This is one mean looking harley!

I always liked motorcycles but the risk in riding them scares me off. But if i were to get a motorcycle this would be it !

http://www.harley-davidson.com/wcm/C...locale=e n_US

failed on the link but it's the VRSCDX Night rod special .

I know it's not a crotch rocket but it looks mean as hell and i fell in love with it , the minute i saw it at the local harley dealership. I love Jap bikes also but this is just SICK looking.

I was always into more of the sport bikes myself , but when i saw this at the dealership i feel in love, it just looks so sinister . I saw the price tag at $18k and some change.

Those v-twins scream bro, suprisingly fast. Harley has really refined the V-rod.

I like the Triumph Rocket III Classic and Victory Hammer a little more. If I didn't have to worry about having a big buffer to pay for my home loan in case my company goes under, I'd probably get one of them.

actually thinking of getting another bike to save some fuel because of the miles I put on my Z. Haven't owned a bike since the 80s because I took a gnarley fall. It may be time to explore it again because of cost analysis.

Thinking Ducati
