myhondas Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 But the truth be told....a V-Rod isn't really a Harley-D but a Porsche that H-D put their name on...Like a pig that wears lipstick but in reverse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpoppa Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 Needs a rebuild every 1/4 mile. Sounds like a Harley to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 Not entirely true. The VRod engine was developed WITH Porsche, but it's roots are in HD's VR1000 Super Bike Racing program. It wouldn't be inaccurate to say though, that the Motor Company needed the Germans to get the engines to run for more than 500 miles at a time however.

Earache Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 Having toured the V&H shop in Indy a few times, I can tell ya that their bikes have nothing in common with H-D's other than the color scheme of the paintjobs. That place is so cool and sano that it makes ya sick. Mill their own heads and blocks (this one is a IL4).... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
