Just when I though it wasn't possible to mutilate a v rod I see this. :sick:

rbabos,

I agree, not anything I'd want parked in my driveway but to each their own.  Someone put a lot of cash into transforming a V-Rod into this .

It's not for me, but I'd have to say that it looks very well executed. No doubt a show quality build. The fact is, I would find it very appealing if only it didn't have the Mattel front end.

It's not the V-Rod, its the BigWheel that kills it for me.

Note the neck area. Don't think it will be on the bike long as a daily rider. :banghead:

I was expecting something really ugly, but that is a pretty but very silly motorcycle that made me smile.
I don't think we have to worry too much about how well that seriously under-engineered neck area will last in real life!

You know, I finally realized what this is.... This is the Vrod drag bike and they're trying no sneak it into the bagger drags!

Should have expected this. Baggers like this are dime a dozen at bike shows. Combine that with all the lifter and compensator noises that most TC bagger owners are obsessed with and this is the result.  <Yawn>

Actually, lose the front end and wheel, the rest I could live with. Oh and the pipe. Anyone who has heard a vrod at 9k with that kind of pipe understands. :wink:
