Harley-Davidson V-Rod VRSC 2014 Owner's Manual

What's Covered in This Manual

This is the Harley-Davidson Owner's Manual for the 2014 VRSC (V-Rod) line, covering V-Rod Muscle (VRSCF) and Night Rod Special (VRSCDX). Every V-Rod runs the liquid-cooled, fuel-injected Revolution® engine, and this manual is written around that engine and chassis in detail: identification and VIN decoding, rider and passenger controls, the Harley-Davidson Smart Security System, day-to-day operation, and the full maintenance and lubrication schedule the V-Rod needs to stay reliable.

Because the manual covers more than one model in the same book, it's built with model-specific tables throughout - dimensions, bulb charts, fluid capacities and torque values are broken out by model code wherever the bikes differ, so you're not left guessing which number applies to your specific V-Rod.

For 2014 the V-Rod line was narrowed to just these two models, V-Rod Muscle and Night Rod Special.
