Introduced in 2001, the VRSC family bears little resemblance to Harley's more traditional lineup. Competing against Japanese and American muscle bikes and seeking to expand its market appeal, the "V-Rod" makes use of an engine developed jointly with Porche that, for the first time in Harley history, incorporates full injection, overhead cams, and liquid cooling.

Nice topic. I think everyone should post this types of history topic in this forum. As me many of us don't know about the history of this motorcycles. Thanks dude...

Yes. I also think that. Because i also don't know any history about it. But now i come to know it.

For me, i think history is not so important. I just consider the style and condition of the bike.
