Because everyone should buy exactly what you bought. Get the Muscle. Put a set of Vance & Hines pipes, better breathing and a Power Commander. It will rock...

Not at all, don't get me wrong- it could be a great bike. I know some other posters also said, "...if you want a Harley" I should hope OP does... If not he's in the wrong place.

Ok lets one thing staight a v.r is not a sports bike it will not beat a busa an r1 and other sport bikes. It a power cruiser and one of the fastest of that if not the fastest of that class. It will beat some 650 sport bikes. The point is it has great exceleration and a good not great top speed which could b made faster like a 6th gear, or 30 tooth sprocet. This bike should b able to hit 150 with these mods without moding the engine

i don't care what any one says. a v-max is not a cruiser or even a power cruiser, it is a naked sport bike... the ducati diavel is not a cruiser or power cruiser it too is a naked sport bike... and when compared to other sport cruisers minus the ones i mentioned there is only one that is truely faster sport cruiser and it is a monster the "rocket III". the M109R is too close to say but if the vrod was 1800cc then they would all fall to the power of darkside.
