Harley Davidson VRSCAW/A V-Rod (2008)

The 2008 Harley-Davidson VRSCAW V-Rod embodies the spirit of raw power and uncompromising performance.

Underpinning this beast is a 1250cc liquid-cooled Revolution V-Twin engine, capable of unleashing 121 peak horsepower and 84 ft.-lbs. of torque onto its massive 240mm rear tire.

Riding the VRSCAW is an exhilarating experience, with forward controls and pull-back handlebars providing an aggressive stance and precise control.

As you twist the throttle, the engine’s Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection (ESPFI) system delivers a seamless torrent of power, while the dual overhead cams and four-valve heads work in harmony to extract every last drop of performance from this mighty V-Twin.

The result is a truly unforgettable riding experience that will leave even the most seasoned enthusiasts breathless.

The VRSCAW V-Rod is not just a motorcycle – it’s an unbridled expression of freedom, power, and pure, unadulterated exhilaration.
