Quick Shout Out

[Adams99]

Hello everyone.

 

Just purchased a 99 Venture on Sat Oct. 20th with only 2,500 miles from the original owner. Yes that is the correct mileage. It is Bordeaux Red / Silver. It is replacing my first motorcycle, a 1993 Suzuki Intruder 1400 (I refer to as the poor man's Harley). I have been looking for a Venture for a while and the price and condition was right on this one. The ride is unbelievable and I look forward to clocking many of miles. Hope to see some of you guys around.

 

P.S. If anyone is interested in a Suzuki Intruder 1400, I have one for sale.

Welcome to the club, Adam. I purchased the same bike same color earlier this year and I love it. Like you, this is only my second scoot. It is nice to see that I am not the only young buck that rides one of these beasts.

 

Safe and happy trails,

Welcome Adam to the site!

Personally, I believe the 99 RSV has the most class. Hehehehehehe!

Have fun, and ride safely!

Yea, I'll get some pictures up eventually.

 

Bill, I too am going to miss the ole' Intruder. That beast has plenty of power. My only complaint about that bike is that it is a 4 speed and am always looking for 5th gear. I think with only being a 4 speed, I felt a lot of vibration, even with a gel seat. Suzuki wised up and eventually put in a 5 speed on the 1995 models. I've had that bike for almost 13 years and was looking for something different. My first pic was a Victory Kingpin with the chrome package, but the Venture was about 10 grand cheaper.
