Might want to learn some parking skills.
Have a 04 VTX 1300C that just hit 24k miles. Bike is responsive but VERY finicky in cold weather since it is liquid cooled. Best gas mileage I've received is 47 mpg but average low 40s. Great feature has oil filter under bike, easy access, no chrome removal, which makes changing you oil simple. Be very careful with tank since the paint is very thin and scratches easy. Use as a daily commuter and avoid all the Wild Hog weekenders. |

my father has the EXACT same bike. my only complaint is the boards and brackets are too low. I caught a bracket in a crack while turning left through an intersection and it kicked the rear tire ~3ft in the air in a turn ![]() Ouch! That's gonna leave a mark! TRG |

I could see a crack doing that. It's a great bike. Still no Falarak here? TXL |
