You know, for me... a motorcycle doesn't have to be the fastest, best handling machine in the world for me to have fun on it... I guess I'm one of the rare ones on this board who cannot utilize any supersport to it's fullest capabilities.

No, it doesn't, and I don't dispute that at all. Now and then I still enjoy taking the Beemer out and let it thud around at 6000-RPM. But claiming that the V-Rod is fast...

I really don't agree with that. It wasn't a blanket statement. It may not be top end fast, but I bet a proper Nightrod will take allot of sportbikes, especially off the line. I stand behind my statement, so I was not "called out" on it.

Crazy2sin's nightrod is not stock, its from there I got the low 11 figure. Yes he can dump it off the line and is probably one of the most skilled people I know in stoplight drags. Still doesn't make it 600 fast

I don't own one so I can't even provide physicall proof or race a 600 from here. The one I rode was insane and I would have gave my left testicle to take home. ![]() If Uma was more comfortable on the vrod, I'd trade the nightster in for one. |
