Before the VROD was introduced, there were lots of prototype "mystery" pictures that were "accidently" leaked. It looked like they were actually going to use a frame, suspension and brakes thay were more race inspired, or at least muscle bike designed. My interest was somewhat peaked. Then the cartoon designer wille g got his hands on it and made the chopper styled version with forward mounted controls and took cornering capability out of it. That lost my interest. With todays far more technical generation, can that many new buyers be interested in their grandpa's motorbike? People quit buying their "fathers oldsmobile" years ago.
