I recently bought a 2008 victory vegas 8-ball. I am pretty dissappointed about the lack of torque this bike has. Victory forums mention 2007 victory vegas 8-ball, even the 2009 victory vegas 8-ball, but mine being the 2008 model has not been mentioned. I read something to the extent of the 08 model had a decrease of compression ratio, would this make the 08 model the lemon of the victories? Also the bike came with stage 1 victory performance exhaust, which i heard after the fact that it was a piece of doggy doo doo. My pipes are starting to peel and rust. Can you please give me some honest feed back out of all the things i have mentioned. thanx so much.
