Default different size vrods ?

Are there different positions for the foot controls, and handle bars, and seat from the factory ?

like are there 3 different "configurations" to choose from ? or is every V-rod have the exact same foot pegs, seat height, and handlebars ?

The A, D, DX and F all have different handlebar heights and grip angles. Pegs (mid on older models) and forward on all newer models. Seat height varies from model and model year. Long way of saying all three are different depending on model and year.

wow, that would make it alot harder finding a used one, especially if you are only looking for a particular size.

There's a few options out there. Fewer new ones, but that's a whole different story...

Check out 1130cc.com for a lot of V bike info.

Don't forget the B and the R. The R being the most different of all the V-rods.
Then there was the X and SE, both performance bikes.
And lastly, the Destoyer. Pure drag bike sold only a bill of sale.
Don't confuse the D and DX. They are totally different bikes.

It's not a non-street legal drag-bike. Not what you're looking for.

You need to watch a little more drag racing. The Destoyers have been dominating their NHRA class for about 3 years now. A showroom floor racer will lose a lot of races. You have to add your own power.

Saw a few destroyers here in Richmond at the drag races. They are serious machines.
