So Harley Davidson has the best and fastest motor ever made by Harley "The Revolution Motor". And we have the birth of the VROD - VRSC V-Twin-Racing-Street-Custom. Then all the different models, Muscle, Night Rod, Street Rod, Destroyer... Then they drop the line and return to the standard ever so SLOW Harley motors and just keep raising the cubic inches, but still no HP.
Then they jump back to the Revolution Motor with the Revolution 2 a better motor then the VROD's. Higher compression (VROD 11.3:1 REV2 13:1) more HP VROD 120-140 REV2 150 HP and they put it in a dirt bike (Pan American)!
Now they put the Revolution 2 it in a street bike!
And just like always they blow it :( they lower the HP to 120 and put it in a Sportster! So it may or may not be faster then a VROD depending on the VROD model. It has pipes that will be right on your butt while riding, it has a THREE GALLON GAS TANK. I can almost deal with the ugly engine for the speed. But 3 gallon tank, tiny sportster and $14,999 price tag and one can only think HD has lost their mind again.
They did say they will be releasing more models with the REV2 motor. We can only hope there will be one in the $20 rage with real power, lower pipes, nicer headlights...
Your opinions are always welcome
