The Harley-Davidson V-Rod VIGGEN by ELVN Motorcycles is a study of speed, aerodynamics, and controlled aggression.

Built with intent and shaped by purpose, this custom V-Rod draws inspiration from flight while remaining firmly grounded in mechanical force. Every line suggests motion, and every component serves a function beyond aesthetics.

Named after both the thunderbolt (åskvigg) and the tufted duck (vigg), VIGGEN also carries the spirit of the legendary Saab fighter jet. Powerful, agile, and precise, the bike embodies a philosophy of restrained dominance—never excessive, never ornamental. This is not an aviation tribute, but a machine engineered to move with authority and clarity.

At its core, VIGGEN features a fully reworked chassis with a double swingarm configuration, enhancing stability and visual balance. Custom CNC-machined body components sharpen the bike’s aerodynamic profile, while the air ride suspension system allows precise control over stance and geometry, reinforcing both performance and presence.

The wheel setup pushes the V-Rod’s muscular identity to its limits, with an 18-inch front wheel wrapped in a 180 mm tire and a massive 18-inch rear wheel carrying a 360 mm tire. This wide stance anchors the bike visually and mechanically, emphasizing traction, control, and forward momentum.

Craftsmanship defines every touchpoint. A handcrafted solo seat reinforces the bike’s solitary character, designed for riders who move independently and without announcement. The Tap Performance Double Shortshot exhaust system completes the build, delivering a compact, aggressive tone that matches the bike’s controlled nature without relying on unnecessary noise.

VIGGEN is not about spectacle. It is about intention. Strength refined through restraint, speed expressed through form, and aggression disciplined by design. This Harley-Davidson V-Rod stands as a clear statement from ELVN Motorcycles—power, engineered with purpose.

The Harley-Davidson V-Rod Muscle “PARDUS” is a bold reinterpretation of one of the most radical platforms ever produced by Harley-Davidson.

Built as a brand-new, one-of-one commission for 2025, this motorcycle has been fully re-engineered from the ground up, transforming the original V-Rod Muscle into a statement of controlled power, precision engineering and understated dominance.

At its core, PARDUS is driven by a 1250 cc engine delivering 130 horsepower, paired with a 5-speed transmission that emphasizes raw torque and smooth, deliberate acceleration. The powertrain is not designed to shout, but to respond instantly, reinforcing the bike’s philosophy of strength through restraint. Every mechanical choice supports a riding experience that feels direct, purposeful and composed.

The chassis and geometry define the aggressive yet fluid stance of the motorcycle. A custom double swingarm configuration sets the foundation for extreme stability and visual impact, while CNC-machined body components give the bike a sculpted, architectural presence. An advanced air ride suspension system allows precise control over ride height and posture, blending performance functionality with a striking low-profile silhouette when at rest.

Wheel dimensions play a crucial role in the commanding look of PARDUS. The front wheel measures 18 inches with a 180 mm tire, offering confident handling and visual balance, while the massive 18-inch rear wheel with a 360 mm tire delivers an unmistakable muscle-bike presence. This wide rear setup reinforces traction, stability and the bike’s predatory stance, echoing its inspiration.

Craftsmanship defines every detail of this build. A handcrafted solo seat enhances the sense of solitude and rider focus, emphasizing that PARDUS is not designed for crowds or compromise. The handmade titanium exhaust system by ELVN Motorcycles is a technical and emotional centerpiece, engineered as a study of power in silence. Rather than overwhelming sound, it delivers a refined tone that reflects control, intent and mechanical purity.

Inspired by the black panther, PARDUS embodies agility, adaptability and instinctive control. Its form is fluid and cohesive, avoiding unnecessary excess while maintaining a powerful visual identity. This is a motorcycle that commands attention without demanding it, built for riders who move independently and define their presence through confidence rather than noise.

The Harley-Davidson V-Rod Muscle “PARDUS” stands as a modern custom icon, where engineering, design and philosophy converge. It is not dominance through volume or aggression, but strength contained—focused, deliberate and unmistakably present.
