Nice V-rod ecu.....I heard they are pretty fast? What are the around 115 hp?? Porsche helped with the design as Harley knew they had expeirence with going from an air-cooled engine to water-cooled. Nice bike.....congrats!

Thanks- yes it is very much fast (or at least I think so)- I've never been on a crotch rocket before, so I dont really know- it ha 45 more hp than my 1200 though, and feels like a completely different animal in comparison.

Very nice. I'm not a big fan of the red, but that's just me. I think they look great regardless. And what do you know, a non-Buell Harley with *****.

What kind of pipes are you looking at?? I like the Vance@Hines straight pipes that are flush with each other at the tips, they look sweet.....but they are loud as hell, I'm not big on the Screaming Eagle pipes but they are legal as far as decibels go. I really like the stanless silver look on the first run of bikes, but the orange is old school Harley.

I love the way the stock pipes look- I haven't heard the Vance&Hines pipes yet, but have heard and test driven a screaming eagle equiped Vrod, which I liked both the sound and performance of, but I am not a big fan of how plain they look over stock... But either way, I am looking at $800 or the pipes and software download

Looks nice.
I've seen this color in person and it looks good.
It's always a good thing to have new toys.

That was one of the things that attracted me to it. I swear it sounds like a 911....
