Default V-Rod clone

Was over at a local show and there was a V-Rod clone from Korea with a $6400 price on it, NEW.
Looked close enough that the V-rod pipes should fit on it.
Quality was poor, chrome poor, but to the untrained eye, and price I am sure they will sell.
There were a lot of Harleysockies running around, people dressed up riding them trying to look like Hells Angels.
Do people have no shame, or mirrors at home?

Humm, knuckle didn’t I ask you for a photo of your bike that we are still waiting on;-)
And I wasn’t going to justify that piece of crap with pictures, the pictures are too flattering:-) don’t show the crap wheels up close.
I wanted to add a couple of things this show was over in Stark Fl, yea the town where they keep old sparky, the Stark bike fest.
A ten acre paved parking lot, in ninety degree Fl heat, man what a waste of ten bucks.
There was one notable bike there; a servicar striped down no bed, no gas tank, gas was in the frame. Shovel, engine, very clean.
Sure got my vote
I did not care how they cut the frame just in front of the seat to get it lower and ran a tube straight down. Made a nice scrotum catcher.
And yea here are some photos worth showing.



As I get older seen to head toward the three wheelers.
Had a nice ride over and back, did some exploring on some dirt roads, went to turn around and dumped it in the sand.
Haven’t done that in almost a year.
Went to turn and the front wheel just slid out.
I was on the ground before I knew I was going down.
This was the first time I dropped it with the saddle bags on so I was curious as to whether they would hit. The crash guards in the front took most of the weight the bags hit some, but did no damage. Need to take them off and paint anyway, but no damage.
Banged up my shin on the air cleaner trying to get off.
That bike gets heaver every year.
All in all a nice trip.

I will give Knucklehead some kudos. Knuck sure knows his "OtherThanAmerican/Metric" Bikes. Must have the photos saved to the Hard Drive huh?

I like the old trike, except for the crotch crusher like Harley Cruiser pointed out. A sudden stop could be really painful. As for the V-Rod knock off....its butt ugly...looks cheap....

They are cheap but they are selling well, and quality has improved greatly in the last few years.
