Picked her up today

2015, with just under 8K miles. Corbin seat, heated. Doubt I will use that option though. Lowered, and looks like it has bar risers. New Michelin Road 5's at 7K miles. Took the top and side cases off for transport. It was 27 degrees, so the test ride was fun, lol, but she runs out nice, shifts well. Did have a bit of brake pulsing on initial braking, so I think I'll start by cleaning/freeing the bobbins.
Overall, I'm super happy with how comfortable she is

Here's the first V to wear the burnt orange colour, my '07. Not available in the US, only in Canada on the North American market. I wasn't crazy about the colour at first but I like it now- it's unique in
motorcycles. It looks good on your new V1000. Enjoy your new ride!

Funny video about bobbins. "Just fookin' leave 'em alone!" My V has an EBC disc with non-rotating bobbins so I've never gone the nut, bolt, spin with drill route. "It's all a load of shite anyway!"
