Default Imo.....

Saw one in person this weekend. Can't say I was all that impressed. Nice try but IMO it misses the mark. WTF where they thinking with that exhaust?

I always thought the VRSCX (right letters) was the nicest they put out. That and the original model.

Skullhead, it depends. Do you mean the first 1250cc bike that usually had a flame paint job and color matching? That would be the VRSCX, or X to V-rodders.
If you mean the low slung black bike with drag bars and black pipes, that is the VRSCDX Night Rod Special, or just DX.
(Mine is just a nice simple D, aka Night Rod.)

The one that looked like the drag bike they race. Had the spoke wheel on the front. They had one in my dealer for months, couldn't wait for them to sell it because everytime I saw it I wanted to trade my bike in. Might have even been a CVO bike. I'll Google it and post back.

With the ignition switch up front, I think it's a CVO SE. It's a 1250cc bike. 135hp maybe? I do know it was out of my price range when we bought the D. I like the SE paint job.
