I have been riding motorcycles, off and on, all my life. But I quit when I got married, 25 years ago. Well, now I am old and riding again. I started back out on Groms and the like. Ending up with a 2024 Freedom Fighter 200. Great fun, but I wanted a Harley, to ride with my dad, even though I am not really a Harley guy. I more prefer sport bikes. I spend much of my free time in the mountains, around the tail of the Dragon, or Foothills Parkway.
So I came across the V Rod and decided I must have one. I found exactly what I wanted. Mid Controls, Black frame and a 180 rear tire, for some lean action. It had been sitting for several years, with almost no miles on it. So I have some work to do. In the two weeks I have had it, the rear brake line burst and the primary fuel line split. Sourcing either has been nigh impossible. So, I have managed to figure out that Harley used PA12C connectors for the fuel lines, I will make my own. I have managed to find a local company that can repair my rear brake line. I hope to have it back on the road by next week.
But for now, Here is my baby!! Oh and I just found a set of matching, factory saddlebags for it. They will be here in a week or so. My personalized plate will be here in a couple weeks. H2O HD
