HD V- ROD Night Rod Special

NIGHT ROD SPECIAL
Massive power meets cutting-edge technology for a nimble ride that takes dark to pitch black.

price :  $16,999 , rs 19,55,000




With its drag strip stance, Pro Stock pedigree and black-x-infinity color scheme, the Night Rod Special is the
nastiest bike in Harley-Davidson’s lineup. And unlike the Milwaukee manufacturer’s air-cooled offerings that are
more bark than bite, the liquid-cooled V-Rod packs a legitimate performance punch. With its 1250cc Revolution
V-twin delivering a claimed 125 horsepower and a fat, 240-width rear tire to put that power to pavement, this
V-Rod hits like a hammer out of the hole. For Harley haters who insist The Motor Company knows performance like
the Golden Arches know haute cuisine, the Night Rod Special is a Supersized helping of shut the hell up.





Though often overshadowed by Harley-Davidson’s more traditional offerings, the high-tech V-Rod lineup still sells
well. Especially the Night Rod Special that particularly attracts the young, under 35 “core competitive” customers
that Harley-Davidson wants so badly to lure away from competing brands. With this goal in mind, H-D design staff
tightened up the Night Rod Special for 2012 with sharper styling, better handling and more comfortable ergonomics
that make the black knight more attractive to an even wider range of riders.

This is the first aesthetic update since the V-Rod’s introduction 10 years ago. The original whale tail has been
binned in favor of a flat track-inspired “fastback” to show off more of that fat Michelin Scorcher rear tire. This
is topped with another of Harley-Davidson’s DOT-defying minimalist taillight designs and hung with a pared-down
license plate hanger. At the other end a reshaped headlight capped with a postage stamp-sized speed screen replaces
the old mini-bullet fairing. Every piece of trim is blacked out except for the brushed-steel muffler sleeves.
The result is a sleeker, faster, lighter-looking muscle bike.
