Posts: 162 Extreme Southern, AZ United States | Well my 2013 VV is in the shop. No nothing wrong with it except for the fact it isn't in MY shop. I signed the papers yesterday and should have it next Friday. My 2009 VV developed a problem and ended up with a broken #2 shift fork. Nobody could tell me how that could happen, the warranty people concluded it was a defect in manufacturing. Anyway, I got nervous about the fact that the bike had been completely disassembled and was worried that I would never be able to completely trust the bike again so I traded it in on the 2013. I got another black bike. I had the silver parts painted black as well. All the swooshes and stuff. The handlebars are also black. I also ordered Thundersticks and the cams/PC5/airbox etc. They are moving the hitch from the old bike to the new bike as well. The bike looks great. The black trim items look slightly sinister. I am having them put the heat shields from the original pipes on as well. I am going to take the heat shields to the powder coaters when I finally get the bike to have them coated black chrome to complete the look. Fornow I have to be patient. Next Friday may take forever to get here
