Personally I don't pay much attention to the shape of the untuned VE tables. At their best, the VE tables are a depiction of the air flow through the engine (from air filter through exhaust) at all throttle and rpm positions. This generally takes a lot of tuning time to get accurate. Fuel needs are addressed in the AFR table (and supplemented in the warmup, accel, and other tables). The VE tables just characterize air flow to help calibrate the actual fuel delivery to the fuel demanded by the ECM. But uncalibrated the VE tables may - or may not - be close to reality. One would like to think that HD took the time to fully map each motor combination it lists a map for, but.......
