vrscse issues

I just bought an 06 vrscse used with 600 miles on it. I picked it up this past weekend and the bike is amazing! I was wondering if there are any future problems or issues with this year and model of the vrod that I should be looking out for? The bike seems to be running great and I havent noticed any issues yet, no brake squeal, no clunking of the front end, no battery issues yet, is their anything I should look out for? And secondly what type of detachable bags or rear rack can I put on that can hold a leather jacket?
I will post pics whaen I can figure out how to crop a photo to 500 kb, lol

Other than the ones you mentioned the only issue that I can think of is the small fuel tank and limited range because of it.

That is definately an issue, I rode it home from the dealer about 50 miles and used half a tank! That is judging by the led fuel gauge. Another thing is that there is no trip meter with cvo tach and speedo set up. How much does the larger fuel tank cost and is it a tough install?

I just bought the '07 and have the exact same questions.

Follow the link in the 5.3 thread. The installation is fairly easy if you know how to run a wrench. There was even one Beta installer that had never worked on her bike and was able to put it in herself.
