Cafe Vrod?

I was at a bike show last week and saw a Vrod that was all done up with Road Glide parts. It had the full fairing and hard bags. It looked very nice. It got me to wondering if anyone had ever done up a Vrod in a Cafe racer style. A Vrod certainly has the performance, so if it had the looks as well it could be a really nice looking, modern but classic bike.

I have owned a dyna, two soft tails, touring bike and now a vrod. The vrod by far is my best bike. I love the performance and how smooth it is, i could never go back. The only thing that would get me to sell it, is a roadglide vrod. IN a heartbeat, i would be trading in. Somthing the wife can ride on with the performance, but probably would never happen.

Love the look of the Road Rod? I keep hearing that the Road Glide is going away next year. Maybe that is how it will come back. I found this picture, off Facebook, and this is more along the line of what I was thinking.

Thanks badlands and hollowpoint. I like the blacked out turbo vrod as well. I built my vrod bagger because i wanted the benefit of water cooling to get rid of the heat issues with the Ultra. The Vrod is 95% of my Ultra. Just missing the CB/radio and cruise but dont miss it. The turbo on the black vrod is a different brand but the results are the same. Twist the throttle hang on and grin!!!!
