Certainly don't look like no Harley engine!!! Sorry unsure as I don't know harley from a hole in the ground, but that's gotta be the V-Rod engine, correct?

For a bike that is going to cost at least $20 grand you'd think they could spend more than 38 cents on their website! Specs are listed below. Outside of the question with the engine the suspension and brakes are worth drolling over.



The Engine: The 1250sc is powered by
a 180HP, specially developed supercharged
version of the HarleyDavidson* 1250cc
Revolution* engine. State of the art
supercharger technology has been applied,
providing reliable high power output with a
broad, linear power delivery.


The Chassis: A unique modular CrMo steel
and aluminum frame has been developed.
This frame uses these two materials at
area's in which their material characteristics
are best suited.
The result is a stiff, light weight structure
that provides unparalleled steering
response and feedback.
The bike: The Roehr 1250sc is The
American Performance Machine.
The combination of a state of the art 180hp
supercharged engine with an innovative
BiMetal composite beam frame, creates the
ulimate combination of power, performance
and beauty.

Yes, I think it's the engine H-D uses in the V-Rod. It's a Harley engine but it was developed for H-D by Porsche. I saw another article on this bike that suggested the price was going to be in the neighborhood of $38K

If you click on the ordering page you'll get "I would like to place my order and deposit for the V-Roehr 1250SC Superbike.". Now if we substitute a Indian motor for that Hardley mill we'll have the iRoehr ! :poke

Looks like a pretty cool machine. will be interesting to see how the claims actually stack up to other bikes. especially on the track. For 38k that thing better keep up with a 1098s.

I actually kind of like it!

Am I the only one that reads "Roehr" and thinks of Big Gay Al from South Park?
