I bought it new ,back in 02. It is a 100th edition (03) and I had to wait 1 year to get it. Up here, I am lucky to put 2000 miles per year on it.

It is beautiful. I love the look of the V-Rod.
You all need to move south... as in GA or FL! Even SC is nice. I am rather partial to the Empire Coast of GA. Low population and good cost of living with great weather! |

If I were to someday choose a cruiser over a sport bike, the V Rod is tempting.
Very nice! |

Wow, does it come from the showroom setup like that?
Last month I rented a softtail right there in Manchester there and went cruising upstate for the day. No offense, but I was dying to get back home and ride my Honda back after that Harley ride. |

Nice bike Pete!
Oh, and CC you probably already know you don't buy a Harley for the ride and comfort. It's all about the image man.  |

LOL, my "image" was made in 2008 yet the front trim rattled for the entire trip.

For the most part, yes. Quite a few parts have been chromed, but any accessory is directly from the Harley catalog. Seat is also a Harley Sundowner. This is not a typical Harley. Stuff does fall off it occasionally, but quality seems better than most HD's. BMW Frame, and Porshe motor. It also has a unique sound. Most Harley guys hate them, and most guys that ride japanese bikes hate it cause it is a Harley. Probably the least accepted bike on the road. Runs 11.80 @112 and 0-60 in 3.0 sec, and is reasonably comfortable though. |

I think it looks great. Who cares what other people think as long as you enjoy it.

If that's true, then the V-Rod would be the ZR1  |
