Would be worth it for the rotors :lol:

Especially if that $250-$300 front rotor was still good.

No fucks given.
Seen a guy on a Sportster doing the typical "Harley badass" thing earlier.... He had a scratching post bungee tied to the rear carrier :rolf:

Probably would've helped considering damn near every cruiser that comes out of Japan ends up looking pretty fucking generic :rolf:


The Vmax and early Eliminator stand out, but they're both power cruisers :lol:

I put the vmax in the muscle bike category with the vrod even though that's not a legitimate category :rolf:

So your definition of muscle bike is what I just called a power cruiser :rolf:


Take a powerful engine, put it in something put it in an unsuspecting frame. Sleeper is born... Quick examples: Honda Magna = VFR engine, Kawasaki Eliminator = Ninja engine.

The vrod and vmax are too sporty to be regular cruisers, you might could put the magna in that category, but the eliminator being an inline I would simply call it a power cruiser like you just did :lol:

I kinda wanna ride a newer vmax... curious if they're as batshit as they look. :rolf:

There's not much sporty about the VR unless you get one with mid controls. The forward controls are absolute trash... And it's fucking heavy :lol:


Still wish the XB got that engine over the VR.

Before HD took control of the engine for the VR, when it was under Erik's development for the XB, it weighed 60lbs less than the final product...



Because HD always had Buell on a tiny budget, they forced him to either use the (now heavy) VR engine, or keep using the Sportster engine... Which is why my bike is air cooled :lol:
