gizmo666 Posted June 2, 2013 Posted June 2, 2013 well folks the question was once asked what would be better the xvs or the xv i have now found out the answer THE XVS is way better thats why my xv535 is now on gumtree lol spent a small fortune doing it up but it just does'nt have the same grunt as the xvs got someone coming to see it tomorrow i already got my eye on a honda hornet but who knows what i'll get next lol
EazyDuz Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 The 535 has a faster acceleration and top speed yet you think the XVS has more grunt? Just a lower revving motor
Noise Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Im with Gizzy on this, the XVS is a much better bike. Better looks, better motor (albeit near enough the same) The XV535 just suits tassels studs and all things ugly Just my opinion

Noise Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Ha ha, im not going to get into another one of them threads with saying things about the viggies, But yes I agree with that the draggy is a very close hardly look alike but imo the viggies look horrid. Sorry ha ha
gizmo666 Posted June 3, 2013 Author Posted June 3, 2013 the draggie is better end of discussion haha anyway i'm hoping to get a harley next lol
Noise Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Good on you gizz, id love to get a hardly too some day. Just need the wonga
clarke Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Bunch of slack jawed faggots round 'here Riding an XVS makes you a sexual tyranasaur...
Toutsuite Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 which Hardley model does the draggie mimic? I've always thought the viggie looks squashed length wise.
Noise Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 which Hardley model does the draggie mimic? I've always thought the viggie looks squashed length wise. I guess it would be their softail model. very much a good look alike http://dummidumbwit.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/2005-harleydavidson-softailstandard-fxst1.jpg
Campaman Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Yup, and if you search for the Harley Softail Classic, you will see where the Dragstar Classics lines come from...
Ttaskmaster Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 The appeal of the Drag is that it's longer and flatter in profile compared to most Cruisers. Add in the Custom looks and you have a sort of 80s image that still looks pretty good today... and the main reason I dislike most other Cruisers. I was pretty upset that Yammie did not continue with a Custom look for the newer lot, but hey ho - Their loss. The Viggie does indeed look squished, but it's designed for smaller riders anyway. You can alter a couple of bits to dramatically change the appearance. I saw a Viggie once with small twin headlights, straight flat bars and outrigged footpegs - Looked mean as fuck!! Tassles and studs can fuck right off, along wth shiny chrome. They are for girls. My old Cruiser was kept so dirty and un-prettified, you'd swear it was half-rat!! Just the new one that's shiny and that's only because I needed to service it.
Toutsuite Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Agree about the tassles; I think one can get away with a few studs and some chrome. But it is certainly possible to cross the line into the realm of camp.
mailee Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 But I love my Viggie 750, boo hoo. No tassles though That is just not cool. Love chrome though. I AM a small rider though.
gizmo666 Posted June 5, 2013 Author Posted June 5, 2013 well it looks like it will be another draggie when i get the 535 sold the harley i was looking at gone now and the xvs is deffinatly better than an xv so it is written........................
Ttaskmaster Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Nowt wrong with the Viggie... even the 535s! If you think the Viggie is ugly, you simply ain't put the right mods on
Noise Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 If you think the Viggie is ugly, you simply ain't put the right mods on What like Tassels and Studs
EazyDuz Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 What like Tassels and Studs Tassels and studs only suit big gay bear Harley look-a-likes like the Dragstar
