It's been 10 years since I rode a V-Rod, and that was on the surface roads. Wondering what vibration is like at Interstate speeds on a long trip. One with Cycle Visions stuff may be in my future.

I HAVE RIDEN MY V-ROD TO FLORIDA FROM SOUTH JERSEY, 4 OR 5 TIMES. THERE IS NO VIBRATION. IT'S LIKE AN ELECTRIC MOTOR. SMOOTH.

The absence of vibration and the cruiser like ride quality is what threw me for a loop on the test rides I did.  I haven't been happy with my softail since. Over 4-5k rpm its got giddy-up too.
