The king of muscle? That's held by Triumph's Rocket 3 roadster. It's faster than the V rod over the quarter; has a good sized tank; has more torque than God and will pull away in top from as low as 40kmh. The reviewer should be ashamed.
@MrScienceandReason Ummm....the "Rocket" can't be the "King of Muscle" as it doesn't have "muscle" in it's name. If you want to get technical (and you apparently do) the VRod will smoke both of them quite handily. The "King of Muscle" name was a play on words....something that you, an apparent Rocket 3 owner, must have missed completely. Might I suggest one of the drier and less interesting motorcycle websites/channels
just got mine, from uk, , all good , how long is run in, pipes don't get too hot, but matt satin , does polish off , don't use any polishes , apart from s100 and rinse straight away, also watch out for tar stickin to the pies , get it off straight away, koltonliveband on ytube

Sexyguy3391~ The pipes do get hot and if a passenger's shoe were to slip off the peg and touch them it would definitely leave a mark.
