN... Water Cooled Throuout the models...

THEN we will see 135HP outa the box...

Can anyone say Harleybusa...[sm=icon_quiet.gif][sm=joke.gif]

The Vrod in the Baggers mag looks pretty sweet to me. I would take that out on the road.

Richard hit it on the head when it comes to the EPA vs. bikers. I think before long you'll see more radiators in front of Harleys then you want...[]

Thats what I'm talking about, then hit it with a SC and you are getting 170 hp from a reliable engine combination.
