They are a great value until you try to trade it in or sell it...I have seen used V rods sit on the show room floor for up to 2 years...The V rod is a great bike and fun to ride...They just don't have much resale value.

Another thing about them is that they are not as user friendly as the other Harleys When it comes to customizing, I’m also not too crazy by new ergonomics; they should develop a show room Touring model and bring back the mid control model with a inverted front end , different size front wheel and small faring. Buying a V-Rod is not cost effective at all. I do think the Touring model will be a nice compliment for the V-Rod line. And you know if and when they do it…. It will be a few years too late because the ones that are not die hard bagger riders will move to another new fad. They should have did it about 2-3 years ago.
