    Bad Boy Customs turns the V-Rod into a true muscle machine

    The Harley-Davidson V-Rod is one of the most distinctive muscle cruisers ever built.

    With its water-cooled engine, low center of gravity and bold styling, it became a favorite base for custom builders worldwide. Among them, Germany’s Bad Boy Customs has made a name by transforming V-Rods into aggressive, performance-oriented machines with striking presence and refined details.

    In this article, we highlight the best Bad Boy Customs V-Rod builds featured on DarkKustom.com — each one a unique expression of power, aesthetics and customization craft.
