i bet it costs over 15k and id rather have an I4 personally… used 1098 perhaps if i had to stay vtwin. Ohlins, marchesini, etc etc are not cheap components ---

i’m sure it won’t be cheap. you can throw down a 4500.00 fully refundable deposit if you want one though! edit: not to mention the name Harley is all over the place… but… “Harley-Davidson” and “Revolution” are registered trade names of the Harley-Davidson Motor Company Roehr Motorcycles LLC is in no way affiliated with the Harley-Davidson Motor Company but still…$ ---

Cool an unreliable bike with an ugly frame… and it costs big bucks… I didnt notice the cans when i was at work… akras too… nice single sided swingarms always look nice though ---

doesnt a busa make that N/A without forced induction, a S/C bike with 180 horse seems weak to me, it should be making more, but then again for those who wanna mod it, there’s more to do ---

V’s don’t have the same HP but they have all of their torque at a much lower rpm. It’s more usable, gear selection isn’t as critical. ---

great motor if I must say so my self… but the supercharger kits suck major balls, they have a really high failure rate, even after being revised I think 5 times now. revo motor + turbo = 160 rwhp and great reliability. several running around with 30-50k trouble free miles. ---

seriously. there are liter bikes that probably shake a lot less that could rival the fuck out of it. for an estimated 6 grand less. single sided swingarms are hot as fuck though ---

I obviously like the idea of a v twin sportbike, but that is pretty ugly. I wonder how it sounds? ---

I am not a harley guy I am not a vtwin guy I am an I-4… (fast, reliable, cheap, plentiful to find parts on) Id love to take one for a spin though… my 10r and gsxr had a claimed weight of 370… obviously a bit pessimestic, but ill put money on my bike roll on and in the 1/4… no biggy though… this bike is more original
