V-Rod Is Missing
V-Rod Is Missing
Looks like the V-Rods are missing from the 2018 lineup, lets hope they come back
at some point in time. I always said make it 90 inches, & tune it for torque. & lower
redline to 7000 RPM. Make a Sports Touring Bike, with Bags and a windscreen.--JMO

Nah! I don't agree - the motor is similar to that XG500/750
I think the big motor that's in the VRod at 1250cc/122hp will be back - it's just too bulletproof (they do not break! I think HD is
aware of that and that their repair business will decrease -
Conspiracy theorist, here !! Ha ha but true)
They run at much cooler operating temp - whereas you can sit
at a red lite when it's 95 degrees waiting to change and not pass out from the heat of the motor like my 09 Electra Glide! LOL!!
Sad but true the old EG just runs too hot even with tuner's.
