Harley Davidson V Rod Two Wheeler Insurance

Harley Davidson V-Rod

General Information:

Initially launched back in 2009, the V-Rod was considered a breakthrough product in Harley Davidson’s product history, as it was equipped with a liquid cooled engine rather than a conventional air cooled setup. The V-Rod is a tasteful blend of imposing and modern looks and respectable power figures. It is often regarded as one of the most hard core motorcycles ever built under the HD umbrella.

Design:

• With its contemporary looks and modern design language, the V-Rod easily stands out from a crowd of classic Harleys
• The bike gets a simple face, that comprises of a well integrated headlamp, spread out rear view mirrors, and low rise handlebars
• The rear gets a fastback type tail section, while a fat rear tyre make the bike’s squat look impressive
• The side profile depicts the sheer length of the bike, and is accentuated by an all-black chassis, massive v-twin block, and dual exhaust pipes
• The V-Rod is an eye ball magnet, partly due to its massive dimensions of 2440 mm x 905 mm x 1075 mm (L x W x H)

Power & Performance:

Despite its massive size and scale topping weight, the V-Rod has been supplied with sufficient number of horses by the massive V-Twin engine, that makes the bike feel peppy across a wide range of rpms.

Braking & Handling:

With a weight of more than 300 kgs, the bike is a pain to ride in stop-go traffic

• Moreover, the long wheelbase and lower ground clearance result in the bike kissing each and every larger speed breaker in its way
• The highly comfortable and wide seats provide an immense support during longer hauls, which is further aided by the forward set foot pegs and aptly located handle bars
• The 300 mm front and rear disc brakes do their job without causing much drama, while the wide and large tires provide ample grip even under wet conditions

What To Opt For:

While buying a premium motorcycle like the V-Rod, the advantages of an Anti-Theft package should be duly studied upon

• A zero-depreciation insurance is highly recommended as the bike comes equipped with the massive engine and high cost powertrain parts
• Opting for a comprehensive cover is an essential practice one should follow, regardless of the type of vehicle he/she is going for
