NEW V-ROD MUSCLE HAS A CHISELED, POWER-CRUISER
PRESENCE
Three Liquid-Cooled V-Rod Models on 240 mm Rear Rubber for 2009
MILWAUKEE (July 22, 2008) – With sculpted bodywork stretched taut over a
powerful new physique, the 2009 VRSCF V-Rod Muscle rides its way onto the
Power Cruiser scene with a broad-shouldered presence. Gaping air scoops,
sweeping side-pipe exhaust and a huge rear tire spinning under a clean, clipped
fender speak to a contemporary, urban sense of style and performance. The
Muscle pushes the Harley-Davidson V-Rod platform into a new turf, where it
aims to hold its ground.
VRSC Key Features
1250cc Revolution V-Twin: Standard on all 2009 VRSC models, the 60-degree
Revolution 1250cc V-Twin is liquid-cooled and features Electronic Sequential
Port Fuel Injection (ESPFI), dual overhead cams, four-valve heads, and a five-
speed transmission. The engine is rubber-mounted in a hydroformed steel
perimeter frame. A shell covers the large-volume airbox located over the
engine. A five-gallon fuel tank is located below the seat on all VRSC models.
The engine is tuned to produce up to 125 hp at 8250 rpm and up to 85 ft-lbs. of
torque at 7000 rpm.
Optional ABS: Each VRSC model is available with optional, factory-installed
Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS). Designed to work in conjunction with high-
performance Brembo triple-disc brakes, this is the most advanced braking
system offered on any power cruiser. ABS is designed to help the rider
maintain control during braking events, especially those that happen in less-
than-optimal conditions. The components of the Harley-Davidson ABS have
been designed and packaged to be virtually invisible, preserving the uncluttered
styling of the area around the wheels. Unlike many motorcycle ABS, Harley-
Davidson ABS is not a linked system, meaning the rider maintains full,
independent control of both front and rear brakes.
New V-Rod Muscle
The wide, angular air-box cover and chopped tail section look as solid and
smooth as billet and give the new V-Rod Muscle lines that are clean and
powerful. The size of the massive 240 mm rear tire is accentuated by the new
broad, clipped and clean rear fender. The combination stop/tail/turn LED light
is tucked under the edge of the rear fender, and the side-mount license plate
leaves the fender surface smooth and uncluttered. Front-end styling balances
the rear, with a trimmed fender that’s blacked out behind satin-finished inverted
forks and LED turn signals integrated into the mirror stems. The radiator
shrouds are restyled and color-matched to the rest of the bodywork, while the
new airbox side covers incorporate air scoop inlets covered with woven wire
mesh. The silver five-spoke cast aluminum front and rear wheels are a new
design for the V-Rod line.
A new deep seat holds the rider firmly in place against the thrust of the
Revolution V-Twin engine. The Muscle features forward foot controls, and a
new handlebar with internal wiring. The handlebar is 1.5-inch cast aluminum
with tubular steel ends and integrated risers. Bold polished forged aluminum
triple clamps secure the inverted forks and frame the distinctive V-Rod
teardrop reflector optic headlamp, housed in a satin black bucket.
The long profile of a 34-degree fork rake is stretched visually by new
“sidepipe” dual exhausts in satin chrome with fat, turn-out mufflers exiting
behind the rear axle. The V-Rod Muscle is available in Vivid Black, Brilliant
Silver, Dark Blue Denim and Red Hot Sunglo.
