2013's look sharp!

[dmyers]

I have painted every bike I ever owned
so I don't care what color it comes in.

Sorry collection of colors. Must be a paint shortage in Japan.

More like a "creativity" shortage.

I always knew you were the sharpest axe in the shed Tim.

According to the spec's on the link Elvis has in his post, it say's fuel capasity is 4.4 gal. Hope thats not right. needs to be more like 6 gal.

It's 5.3 gallons, which is acceptable, but still less than it should be.

[QUOTE=Utah Motorcyclist;459166]Am I looking at this wrong? Is the black on the saddlebags a flat black and the black on the tank a glossy?


Well after looking a bit closer and taking into consideration the lighting used when the picture was taken I can see a reflection of the saddle bag guards in the paint, if this was a flat black paint I doubt we would see this reflection.

I sure hope you're correct!!! Many of the pics have harsh, deceptive lighting.

Looks like the ABS Vaquero is still not available in the US. It had Canada/UK in the specs. Colors? Flat black looks good but yes I also herd it was tough to maintain. The combo red and black with the cheesy stickers. Nah. I'll stick with my '11 red one.

[dabull]

are there any major engine, drive train, or cooling changes that have been made to the Vaq and Voyager?

[smokey]

I agree with the others on the flames, looks silly and retro 60s. if they are decals and not clear coated over, they should be easy to remove.

[dewey405]

I don't think the VV needs major cooling changes as the KAMS is still in it, would be nice if the other two would have it though....at least the Vaq. As far as the drivetrain goes, I rode a 2010 Nomad today and it felt significantly luggier (made up word, but it fits) than my 2012 so it seems when they said they changed the gearing up it was for the better so not sure if they should change it up.

Looking at the pics, nope no KAMS except for the VV still.

Ya gotta hand it to em. The boys at HD are masters of marketing.

Again.....they see what their customer's are putting together and emulate.

Stretching the bags a bit, slightly taller narrower front wheel/tire, nice paint, custom wheels. I realize that this is a CVO, but I'm betting it won't be long until this is a standard model and they move on to whatever the hot ticket is.........again.
