      I was gonna comment about his stock V-Rod doing low 10's too. Just silly.
      And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!
      Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!

          I'm not reading this whole thread, I just wanna race the vrod. See the Moosehead Lake ride in the meetingplace, we are planning a little fun at the strip for Thursday evening before that ride. Hopefully you are in the area?

          Where do you live jrforbush? You should join us on the ride, there will be some good people there, and some racing!

          As a side note, and regardless of the performance, that vrod is the most gawd awfull looking bike human kind has ever created. Even a Ural is better looking than that disaster. And I love Harleys by the way, love them for sure. One of these will be mine someday...

                With what mods? The time you posted isn't possible with a stock VROD.

I am not just standing back and bashing the V-Rod (Like so many are more than willing to do) I am being realistic as to the power these machines have......Justin

                    I'm sorry, I must have misunderstood something. In which post did you lie?

                      Yeah. The lowest times you see in magazines are with riders that are very good at racing. They're usually small riders too.
                      Most of us can't match them and "our" times are even higher. His bike is a true 11.2 with these better riders.
                      This guy could have a freak V-Rod you think? Maybe it thinks it's a re-incarnated Suzuki?

                        Yeah. Just read about his lying about being stock. Oops!? Hard to believe what he says at all now. That was the main reason for this thread going on.
                        I still think my '79 would take him.

                          Is yours the time on the right or the left? What were you racing against?

                              Looks like a Sacto. ticket. Hey jr4bush, bring 'er up to my get-together. We'll see how your bike does against my old slow 1150 :twisted:

                                If we are to believe that 10 is his, and it could be, with that mph in the back half he must have about a 40hp shot of juice or $5000+ in engine work.
