If that is the case; this photo does not have the V-Rod radiator showing... so I am not sure where they hid it.
The V-Rod motor being used for tourers has been floating around for years, but it has not been incorporated yet. I, personally, would like to see it used someday, but so far it has not.

/sigh/ I guess I wasn't in the market for a new bike this year anyway. An ugly bike with a smaller displacement motor? Sorry, but I just can't see it selling well. I'd take a new Electra Glide over that any time.
The Vision is an acquired taste. That........um, I don't know what to say.

Exactly...there is so much more to it. That is why the 600cc crotch rockets can run circles around so many bigger bikes.

Because you and I have become such good friends we never insult each other, therefore, no need for ass kissing.
