    Don't you mean Porsche power? Harley didn't design that engine.

        Porsche "assisted" HD in the initial design stage only. It is a 100% Harley engine.

          If by "assisted" you mean design the cylinder head, which dictates the power output, then ok.


          Nice bike BTW, even though i don't do Harleys myself.

            Not only are you gay, but ignorant as well. It is a cruiser, not a sport bike...apple and oranges. For a cruiser, 124 RWHP from a 2 cylinder engine is nothing to scoff at.

            coming from sportbikes you should know this. And your vrod is not american muscle, engine was designed by porsche(as all harley engines have been since the shovelhead), and built in france(cast into the engine itself).
            Wrong. Some early design assistance was acquired from Porsche, but the build, rights, and ownership all belong to Harley. There is not a Porches nameplate anywhere on the engine. Your like saying all 4 valve per cyinder engines were built by Peugeot. Stupid.

            Also 124 hp shit in a 700 pound machine. My 450 makes 60 at the wheel will smoke that, done it several times.
            What a tard. Its already been said, its a cruiser.

            You want a mans bike try my 570, makes 78hp at the wheel and weighs 210lbs with full tank. It's about power to weight.
            If your gay.

            If you want a real harley
            I have a real Harley.

            I've been thinking of selling my 48 pan. One year only production bike, only one to come with a springer due to extra's from knuckle production.
            Yeah, right. And Im going up to the International Space Station next week too.

            Some day you will grow up little man.

              now I ride a Harley
              ...go make a Hardly thread then.

              I ride in Harley heaven. There's nothing more annoying than a bunch of lollygaggin' twins taking up the corners at 15 miles per hour.:yawn:

                  I pit worked for pascal picotte at most of the midwest races when he rode for harley, and got to talk to the porsche engineers that were there constantly collecting data. The vr-1000 engine that the vrod is based on started with a bottom end design in house at harley, heads originally designed by roush yates. Design for the vrod engine was handed entirely to porsche, yes there were harley engineers present. But porsche headed the program for harley. Harley has used porsche for design help since the shovel. And your bike is not american made, it's american assembled. I've torn apart probly 40 vrod engine's for big bore setup's, stamped right into it says made in france. Harley's are only about 30% american sourced product. Hardly what I would call american muscle. And if you hate supermoto's so much, why even come into the thread other than to show how ignorant you are? If you don't like the bikes stay the fuck out.

                          There are enough non cyclists throwing up static at those of us that ride, we don't need any more abuse from among our ranks.

                          I love all motorcycles and although i don't own a supermoto, they are a hell of a lot of fun to ride !
