I think if they would put a full fender on the front such as a FLH has, that it would be a totally awesome bike.

I would love to stick a "rod" motor in my FLH

I saw someting similar to this at the National HOG rally in Billings last summer. They look better in person than in the pics. Still... the V-Rod is just not my cup of tea.

Regards,

Bill

Eh, I don't think it's that bad. In fact, I like the Road Glide fairing a little better on the V-Rod than I do on the Road Glide itself. Go figure; the Road Glide fairing is just weird to me.

I'd like to see an Ultra Classic fitted out with the V-Rod engine set up. I think it's coming, the water cooled engine will allow more control for the EPA and the more HP is nice as well, Hope they can keep the current Ultra Classic look in the change over.

Don't know if it is still this way but my friend who is a HD service tech said they had been told to not even turn wrenches on those contraptions. That they were inherently(sp) unstable.
The only thing "inherently unstable" about that design is that your dealer doesn't sell it.
