Yes it is my long term garage locked Harley Street Rod. I bought it about 2 years ago as a modern project bike for a series in American Iron Magazine, but a lack of special parts has stalled it.

One supplied promised to have some parts to us 2 years ago and he keeps stringing us out on them. We finally gave up on him last week and are about to restart this project with a different direction.

I rode this V-Rod for about a month when I first purchased it and felt it is a solid bike with amazing torque. Looking forward to getting it back on the road in the Spring after we modify it over the winter.

Are you replacing the front-end?

No, planning on leaving the stock Harley Street Rod upside down forks on the bike. We have some trick carbon fiber wheels but can't get the trick composite rotors we have been promised for about 2 years. That's the hold up.

I know that, I'm looking to buy an "R" front end, that's why I asked if he was replacing it. Not interested in the muscle front end.
