I've pretty much been on all the Harley's, being in my mid 30's, maybe not experienced enough to make this statement, but none of them come close the VROD, especially the 2008 model.  Correct me if I'm wrong.

It's my VROD that's smokin'!!!  Either way i love them all, my mate bought a Sportster yesterday and i love that too.  Fact is, you haven't been riding unless it was on a Harley...

240mm back tyre, amazing power, shitloads of chrome... nothing else matters...

Aaaaah the exuberence and enthusiasm of youth, all I will say is that as long as you are riding, nothing much else matters. I've had as much fun if not more on Triumphs, Nortons, BSA's, a 600 single slopey Panther & even a Bantam... Also, beauty is in the eye of the beer holder and for me, bout the only thing uglier that I've seen to do with Harley's, is me... he he... No apologies for being old school... In my 35th year of ridin' and still lovin' it... - Sump...

G'day m8 & welcome.

Yep the V-ROD is a sweet bike, very cool styling.

 

So don't tell me, wots the GG for, I know.

" for the kiddies ti ride on "  in my best spike voice over

Doesn't matter what you ride, it's all the same wind.

I'm going to have to disagree with you about the V-roids, with the exception of the nightrod special, they all looked like a slapped arse to me

Gday M8 and welcome to the forum

Welcome to the forum, hope you enjoy it.

I guess because VROD GG thinks so .... met a guy on the flight last Sunday who hails from Adelaide that has just sold his fatty for a Night Rod

btw.... welcome from the best place to be

A mate of mine just got one and i have to say from the photos they didn,t do much for me, but in the flesh WOW very nice looking bike

Not my cup of tea although I would love one as a second bike....make that third i want a shovel next......but the Rods are becoming really popular in the clubs i have noticed....

Nahhh, not for mine.

V-Rods: The Harley you ride when you don't want to ride a Harley.

Oh, And welcome to the forum.

Listen to all you VROD KNockers, fact is, it's the fastest production Harley ever made. It is stylish with the best set of pipes you'll ever see on a Harley. Some of you talking about Triumphs, what the F#ck! Amercan Muscle over British Shit anyday thank you. Otherwise try the Triumph Forums.

Quarter mile SGR.....my bagger up against ur Rod mate......yeh ur right.....lets not....

They still look like shit.

Nah just takin' the piss.

They're not my style but hey, if that's what blows your hair back, go your hardest.

Yeh im pretty sure even if i drank the saddle bags empty i still would see Rob waving back at me.....

I will give you 50m start over 400m.  My VROD will love the challenge, or lackl thereof.

I tried to wheelie one a few times but couldn't get it to play the game.
Mind you I was on a test ride with a chaperone so i couldn't make it too obvious.
Anyone had any success ?

It seemed to go okay provided you had some revs on board.
Would eat any other Harley. Certainly in a straight line.

 

EDIT*** found a half arsed wheelie attempt on a street rod

I've never lifted the front wheel, however, almost between 2nd and 3rd while revving at 7000, with my missus on the back, need more weight on the back to have any chance of getting it up....
