Harley Davidson VRSCDX Night Rod Special (2014 – 2015)

The Harley-Davidson VRSCDX Night Rod Special is a dark and sinister power cruiser that embodies the spirit of rebellion. Its four-stroke, 60-degree V-twin engine pulses with raw energy, delivering an intoxicating rush of torque to every rider.

The bike’s aggressive styling is evident in its blacked-out frame, handlebar, front fork, triple clamps, and covers – all designed to evoke a sense of uncompromising drag strip attitude. The inverted front forks and retuned rear suspension work in harmony to provide an exhilarating ride experience.

Whether carving up city streets or devouring open roads, the Night Rod Special is a force to be reckoned with – its ultra-fat 240mm rear tire gripping the pavement with sticky precision as it unleashes explosive power.
