If this bike becomes a reality I will get in line to buy one.

Believe me if harley makes a vroddresser it's to compete with the goldwing... not the electra-glide

No ****ing way you just compared the V Rod to the Goldwing...
I got respect for all bikes, I like them all, especially the Japanese bikes BUT harleys are ahead competition.

Why wait? You can make a V-Rod like that yourself.

I am looking at a 2003 black & silver model that has had the "Road Rod" conversion done to it. Does any have any idea what it should sell for? Thanks.

Here is a simple and not very expensive batwing install done by a guy I ride with all the time.

I guess I never realized that Daniii's was quick-release, since I assumed that he had the fairing and the tourpak on all of the time. Very informative, thanks Max.

Ok I agree!I rode my buddies VRod tonight. What a powerhouse. I do have to say though, it's not as smooth as the Heritage.
They need to make at least a Sport Touring model. That Para-sailing sitting posn doesn't cut it at 75-80 for long distance w/o a windshield.
A frame similar to an FLHT frame would be best. Keep the fatty rear tire !!! Make it like an FXRT with that type of fairing. But yeah . . . They need a touring model.

Get Willie G on the phone !!!!!!!!!!!!

Who would trash up a V-rod by putting a bat wing fairing on it.

Just buy a Touring bike. Looks like a wannabe.

Sorry, IMHO.
