      Harley released a Screamin' Eagle Vrod Destroyer last year set up stricly for the strip. Wheelie bars even came with it, straight off the showroom floor. Experienced riders were getting in the high 9's with it. I'm guessing this is what our man has here, which means he wasn't lying, it is bone stock (with cams, head work, carb, velocity stacks, pipe, air shifter etc.).

      This bike will smoke any stock GS bike with a good pilot.

      I still wanna race it!!

        Man, after posting that pic, I'm again reminded how UNBELIEVABLY HIDEOUS looking those bikes are. Harley designers need to drink less Old Millwalkie...

          I like it Geoff. A lot

          To each his own though. If I were to get an HD, it would not be the Rod.

            Good of you Jethro giving Mr. Trollbush the benefit of the doubt, but go back and look at his timing slip...it's dated August of 2004, bit before the Destroyer. This guy is a keyboard racer.

                  Get used to it, with pollution controls coming soon, I am willing to bet every HD will have that engine, or a variant of it..

                    How do pollution controls have anything to do with the physical styling of the bike in this case? That's not the problem.

                            Exactly. The motor seems fantastic, I just don't like the go-cart looking frame on the outside of the gas tank. And is that an air scoop on the front? They aren't liquid cooled, right? The tank looks like a half a grapefruit, or maybe a turtle shell.

                            Otherwise there is no doubt that this is the best motor in a Harley yet. They are fast, for sure. That's why I wanna race it!

                              I think he is closer to me than to you. The drag slip is from Sacramento. I'd love to run with it! BTW, yes, they are liquid cooled.

                              I liked that silver one they came out with a few years ago. It IS kinda funny looking, but I like it. If I were to buy a Harley, it would be a Vrod. At least I could keep up with my friends. :-D

                                A liquid cooled Harley that goes fast. Hell has frozen over.
