[QUOTE="jjsC6, post: 132641, member: 1589"] First of all, if you read more of the tests, the FJR has been tested below 11 seconds in the quarter, and the trap speeds are much higher. I've ridden a V-rod, and it's not nearly as fast as a FJR. And resale of Harleys is greatly exaggerated. What they don't tell you is that people buy Harleys for WAY over list because the dealer forces them to buy accessories in many cases (and I mean that literally). Then, the typical customer buys thousands of dollars worth of accessories on top of the original purhcase. Two years later the bike is worth about 2K less than new, but about 6K less than they have in it with accessories. Further, the V-Rod does not hold up like other Harleys. You can actually buy them new for less than list. Next, if I had been there, I would have called the guy on it. The customer is about to spend a lot of money - why let him be lied to? If a sales person is a liar, I have no trouble calling him out. [/QUOTE]
