The chopper, over ten feet long, was built on a Pat Kennedy frame, with a 52 degree rake. It has a Dyna Wide Glide rear fender stretched 4 inches in width, a stretched peanut gas tank, BDL 4" open primary drive, prototype BDL rear disc brake, twin ISR 9" front disc brakes, S & S carburetor, Sampson shotgun exhaust, and hidden wiring. Originally, the bike had a remote starter, but because it drained the battery, Jim soon replaced that with a tiny button starter button on the handlebar.
The VRod is now owned by our friend Tom Powell.
In July, 2007, Willie G. Davidson was Grand Marshal at the Mid-Ohio Vintage Motorcycle Days. Joan was lucky enough to get "Willie G" to sign her Night Train.
