Waht is the difference between a Street Rod and a V-Rod???

Thanks!

 

The key difference would be the ergonomics with the Street Rod offering a sportier, slight lean forward, feet high and underneath position. Greater ground clearance too, for the curves. Pegs are higher. There's a larger fuel reservoir for longer tank range. The V-Rod has more classic cruiser lines... more in-the-bike, straight up, feet forward position. A search on Google would provide plenty of hits comparing the two. Would also see a contrast at the Harley-Davidson web site.

 

kinda like apples and oranges!!

 

Different frames...different bikes.

V-Rod is a watercooled cruiser.....Street Rod is a naked street bike!

I took a hard look at the Street Rod when I bought my FXDX...Sport was much easier on this old man body (hands and wrists) than the Street Rod was.

Fun bike to ride though...I liked it better than the V-Rod.

Ride em both...you will see the difference for sure then.

Ride safe.

I haven't driven a V-Rod, but I own a Street Rod (VRSCR), it seems everybody covered the differences b/w the 2, except that you will definitely suprise a lot of rice burners from the light - they have lots of questions about the bike.... when they catch up.

The bike handles well in traffic, and very well on twisties and ramps. The seat is a little uncomftorable after 2-3 hours of riding though. The only other draw-back is there is only room for one chick on the back!
