Was there a street version of the Destroyer made in 2007? Saw a video on youtube from a dealer in dallas. Claims it was a street version, had a "numbered engine", # 246/1400? Is this a real bike?

I assume it would be possible to take the engine out of a Destroyer and put it in a "stock" Vrod, but I'm not sure I'd want to ride it... :nervous: It would certainly be a handful to control on the street, since it's basically designed to run at WOT for <10 seconds. Have you ever HEARD a Destroyer run? They have one at the Barber Sports Museum here in Birmingham, AL, and will start it for the visitors on occasion. It is one wicked a$$ed motor...I'm sure it would be a blast to drive (on a dragstrip), but I'd probably chit my pants at the same time...
Maybe next year, Jerry. I've haven't been to Daytona since I was a wee little boy. However, my BSR's brother lives in Boca Raton, so we have an excuse to travel down in that direction next year :2vrolijk_21:
If you're ever up this way, or just passing through, be sure and check out the Barber Museum...4 stories of every kind of motorcycle imaginable, and some you can't even imagine. They have a state of the art machine shop to fabricate the parts they can't restore on the old bikes. The place is unreal, plus they have the AMA Superbike races there every spring, and now the Indy type cars as well. World class track...
I found the video on you tube where the dealer claims it's the street version.He is.... that's not a destroyer it's a VRSCX...

I think he's mis-informed.

Hey...that's Jorge's Bike!:2vrolijk_21:
Except, last time I saw a pic of Jorge's bike, it was mostly chrome... :2vrolijk_21:
It seems that I do recall that those models were numbered though, but certainly not the engine, as it was just a regular 1250CC Revolution.
How stoopid can a dealer be to not know the difference between that bike and a real Destroyer...the big A$$ed, 5 foot long wheely bar on the back end would be the first clue... ::)
