I've only put 1000 miles on my Connie so far and I will tell you that all my other bikes feel different now. I can't quite put my finger on it, but they do feel different. I notice I am revving them a little higher than I used to.
Same thing happened to me when I bought my 08. I was still riding the C10 at the time. After a few weeks on the C14 the C10's brakes were totally inadequate, the suspension was mush, the engine sounded rough and there wasn't any power. Bear in mind that I found nothing wrong with the bike before I bought the C14.
Here is a pic of my new rocket..
Just got back from a ride, what a wonderful bike. I have not seen any RPM
above 4000 yet but I have been riding over 80 a good bit, I can see speeding tickets in my future
Mmmm....
Drinking red wine makes me feel so upper class...
You're right Z, you just ooze class when you drink that stuff.

It actually looks brownish red, My wife says its mahogany, I defer to her as its more peaceful that way, mahogany it is. Now I need to find out what color she thinks V&H is...
The thing that really stands out to me is what a crazy VALUE this thing is, I am used to
buying bikes and there have been a lot of a brand that I will not mention again on this forum..ahem..lucky to get a few hundred off on those. THOUSANDS off on this super fine machine just blows me away, I LOVE a value and this was a true value.
Twowheeladdict...you need more bikes
Been researching on here what remove "flies", at least I have figured out in this case bug remover is not indicated
Ok Conrad, in your case it would mean flies, buzz buzz flies. In my case it has something to do with the secondaries in the intake (like I said I am a Kawi noob).
Jeff, It was 14k all in. Got quoted 13,7xx.xx all in from the Irving TX Kawi dealer but this one was local. That was the Kawi Irving price -no haggling needed
so I took this one. We have a 6.x sales tax in TX, Personally it seems like a smokin' deal for what
you get.
This color is really "rich" looking too, personally I really dig it.
BTW, THANK YOU to whomever posted it on this forum and mentioned the dealer in Irving as a great place to get a buy on these bikes, sorry I do not remember the thread. This forum saved me some money for sure.
Pics of bike or it didn't happen........
