- Concept motorcycles often remain in ink and paper form, but the wild V-Rex cruiser leapt off the page and into production and now MotorcycleUSA takes a ride. Read the entire review on the Traverston V-Rex: www.motorcycle-...

I have always dreamed of owning a bike that "cornered adequately" before it started grinding off bits and pieces.
His enthusiasm is contagious!
1:53
@k9forkids wrong, Porsche did the optimization and mass production preparation. The engine was designed in HD USA as VR1000. Harley is cooperating with Porsche since Evolution. Guess who had the "great" idea of silent chains in twincam 88?
co smiales sie jak go zobaczyles? do lez albo do rozpuku? :)
jest moze troche dziwny ale nie smieszny
I hear many of you complain about this bike not being good because it's an American design. The designer/3D modeler is actually Australian. Someone actually had the drive to turn a friend's Lightwave 3D model into a real machine, that alone is admirable and proof of what a person with imagination and resources can do. Not everybody has to like it, but it really sucks when people judge a bike based on the country it comes from. We know you hate us, get over it Europa.
So, is it street legal? I saw the brake light located at the bottom of the seat, but I didn't saw any turn signals.
Looks pretty sweet? Where can I buy one? Or is this still in concept stage?
Do you have it in black
It have chain or shaft drive system??
So the price is?
So, if the owner needed upgrades or even maintenance and repair work done, would he be S.O.L.?
That bike is gorgeous. I think I know what I want I ask Santa for this Christmas.
price? looks to be expensive
Which one?
There is one on youtube somewhere, saw it a couple of weeks ago.
Yes, YEs ,YES! The xs11 was the killer of its day, and still rules! Long live tha Yamahammer! I want an XSeleven!
Exclusive front suspension setup? it might be different form bimota's setup but it is hardly exclusive. and whats with the porsche v-rod motor? american muscle it is not.
The T-Rex is not ugly - it is stunning. I do question its cornering ability, but it would probably be great on most US roads. Even so, would it ever equal the ride of the Bimota Tesi 3D - doubtful.
@FMMProductions This shows that the niche motorcycle industry is in good health. The world would be shit without people with ambition, cutting the mustard, showing the establishment what they can do. The world needs those kind of people; crazy and intelligence is a unique combo.
A 1250cc Revolution Engine is not a "Big Bore" V-Twin.
Как называется такая передняя подвеска?🙏🏻
@GrumpyBlack Yeah. No loss of SUCK. lol But the real burning question? Does it have a Dyson Ball, or at least a pair of them?
@GuitarMasterGraeme You're right, it's wide enough for a viper, but the curve still makes it a bike tire... IMO, there is no point to a tire that size on a bike other than styling. And looking at the way that bike leans, style is what you are buying here.
It is a damn pretty bike.
Wow that is one sweet bike
Impresionante la Moto!! muy buena!
@Vid
I think the bike looks sharp for the most part as far as design goes. The only thing that gets me is the handle bars.
Nice looking bike.
what do youm mean by that
A very interesting futuristic bike. Would I buy one? No-but I do think that this bike would turn heads!
i love this thing, dont know if could hold it up though:)
good for him....im sticking to my 250
@zDAVEYHAWKINSz
Wasn't this designed by a French guy??
was that a rear drum break? yuk
One wheel in New York and the second one in San francisco.. I would like to see what happens at the first bend!!
wait i dont get it how is it bad
Remember kids, if your going to buy one of these, keep it in the environment it was designed for.
Do NOT let it near rain, corners or Europe !
yep,it doesnt matter how it looks like its still air cooled cruiser. probably designed for customers who s gonna buy it just because it looks different.
@NuttersForFraggle not very considering its 670 lbs with a 1250cc engine :\
and there are things more important about bikes than just speed
It could be ugly but I don't know. They cut the video every time before you get a full view !
I've watched it twice and I still have no idea what it actually looks like !!
please put all the tail fender, I want to ride it in rainy days too..........
If you wanted to make a cartoonish Kawasaki cruiser, I would imagine this is what you would end up with!
Looks like a shaft drive, but then theres a chainguard above it, which makes it look like one or the other is redundant, the cowling on the swingarm or the chain!
I can imagine on anything but a freeway you would be going through 4 sets of footpegs a week, since their clearance will give you the turning circle of a rhino, making every turn a close shave with the kerb or another scraped peg!
@DzAble95 Yeah.the Harleys All are.
Owen, if you had listened, you would've heard that IT IS NOT A V-TWIN..it is a water cooled V-rod engine....and it is the coolest bike to ride....but you wouldn't know that...you dont have one.....
Sounds like Adam Waheed!
very cool bike i wanna hav it ...its the interpretation of a next generation chopper !
"You get more questions then a Tom Cruise on Opera"
lol
so, after skipping through this video, hearing the sound, and getting a few glimpses of it, it seems that they just put more body pieces around a chopper's engine and open frame parts to make it look like a street-bike mashup
I think it looks cool.
I love these new generation of niche market motorcycles that lo9ok different from the mass produced stuff. Im not knocking against mass produced bikes as they are more everyday than these 2 wheeled babes .I recently ordered an Estonian bike called the Renard GT which has a Moto Guzzi V twin. Fucking epic.
@chevroletman48 well you should know you got the Yuppeeeeee evo's .don't leak oilllllll
omg is that a car tyre on the back? ^_^
Nice!!
Wow just because its different doesn't make it ugly
lmao yea it sounded as if the guy speaking was reading everything off a sheet of paper for the first time
OK, I have got M109R but this is just.... WoW
@jojothedog1234 built in america which btw is the only way to go...designed in Australia if you could pay attention.
Why would you put the German made V-Rod engine in such a cool bike with incredible potential The V-Twin engine is old old news. A bike like this should have a nice dependable and incredibly fast engine.
nice idea!
half Chopper, half Motobike :D
Great bike Man!
Lets try something differnt. "Hay nice bike" it may look differnt but this is how style change starts. Ten years from now this may be the design of choice.
Someone with a open mind designed it .
hell i like it!
Now we're talking!
@SaltLife750 well .Harleys are OIl..Co
I think it looks aight! I mean its different..and the same... its not bad!
I saw this on the trip to Vietnam. Yes Vietnam.
I love the way they describe it's handling. Adequate in the corners doesn't really make me feel to safe. If radical means totally stupid looking then I agree. Did the guy doing the voice over just wake up?
TRANSFORMERS!!
my thoughts exactly :))
Looks like it was designed by the Dyson vacuum dude
ur entitled to ur opinion but i for one like the bike. but i agree it being expensive, but i would take a American bike over a import to help the economy
yeah -- it looks like the antakatherium (spelling) mechanism on steriods - only not NEAR as usefull.
did anybody notice that they didnt really show a proper shot of the bike???
And what was with the blury image at the start, thats and old photographers trick of smearing the camera lens with vaseline!!!! cos it so fugly
let's keep it at concept.
Isn't this a basic Harley chop and bolt-on bike? Looks like it rides almost too low to lean. Betcha it's peg scraper.
no its not... i mean unless your not a power ranger
Bet it handles like a shopping trolley
whats the price? too much, im sure. we need more small cheap bikes like the ones in the
60s and 70s. I dont want to go faster, i want to go cheaper! who needs another 5 or 6 year payment book????
loud exhaust= stupid. Bike design= boring. It's heavy just like any 2 wheeled death machine, so I'm still happy with an old cbr900+ thank you.
It's nice and American -- 3 and half stars
I like it's looks. However I think the commentator should've practiced his lines a few more time before posting. Bit cheezy too!
@r1richie true...
weaternpi also makes me proud to be an American.
wow the voice of the reviewer almost made me fall sleep
@WeeRyzobhoy that would be.....yes
Just like a Harley you have to open the throttle all the way before it moves
@chevroletman48 and?
Really cool bike! and if it was closer to
20k I'ld be all about! But def. NOT worth 50k. Sweet bike though!
That's a Bike I'd ride!
wooow.. thats cool :o
WOOT WOOT! Designed by an aussie!! WOOT WOOT! But this thing looks pretty cool. Kinda weird.. but cool.
Yeah, all that time and effort creating an "engineering marvel", and there's no way it can go around a corner at anything other than a crawl. Defeats the purpose of a motorcycle, to me. I"ll stick with my 1098 :)
and then they say that 1098S is difficult to ride... that shit is heaviest, uncomfortable and slower....
Kind of has the BigWheel look :D
If it were anything other than the VROD engine from HD I'd say it was just shiny junk. The price vs the value is insane
I like the back but the front not so much
at 0:50 it looks like predator(you know that creature from the movie) with goggles
Not too pretty is it?
Is Prime-Time Sam Roberts narrating this video?
i think its a good bike...
It's not my cup of tea (waiting for a Veritech Cyclone ;) ), but it's cool to see people going way outside of the box. I love the morons who haven't even sat on it who say it's uncomfortable. lol
I was liking it until I found out that it has a Harley-Davidson engine.
