I really fancy a Harley V-ROD....help me decide what to do!
Discussion
Well I am really pleased with the bike! I have done a few miles but not many as the weather is crap... But enough to know I really like it!
Its been in the garage today on the hoist having a good clean!
Its a bit longer than the Sportster so I had difficulty getting it close enough to the wall to get the cars in, so I made this device which means I can easily push it sideways...

Nice looking bikes although I do prefer the look of your old bike more. Whack a supercharger on...

Nice bike, if you are not already a member, have a look at the HDRCGB forum, have a few members who own VRods
I think there are more V-Rod owners posting on here on a regular basis last time I looked on the HDRCGB forum for V-Rods there was 1 post in 2014 .....I guess there are only around 150 V-Rods in the UK so pretty rare

lovely, I'd love a ramp but only a single modern garage so not enoguh room
There are plenty of other options that don't take up much room in a single garage.I've got one of these Eazyrizer lifts for my Harley and is great for lifting up the bike to work on or clean in my single car garage.

Guys don't tend to post in the bike model sub forums, if you post as a guest and ask, you'll find there are quite a few owners in the clublast time I looked on the HDRCGB forum for V-Rods there was 1 post in 2014 .....I guess there are only around 150 V-Rods in the UK so pretty rare
Congratulations on the bike, there are very few owners that that have bought a V-Rod and not loved it.
Reliability wise, I bought my Night Rod Special new in 2007, have dove over 11,000 miles with nothing other than tires, a fuel sender under warranty and three services.
Performance wise when the weather is good it should not disappoint, straight line is great fun but main challenge is the cornering due to the low ground clearance of the radiator cowls, exhaust and rear sub frame. A K&N, power commander and pipes make a world of difference to the power delivery.
Enjoy it and keep us posted on how you find it.
