I get the same feeling switching from the Valk to the Wing and back again.  The 2 things most different for me is the clutch release point and the fact that the faring on the Wing doesn't move with the handle bars like on the Valk.  The clutch release on the Valk is almost all the way out and the Wing is very near the grip. 

I enjoy both, but the Valk a lot more.

Yeah, The VTX feels low and small now, and the clutch on the VTX is cable vs. hydraulic on the Valk. Oh and the windshield feels like it's really close to me on the VTX too.

Sort of make me feel like I'm cheating on the other bike!  coolsmiley
