The V-Rod was actually sold from 2002 till 2017. 02'-07' had the 1130cc motor putting out 115HP 08' and up models were the 1250cc motor putting out 123HP. In 2006 Harley Davidson started putting Brembo brakes front and rear as some thought the original brakes were a bit inadequate. I picked up a 2006 two years ago with only 4316 miles on it for a little shy of $5k, and I'm in love with it. It gets looks and compliments wherever it goes.
The extra cc and horse power of the newer models was to compensate for the heavier designed machine. The original v rod 115hp is still the fastest production harley ever made
Harley should bring back this bike on market !
As a new rider I’m in awe how you ride every bike so effortlessly.
Great motorcycle 🏍 👌 👍
The vids of guys on these beasts goin down the road just roasting the back tire and floating around as they do it are insane. Hope the museum gets a Destroyer some day.🇺🇸✌🏻
There's a fantastic doco getting around on the making of the VRod. Most likely on CZcams.
One of my favorite Harleys! 🇺🇸
My first and only bike (so far) is a used 2013 HD Vrod muscle. When I look at and compare other bikes and options I feel so spoiled; it really feels like the perfect bike for me. 1250 cc stage 1 w/Vance&Hines 2n1 to haul my 340lb frame around & brembo brakes with available ABS to stop it. 240mm rear Michelin Scorcher tire together with the huge 5gal under seat tank and top of engine air box give it an almost impossible to drop peg scraping extra wide and extra low center of gravity. The super comfortable forward controls and nice wide soft factory seat make this muscle cruiser one of the most intuitive and easy to ride bikes I have ever ridden. The engine is basically bulletproof being watercooled and designed for racing (see Düsseldorf test). Because of the hydroformed frame design the bike doesn't get the death wobble at highway speeds like a lot of other traditional Harleys. One of the best parts still is it's worst part, or should I say best part again... Because of the hate from the diehard Harley enthusiasts this bike didn't really sell so you can get a used one for cheap, but since it's a Harley and well built as long as you take care of it it can basically hold it's value; from personal experience I was just recently offered trade-in value at what I originally purchased it for.
Bikes & Beards just got his hands on one of the v.rod drag bikes that isnt street legal and was bought from the dealer for drag race only. I watched a documentary on this bike when they were testing it at Porsche years ago and taking it out on the autobahn. Really awesome machines.

I was going to say the same exact comment. You beat me to it 👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
It's the perfect bike for you Ken! Factory Hot Rod!!
Cool bike vrod in Australia is very very well liked massive following but it's unfortunate that H D isn't making the bike anymore it's a shame
That's wicked man! Gets up and GO for sure by looks and sounds of info. Great to see it get ripped some by you out front, lol.
I like the air box mod that houses the gages in a different air box cover. Worth every penny
badass looking bike i love that color kap
i thought sr was gonna hole shot it threw the grass lol . hey shawn over on the bikes n beards channell has a destroyer im pretty sure he just did a video on the race version v rod if thats what your talking about
Men never grow up!! Despite all the technical info, Give him a cape and he would discover the meaning of life.
8:34 EPIC MIC TOSS!
Sr, has good hands, but I have to give Jr some credit, always where the reciever can catch it, and the defense couldn't.
You guys HAVE to do a Mic toss compilation video, on your next best of vid!
Super moto!
i have a 2005 screaming eagle, when i got it it had 4,448 mile on it , just turned over 5,000 miles on it now, traded a slingshot for it
Looks like it hugs the road good
Yes, very appropriate. 👍
Love it
How many takes did that mic toss take 😂 if you said 1 i would believe it because this is merica baby.. love the videos will be up to see the Museum this summer will be there with my father inlaw and brother in-law for sure we love all bikes with a engine some more then others 😂 .we are like 2.5 hrs away Cant wait .... have jr on fb and love seeing him connect with the community on several different pages always see gold coming from him love all you guys my brothers much love always.MERICA!!!!!!
Badass!
Nice!!!
v-rods get a lot of very undeserved hate from the so-called Harley faithful. In truth, they are great bikes, with great styling.
How can you change primary fluid, when the V-Rod has no primary?
One hole oil change.
Never liked them myself but lots do.
Srk Cycles has one!
In Australia Ken anyone that rides a vrod we call them a nikei bikei
Idk if you have heard of the CZcams channel called Bikes and Beards or SRK Cycles but he has a destroyer for sale with the wheely bars the full race bike for harley davidson....I think he is selling it too....
How much
@@KaplanCycles I have know idea...I did message them though so maybe he will get in touch with you guys...
I bought a vmax a month ago.
👍🏻
I believe Eric buell had somthing to do with the engine design/concept,I remember a video on youtube,with him saying how he wanted to put the engine in buell bikes, or it would have been better used In buell bikes, but Hd decided to put it in a cruiser with little to no ground clearance!
Nice bike,shame its no longer available new.
That's two great bikes killed off (buell and vrod) by the motor company,that is so badly needed for the young blood to get into HD.
You need a xr1200r in you collection. :-)
We have 1
For a while that big rear tire thing was out of control.
40mpg! Yeah right. I have an 02 and I’m lucky if I get 30mpg on the highway going 60mph.
Because they wear Nike shoes 👟 obviously
You confused the engine specs with Vrod Muscle bud. This 1130 engine is weaker than you say
@@mitchmoot2832 what's to explain? It's got smaller displacement, less torque and power.
He gave numbers of 1250 bigger motor. This is smaller and weaker 1130 unit.
@@mitchmoot2832 who says it's unreliable? I certainly didn't. I commented on the numbers he quoted which were wrong and taken from specs of stronger and bigger motor.
Guy confused weaker early engine with bigger VR Muscle motor.
First
:D
I have an '04 and can easily get 120 miles per tank (3.5 gal tank) on long-easy rides (70/75 mph) so that actually makes it 40 mpg 👊😎
Makes the EVO MOTOR look like
a dog, and pure shouldn't ride this bike it's too fast U need to
Send it to me, so I can test ride
it for you, I'll send it back to you
in a year or so fully tested and
cleaned!!!!
THANK'S from NOR-CAL!!!!
What I meant is pure harley guy's
shouldn't ride this bike it's too
fast.
Thank god it doesn't handle like a Porsche. It would kill nearly everyone that rode it hard.
