The Harley Davidson VR1000 was a highly
limited edition model created for homologation purposes. Just
50 VR1000s were built to allow the bike to run in the AMA Superbike
series.
Powered by a 1000 cc, 60 degree, V-twin with Weber fuel injection
developing 135 horsepower the Harley Davidson VR1000 was not
outstanding during its race career - although it was a credible
competitor for a manufacturer more used to making laid-back
cruisers.
The Harley Davidson VR1000 featured striking paintwork. One
side was painted in bright orange while the other side was finished
in gloss black.
