Just got it firing!
I bought a used 2022 V85 from an individual and went on my first ride with it yesterday. I noticed a couple of things that I didn't notice during my demo ride. The first is that over 60mph or so I get what I assume is a high frequency wind buffeting that affects my vision. I start getting almost double vision with distant objects. I'm looking at these wind deflectors to hopefully solve the problem; debyltech.com/products/mc100aa01/ The bike has a GIVI AF8203 Airflow windscreen installed. Does anyone have any additional insight?
The other thing I noticed was that the motorcycle seemed like it was "surging" slighting while I was maintaining a constant speed. I didn't really notice it while using cruise control so my first thought was that it may have been bumps and vibrations causing me to make slight variations in throttle input. The previous owner had the cat eliminator kit and Mistral boost module installed but removed and included them separately to return the bike to stock. My last, but maybe least likely, thought was bad gas or wrong octane. I haven't filled up yet. Should 87 octane be OK? The manual says E5 or E10 which I believe translates to 87.
Thanks very much in advance!
