Depends if you want new or used. I got mine for significantly less than that.![]()

That will be my ride when I hit 35 . . . I got 10 years to enjoy the SS
Bah.. get a real muscle cruiser.. check out the Ducati Diavel. Price point is pretty similar, and the Diavel outperforms the V-Rod in *EVERY* aspect.

Sweet! I was first in to win... Honestly though, they're a mint bike. I'm pretty sure I'd own one, as would most SS riders if they were forced to choose an HD.
not the xr1200?
I tell you...I don't know how they do it! Thing looks awesome and it's frikkin comfortable!!!
I was blown away. Would love to take one out for a spin.
Go to Apex Cycle in Waterloo. They've got a demo you can take out if you're interested.
Call and book and appointment.
Thing is freakin' amazing. I want one SOOO bad, especially after the demo ride.
Mind you, it's the Carbon version with Termignoni Full System ($4K!!!)...
How is a 4K dollar price difference a similar price point?
I don't disagree with your second point...but you need to fact check your pricing...
Well, V-Rod Muscle starts at $16589, Diavel starts at $19000 (both prices from HD and Ducati websites, $CDN) Apex in Waterloo has them for quite a bit less.
For $900 more, it's not even close as to which I'd buy. So, there's a $2.5K difference to start with. Now, to get the V-Rod hopped up a bit (which the Duc in no way needs), you're going to spend $2K easy on pipes and a tune. Still no where near the performance of the Duc...
No comparison if you ask me.
You're comparing the "upgraded" VROD with the "low graded" Diavel. You're trying to prove a point that doesn't exist. Also, I have no idea where your $900 dollars is coming from.
Somebody's got their panties in a knot today. Maybe Apex suggesting a lower price to me because I know the owner a bit (not well though), but please, don't insinuate I'm a liar.FYI, I can't argue your Apex price because they don't even have one on their website. So you can make up whatever number you want to try and justify your case.
Ah, now I see why we're being defensive. You're emotionally involved because you own a VROD. (same as minor sports - people can't referee teams or players that they are related to in several different ways). Now, please, don't take that out context - I'm using that as an example. I'd react the same way about my Buell 1125r if someone started slackjawing it.I'm not disputing it's a fantastic bike. If I have the money and didn't love my VROD, I'd consider buying one. And it's ok to love the bike and justify if however you want, however don't try and make up some story about "they are basically the same price" when they quite clearly aren't.
Not discrediting the VROD - it's the only HD I would ever consider buying (and I bought my Buell after HD shut them down, so it doesn't count... hehehehe.... )And you can stage 1 a VROD for about $1200 bucks if you do it right. Again not saying it will make it a Diavel, just get your facts straight about a bike you're trying to discredit before you post it up and try to make up stuff that just ain't true.
My bad. forgot to erase the $900 part when composing the message. As for Up vs. Low grade, I'm trying to make the point that even with upgrades, the HD is still nowhere near the Duc in any fashion.

As for my "basically same price" -- I guess I should have clarified - again, my mistake. A VROD with a whack of upgrades still doesn't compare to the basic Diavel (compare any numbers or reports). I rolled the price of upgrades into my basic train of thought - and as above, should have clarified.
