I have one, outdoors leaning against the garage. It started smoking a couple years back and parked it. One day I'll go threw the engine, very very fast bike. I did 130 mph quick, but not into 160 mph wow you was laying down the road.

Off the line for a short distance torque is your friend, I have surprised some faster lighter higher revving bikes a well. A heavy Harley with torque coming on at fairly low rpms can get off the line pretty quick.

I know its not a bagger but pretty dam cool and I bet its perfect for stop light drag racing watch the video http://www.tts-performance.co.uk/#!t...ley-v-rod/c3k5 and on that note I will say goodbye to you guys I sold my Harley today and bought another bike that suits my needs better . I will miss it no doubt and probably regret selling it after having it for 10 years but alas we don't have the roads or the climate to suit a Harley where we live . my son rides on the back with me and keeps growing bigger every day so I needed something more suitable for the task with better anchors . I enjoyed the chat and the craic with you all ride safe my friends and be nice to each other everyone is fighting some kind of battle . who knows I might be back again in the future I still fancy another sportster a ratty flat tracker style 1200 .
