I was watching a special on the development of the V-Rod and heard that the engine was developed jointly by HD and Porsche and was even tested on dynos at the Porsche facilities in Germany.. I know the Vrod has been out for awhile I just didn't catch it the first time I saw the special. A two wheel Porsche maybe, but its water cooled.

Next year you will be able to buy a hot rod Ford Pickup with the V-Rod logo on the side. It will be red or Yellow kind of like the black Harley version now. What a gimmick.
