When is the last time you saw one of these for sale? Here’s a street version of a Harley Davidson VR1000 with only 4 factory miles on the odometer, formerly owned by Scott Parker. I was checking out the latest offerings on eBay and came across this beauty. It looks about as clean and original as they come. I have no idea how many of these were ever manufactured but I would think the term “limited production” really does apply here..
These weren’t very successful as racers but as an interesting piece of Harley Davidson history, they’re right up there.

Its too bad that Harley didn’t go this route with the v-rod engines. Think of the sporty-bikes, and sport-tourers they might have sold. Or not….
Ditto One wonders ?
These did get sold to the public…
… In Poland.
There were homologation rules that had to be met for AMA competition, and only a “production” bike that was available to the public was allowed in SB racing. The rules didn’t say where. They sold enough in Poland to be allowed. HD didn’t let the US DOT have one, and one can only assume on purpose.
Sturgis sure would be crazier if this was a big seller stateside, wouldn’t it.
This is just down the road from me. I’ll gladly go test ride it for anyone who’s too far away and report back.
