Harley-davidson Vrscf V-rod Muscle
The Harley-davidson Vrscf V-rod Muscle has a top speed of 210 km/h, produces 122 hp and weighs 295 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.
Harley-Davidson VRSCF V-Rod Muscle був представлений у 2009 році як більш агресивний, м'язистий варіант лінійки V-Rod, який сам дебютував у 2001 році як перший серійний мотоцикл Harley з рідинним охолодженням, розроблений у співпраці з Porsche Engineering. V-Rod Muscle відрізнявся ширшим стилем задньої частини, 240-мм задньою шиною та більш страхітливою позицією, розробленою для того, щоб сподобатися молодшій демографічній особі, орієнтованій на продуктивність. Він вироблявся до 2017 року, коли Harley припинив роботу всієї родини V-Rod, щоб переорієнтуватися на інші сегменти.

Що повинні знати покупці
Revolution Engine Reliability
The 1250cc Revolution V-Twin was co-developed with Porsche and is known for exceptional reliability when maintained properly. Unlike traditional air-cooled Harleys, it runs cooler and cleaner thanks to its liquid-cooling system.
Strong Resale Value
The V-Rod Muscle holds its value better than many cruisers due to its limited production run — Harley discontinued the entire V-Rod line after 2017. Collector interest is growing, making well-maintained examples increasingly desirable.
Watch for Regulator Issues
A known weak point is the voltage regulator/rectifier, which can fail and cause charging problems or battery drain. Always verify the charging system is functioning correctly before purchasing a used example.

"The best performance Harley ever built, criminally undervalued used."
$7,500-$13,000 usedThe V-Rod Muscle is Harley's most un-Harley motorcycle, and that's exactly why it's brilliant. That 1250cc Revolution engine — co-developed with Porsche — pulls hard from 3,000rpm and keeps pulling well past where most V-twins run out of breath. It sounds different, runs cooler than air-cooled Harleys, and genuinely handles. Buy one between 2009-2017 and you're getting a mature, sorted machine. Inspect the front forks carefully — they can leak on higher-mileage examples — and always check the rear tire width; those 240-section rubber gets expensive fast. Used prices have actually softened recently because mainstream Harley buyers still don't know what to do with it. That's your opportunity. Parts availability is decent, independent mechanics can work on it without drama, and reliability is genuinely strong. One honest warning: the riding position is aggressive and low. Taller riders above 6'2" will cramp up on longer rides. For shorter stints though, it's spectacular. Don't overthink it — just buy a clean one.
