After having ridden a Victory Vision for the last 3 1/2 years I may be ready for something easier to handle.
My first reaction is that when fully equipped with top case and bags the Connie is NOT easier to handle at very low speed or, even worse, when pushing it for parking.
I come from a HD Dyna Street Bob, same weight but much more friendly because of a lower center of gravity.
But that's the ONLY thing that could be argued with the C14.
All other features are dramatically better for touring.
No worries about scratching the pegs when curving.
Ouststanding stability when curving at high speed.
Great protection fro air (better for the driver than for the passenger, though...)
Great comfort on long distance trips for both.
The loading capability is impressive: I suggest to buy the internal soft bags so you can very easily carry your luggage around.
I also suggest to change the top case plate if you plan to really "load" your top case because...metal is better than plastic!
I don't speak about performances because there's no comparison on the market!
What's still missing at the Connie?
Perhaps a cruise control, but it's more like a gadget IMO.
Go for it, you won't regret it!
