Glad I found your channel just subscribed 👍🏻 I have a 13 Muscle and I love it. I think your future mods will make your bike unique and look forward to seeing what you do wish you all the best 🤘🏻
WOW! LOVE the v-rod a friend of mine had one and loved it. GOOD thing you let off just in case that was a cop!!! LOL I am looking forward to seeing the changes.
I like ya intro man nice......And get to know the bike is smart man ...that plug and play LED kit looks as cool as .......The Modifications will be cool to see...stay safe and next time.
The Kenny Roger's episode!!!! Vrods are motorcycles I know nothing about but I always was curious about, I felt like HD missed the opportunity to create a high speed touring motorcycle using the Vrod power plant.
I loved that episode! And yes they missed the mark then, BUT they do have another chance with the new 1250 Revo Max out of the Pan America. If they could find a way to offer both a traditional harley motor and a performance edition, we could have the best of both worlds.
I can't wait to see all the mods you do mate. I like biltwell o/s tracker bars with the internal slots to hide the wires. I am seriously excited to see the finished results. Great video mate
Ghost Ryder Customs has some nice stuff for the VRods.I got my side tag mount from them really nice piece.I have an 05 VRod and i also went with that under fender brake light,but i didnt get the tag mount and it looks sick and cleans the ass end up and shows off that back tire.
Love the sound of the V-Rod on acceleration!! One aspect of riding that I love, is that it’s a continuous work in progress. It’s only done when it’s time to sell. Cheers
Oh nice! Yea mine already has that so you didn’t upgrade anything inside of the inverted forks just the inverted forks? If so it’s much cheaper endeavor than I thought. Haahah
The V-Rod is pretty good, but I see why you want to make some changes. I use a very similar GoPro set up on my V-rod...I thought Night Rod meant it has a black frame? Mine is a night rod, and it has a good mix of black and chrome...back to the video. I'm thinking 14" apes would really look great! 😀😀 The headlight is awful..I added Custom Dynamics turn lights...also work as running lights. Good stuff, brother!
So yes, the night rod is the blackened frame, but the anniversary is just a chromed out version of the Night Rod Special. All the parts are shared, just a different color. I'm not sure about APES on this bike, I like the drag style but it might make it handle a bit better.
Good list! My first Harley was a VROD muscle. Really hard to customize with Harley add-ons, because they hardly made any accessories. I ended up finding a great metal guy and he fabricated a windscreen and passenger butt stop and luggage rack for me. I changed out the front pegs with Kuryakyn’s winged pegs that folded in and out for extra foot placement points. I turned it into a great touring bike. I miss that bike but my CVO is a nicer daily driver. Pete
Oh no doubt, a CVO or any tourer is gonna be a dream compared to the vrod, which in its own right, for me is super comfortable. I found a couple companies such as altered state that make some nice aesthetics but parts are a burden to come by. Luckily I don’t plan to change much as I like her how she is, just needs some more rumble and couple small things!
One downside to my bike is that aftermarket parts to customize it aren't very plentiful. The flip side of that coin is that aftermarket parts aren't very plentiful which means I'm not tempted to modify it 😂 I like that tai light, it really looks good how it blends into the fender.
HAHAHA thats quite the conundrum then huh? Yea, most of the things listed beyond this video are custom and pricey.... and I'm broke at the moment hahaha.
@@ChopperFett I tried. Told her this weekend that paired with my new air filter, exhaust and a tune would make it run more efficient. haha It will happen eventually.
Trust me Rouge Rider turn signal lights, which are fantastic, contrast in color does have a domino effect to buying a new headlight and passing lights.
Instead of relocating the foot controls and adding some pegs at the mid would be pretty good. It would also give you the option to stand and stretch your legs completely if need be.
Yep the controls will stay at the front, just the pegs in the midset location. The problem the parts are no longer made and you have to find one off a salvaged bike... could take a while to source it all!
What concerns me about the cheap Amazon LEDs is it’s not like a car. If we have our headlight go out we are screwed. I’d like to see some long term / endurance tests vs the things like the $$$$ Daymaker.
Good points on this! From what I read (since making this video) is the Amazon is prone to leaking... which is not ideal HAHAH. I'll probably end up with the Hogworks!
Before you dismiss me, just hear me out on my idea. Club style v-rod and be a part of the 12 o'clock boys. . No? Ok...still think it was a cool idea 😂.
But but but then I would have TWO club style bikes... how many clubs do I need. I actually like the drag bars drag look so I'll probably keep them pretty low.

Those are some good ideas...I especially like the rear turn signal mod...
Good video too... The clips were spot on!
Thank you! I'm trying to keep her classy!
@The Screaming Chicken oh...you misunderstand...ChopperFett paid through the nose for Chyna....no giveaways in this household LOL
Excited to see the build come together.
Thanks man! Gotta keep up with all ya'lls builds hahaha
awesome Chopper !!!! getting stuff the way we like is whats its all about. hope you get to chase this weekend.
Just a whole bunch of rain this weekend unfortunately. Hope yours was better than me!
@@ChopperFett ya we go that too come on sun for us both . enjoy the day
Very cool! Looking forward to see the upgrades.
Thanks man, gotta keep up with the Joneses (you lol) ahahaha.
Glad I found your channel just subscribed 👍🏻 I have a 13 Muscle and I love it. I think your future mods will make your bike unique and look forward to seeing what you do wish you all the best 🤘🏻
Thanks for stopping by Charlie. Sadly I just sold the Vrod back to my dad. Great bike just made sense for both of us.
WOW! LOVE the v-rod a friend of mine had one and loved it. GOOD thing you let off just in case that was a cop!!! LOL I am looking forward to seeing the changes.
Thank you! I am so wary of cops on those country roads!
Hey Gurl, fancy meeting you here!
P.
awee man, that contrast in the lights is pretty significant, lol.
i like that LED Kit, that'll look slick!
Thanks man! I just scripted out a great video concept thanks to your little magnet device. Hope to film it this weekend
Very cool! One day I will have a V-Rod. It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine....
Maybe I'm seeing things, but everytime I see your intro, it looks like a yellow VROD
@@ChopperFett You are correct sir! Fiverr did very well with that!
Always a work in progress. Never say "this is the last mod I will make " LOL I love chrome
Hahahah Never say Never! Thanks Kev!
I like ya intro man nice......And get to know the bike is smart man ...that plug and play LED kit looks as cool as .......The Modifications will be cool to see...stay safe and next time.
Thanks man, I'm sure you see your fair share of these down there, pretty popular from what I gathered.
Im excited to see the progress of the modifications.
Thanks man! See you got a new one posted! Will check that out today!
Thumbs up bro sounds like a plan looking forward to seeing when you get done take care catch you later brother
Thank you kind sir!!!
I like the look of the fender eliminator on the V-Rods. Your bike is going to look amazing for sure. 🤘💀
Thanks man! That might be the first one!
Thanks man! Just became 46 if ya catch my drift. Check ya out later!
@@ChopperFett I got it lol
I can't remember my number for you, I know it's under 1k lol. Thank you, I appreciate it
look forward to following your progress with this bike. -c
Thanks man! Looking forward to seeing yours on the channel as well!
@@ChopperFett struggling with content at the moment as my day job is starting to pick up a bit.
Excellent video riding motorcycle thank you for sharing
Thank you so much! Your content is rocking too!

Thanks man! Hope you are staying well out there!
Great intro, very professional, new friend here, stay connected and more importantly stay blessed, hope to see you soon 🙏👍
Likewise my friend! Stay Well!
Going to look good. Can't wait.
Thanks so much Larry! I can't either, my bank account says otherwise.
Sounds like a good plan for the bike. That rear fender kit looks really awesome.
I know right? I just have to decide do I put the plate under it orrrrrrrr to the side off the swing arm
Vrod was so ahead of its time for HD. You're doing a good job enjoying your bike. That's what it's all about.
Thank you! I wish it wasnt discontinued but I think its days were numbered, like the Dynas, when they shut down the KC Plant.
HD Platform lows for tons of customization. Have fun with it and make it your own.
Thanks brother! Keep up the great work on the channel! It's really soaring!
I can't wait to see all the mods you do mate. I like biltwell o/s tracker bars with the internal slots to hide the wires. I am seriously excited to see the finished results. Great video mate
Those are great bars, I actually have those sitting on my work bench for the dyna haaha.
Ghost Ryder Customs has some nice stuff for the VRods.I got my side tag mount from them really nice piece.I have an 05 VRod and i also went with that under fender brake light,but i didnt get the tag mount and it looks sick and cleans the ass end up and shows off that back tire.
The rear of this bike is truly something else ain’t it. I bet having the tag to the side to see the rear tire is beautiful.
Sounds like a good plan on the mods.
Thank you, the purchasing has already begun haha
Love the sound of the V-Rod on acceleration!! One aspect of riding that I love, is that it’s a continuous work in progress. It’s only done when it’s time to sell. Cheers
So true, but it is so hard for me to sell I might just keep them all hahaa
@@ChopperFett I know what you mean !!
Biggest improvement I made to my Nightrod was to the front and rear suspension. Good list 🤘🏻
The rear suspension (yours) would cost I think as much as my whole mod list provided, BUT... that suspension might be best bang for the buck.
@@ChopperFett changed the front end to upside down suspension from the later models and handles brilliantly even with the 300 on the rear 👍🏻
Oh nice! Yea mine already has that so you didn’t upgrade anything inside of the inverted forks just the inverted forks? If so it’s much cheaper endeavor than I thought. Haahah
@@ChopperFett just updated the front and changed the rears to Progressive 490 👍🏻

@@ChopperFett ahhhh, thanks for clarifying!! Yeah, maybe the apes would be a bad idea! 😳😳
Love doing mods on the bike, the led headlight seems to be a popular mod for bikes, will be a fun project 😃👍
For sure, I did just place an order for one! Hope its here by the weekend!
Good list!

How do I send you a couple pics of my old VRod? Might have to get The Artist to send thru FB

Love the sound of the exhaust. 👍🏻 List sounds pretty good to me. Those rear turn signals would be real clean looking.
Thanks! Dad gave me another set of gutted stock pipes I'm gonna slip on. I like my exhausts louder!!
@@ChopperFett I would love to get more volume outta mine but the Mrs is not onboard with it. Yet. I'll get her there eventually. haha
@@NVARider just say it’ll get you better gas mileage.
@@ChopperFett I tried. Told her this weekend that paired with my new air filter, exhaust and a tune would make it run more efficient. haha It will happen eventually.
Hi... Where did you get the chrome cowl mask from? looks amazing.
It’s a stock item number on the 2012 anniversary edition for sure
@@ChopperFett Thanks for the quick response ..... I will try and get one for my bike
Trust me Rouge Rider turn signal lights, which are fantastic, contrast in color does have a domino effect to buying a new headlight and passing lights.
Yea those RRI turn signals are fabulous! I just ordered the headlight to match, couldn't take it any more hhaaha.
Instead of relocating the foot controls and adding some pegs at the mid would be pretty good. It would also give you the option to stand and stretch your legs completely if need be.

@@ChopperFett Lol. I was just joshing. Yeah I think the vrod looks best nice and low to the ground.
I've ruined 3 videos this past month because of audio! lol
Oh no! That's the worst! I know what bike you got but I'm about to go check out that reveal video brother!
Great video but it would be better without all the random clips added
Hahaha thanks for that. Sadly part of my charm lol.
My hogworx is badass
