2009 Harley Davidson VRSCDX Night
Rod Special
 
VRSCDX Night Rod Special
An all-black Revolution engine, fork legs, swingarm
and other blacked-out components give the VRSCDX Night
Rod Special a raw, street-tough attitude. A colour-matched
nacelle surrounds a round reflector-optic headlight.
The straight-shot dual mufflers have black end caps
and heat shields. Drag handlebars and forward foot
controls put the rider in an aggressive clam-shell
riding posture. A contrasting racing stripe paint
scheme traces the length of the bike. Black slotted
cast aluminium wheels have a fine orange stripe on
the rim. Available in Black Denim with Vivid Black
Racing Stripe, Vivid Black with Pewter Pearl Racing
Stripe, or Vivid Black with Mirage Orange Pearl Racing
Stripe.
