I have been a sports bike rider for years, most recent bikes being Buell, R1 and 07 Speed Triple. I wrote off the Speed Triple 4 months ago

and decided it was time to slow down so brought a Harley Nightster

. In short, hated the Nightster

so I traded my Harley for an 08 Victory Vegas

. Love the Victory, a great ride smooth, torquey, comfortable. Took her out for a run in the weekend, did a few kms, interesting having reduced ground clearance

. The heels touch down letting me know Im running out which is ok

, but I can see I am going to have to watch going too hot into corners or I will come unstuck

.
Anyone else done the transition? How are you finding the clearance?
