What nearly was. But wasn't.

Ah, the Mk1 V-Rod. I wanted one of these when they first came out. Saw one at the bike show; not so sure, but fancied trying one.

Couldn't get a test-ride, let alone buy one for love nor money. Which was a good job, cos I kinda went off them over the next few months; I really prefer the air-cooled big-twins. The following spring I put my money where my heart is.

But it was worth a look....



...and there were other distractions at the show....
