It's just another V-Twin. Looks more like a Bar Bike

How do you figure? It emulates plenty of Harleys, the V-Rod being the least of which. There's a lot of XR1200 in there too, thought the seating is lower. |

No resemblance whatsoever?? Did I say "no resemblance whatsoever"? Can you read?Really??? So no, not "really".
It resembles a bunch of Harleys in the looks department. The V-Rod is not the first low slung cruiser in the H-D lineup. But this bike is big-inch and air-cooled so resemblance aside, it's much more in keeping with the spirit of other H-D designs than the relatively small displacement, liquid cooled v-Rod. |

I'd still choose the M109r over all of them.

Personally,...if I had to absolutely have a V-twin, it would be the V-Rod hands down.
HD dealers are hurting and they are making outstanding deals just to get rid of their abundant inventory (even the new 2012s).

If I had to go the V-twin route I would probably go with a sport touring (V-Strom) ,but in a cruiser the M109 is hard to beat. After riding a Yamaha Stratoliner I would have a hard time deciding between the two.

If I didn't have my Valkyrie, I'd have a V-Rod.....It's the anti Harley....I just really like the looks of those bikes, really like the black.

That was the bike I was looking at, till I put my hand on the tank of a running Valk,. Smooth is where its at! |
