Went out riding with my friends and i swapped bikes for my buddies V-Max. HOLY ****! IT IS EVIL FAST!
 
Yeah they are! Someday I will have one sitting next to the XB... What year was it v-max was it?
 
I like the look of the v-max... However I did not know they only get 27mpg that is terrible!
 
Hard for me to call this ugly....as far as a cruiser goes anyway.

In the $20,000CDN range - not sure what difference the border will make. I love the look of it - can see how some people call it ugly but I'm into it.
 
I think it depends how you look at it. It's awesome for a cruiser, but pretty ugly for a fast bike. Because of that I choose to think of it as a really fast cruiser, and the ugly doesn't bug me so much.
 
It is so ugly it is cool. Love to have one and will some day but at 20000.00 here in Canada it will be a while. The new one is supposed to actually handle pretty well from what I read. The old ones were great as long as you didn't try to go around a corner
 
I like old school V-Maxs myself
that one looks chopper long in wheelbase..
awesome drag bike tho!
ya gotta love the shift light on it tho..lol

if your going to cheat thats one to do it with.just remember looks and speed isnt every thing.
 
It's a an 85-86? 10" stretch chain drive from shaft conversion, and a pretty significant rake. He's been building drag bikes for decades and this sucker is no slouch.

If your going to buy a cruiser Harley all the way. I'm from Minnesota and so I like Polaris and Victory, but they closed down their plant here in the U.S. and sent it to Mexico. I personally knew some people who lost their job's because of that, and so Victory is out of the question if I ever buy a cruiser.
