I damn sure ain't no fan of the V-Rod, and I know everyone is pissed about the demise of Buell but if you think HD is going out of business you're crazy as a loon.

Nah, HD would NEVER do anything with the V-Rod.


I expect that platform to be the next to die.

With Buell dead, the V-Rods will be located in the dark corner next to the bathrooms where the Buells used to be hidden.


Somehow, I keep remembering the dangers of the lack of biological diversity from HS biology.

Probably was an occ creation paid for by the air force. Would make as much sense as the air force monster truck.

Not a 25R, and not what i bought, but fun!

It would be scary to ride something with wings on it.

that thing looks like the kiddy rides infront of stores, you know, plunk the tot on it and plop a quarter in the slot and for a couple of minutes it goes up n down

I would not be seen in public with that.
Occ's early stuff was quite original

the valve shims in the rotax are the same as those in the V-wad so, we need em around for a while longer. }

Actually, the Rocker will be first to go.

The V-Rod will be next.

with that vrod when you pass at speed just pull back on the "stick" and you can pass over the top of cars and pick ups now for a semi type vehicle you need a little more speed and a bit more muscle pulling back on the "stick" to get enough air to clear the whole length of the semi....now lets talk about the optional rocket assists that will be available soon for the bike....

You put wings on an 1125 and I think you'd be airborne! I've had it happen without wings on some hills.
