The Harley-Davidson VRSC (V-Twin Racing Street Custom) family of cruiser motorcycles was introduced in 2001 in a single model called the V-Rod. The V-Rod was developed by Harley-Davidson to compete against Japanese and American muscle bikes. The V-Rod made use of the Revolution engine developed jointly with Porsche that for the first time in Harley public production history features overhead cams and liquid cooling. The V-Rod is visually distinct from other Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
