CaptainJoe Posted August 9, 2011 #1 Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) Just a thought but with so many sightings of ventures lately an idea came to me this morning. Would it be possible to design/produce decal(s) for our Organization that could be placed in designated locations on the front fairing and rear trunk that would both advertize to others and identify a current Venture rider? maybe include our CB channel? Under this one could always place their Username? Or has someone already thought of this? Edited August 9, 2011 by CaptainJoe
Squidley Posted August 9, 2011 #2 Posted August 9, 2011 29 is what we use as Ventureriders for the CB channel, and I have had Venturerider stickers made that I have sold for years. I need to get that back going again and put them up in the classifieds
Midicat Posted August 9, 2011 #3 Posted August 9, 2011 ...I have had Venturerider stickers made that I have sold for years. I need to get that back going again and put them up in the classifieds Yeah, you do. I'll take one. Can you make them for the inside of my rear window of the car? I'll take one of those too. Thomas
CaptainJoe Posted August 9, 2011 Author #4 Posted August 9, 2011 Squidley, I know there are numerous Venture stickers/decals floating around but I was thinking if we designated spots on the fairing and trunk we could instantly tell if they were part of our group(and what their handle/userid was, if, they placed below the logo). Additionally, if it were a flouresent? color you could see them regardless of what color the bike was "from a distance". If CB-29 was included in the design of the sticker/decal someone riding up on another venture would know thats the channel we use, even outsiders/truckers etc.... You'd be surprised how many of our members either don't know, or, forget while out on the road(happened in Cody more than once). CB-26 is the Yamaha channel and a lot of riders tune to CB-19 the truckers/monitered channel. Let the attacks begin ! Just kidding...LOL
Phoneman1981 Posted August 9, 2011 #5 Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) I am interested in at least one sticker for either my windshield or the back of my trunk. Edited August 9, 2011 by Phoneman1981 miss spelled word!!

XV1100SE Posted August 9, 2011 #9 Posted August 9, 2011 Would be handy to have cards (business card size) so when you meet a non-member you can give it to them so they have something on paper to remember the web site address.
XV1100SE Posted August 9, 2011 #10 Posted August 9, 2011 ... I think Don had them made up. Not sure if it was a one time run or not?? Freebird - do you still have any of the domed decals left?
BuddyRich Posted August 9, 2011 #11 Posted August 9, 2011 As the first page use to say we are not into rules,cliques,rank and such formal MC's have. I would not put any kind of sticker on my fairing anyway. Might on my trunk but then I'll decide if and where to put it.
etcswjoe Posted August 9, 2011 #12 Posted August 9, 2011 What is Venturerider.org......? Never Heard of it....
Yammer Dan Posted August 9, 2011 #13 Posted August 9, 2011 Never Heard of it.... I thought I did.... once.
Yammer Dan Posted August 9, 2011 #14 Posted August 9, 2011 :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: See Buddy I'm not the only one that gets blamed for things.....:whistling::rotfl: I got room left in my corner.....
Trader Posted August 9, 2011 #15 Posted August 9, 2011 I was thinking of putting the www.venturerider.org on the lower part of my windshield and MAYBE on the trunk box. I tell anyone and everyone I see riding a venture or *STAR about this site!
Freebird Posted August 9, 2011 #16 Posted August 9, 2011 Would be handy to have cards (business card size) so when you meet a non-member you can give it to them so they have something on paper to remember the web site address. Cards are available in the VentureRider Merchandise area. Freebird - do you still have any of the domed decals left? Yes I do. They are in the VentureRider Merchandise area.
CaptainJoe Posted August 10, 2011 Author #17 Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) Thanks condor , I checked the domed black and chrome ones out and they look good. Especially with my midnight... Squidley, I'd be intersested in seeing yours also... will be looking fo them... Perhaps... Just perhaps, I'm looking at this all wrong... Maybe what we need is an antenna pennant with the venture rider logo. That way you could see it from a distance and not have to designate a spot for it... One could always decide where to put it... the Radio, or, Cb antenna... Edited August 10, 2011 by CaptainJoe
ragtop69gs Posted August 10, 2011 #18 Posted August 10, 2011 What is Venturerider.org......? I guess you wouldn't know... you being a Honda rider !
Eck Posted August 10, 2011 #20 Posted August 10, 2011 I guess you wouldn't know... you being a Honda rider ! Ouch,,, that hurt...., but I would STILL let you ride with me anytime..if you can keep up.
Ryana7769 Posted August 10, 2011 #21 Posted August 10, 2011 How about we all wear a flashing green light on top of our helmet? that would make it very easy for everyone to recognize! :whistling:

Ryana7769 Posted August 10, 2011 #23 Posted August 10, 2011 Where do I get mine?? Might keep some idiot from running over me!! I'm sure Ronco will be coming out with it in the very near future...Stay tuned to the informercial channel for details!!!
saddlebum Posted August 10, 2011 #24 Posted August 10, 2011 I thought I did.... once. I believe your thinking of venturerider.ouch I was thinking of putting the www.venturerider.org on the lower part of my windshield and MAYBE on the trunk box. Thats were I have mine
CaptainJoe Posted August 10, 2011 Author #25 Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) saddlebum, trader "I was thinking of putting the www.venturerider.org on the lower part of my windshield and MAYBE on the trunk box." Lower windshield and trunk would be excellent places for some people. In fact that would be my first choice... Everyones bike is different. It would be impossible for me to put a decal on the lower windshield as it has 3 windshield vents in it. The trunk depending on wether its a 1st or 2nd gen, limits the places you can put it as well, not to mention some have things painted on their fairing, tank and trunk. A well done tasteful pennant I believe would be the best bet. If not, I could always order 3 dome decals and place under the yamaha logo on both sides of my gas tank and one on the trunk centered on the lower half(2nd gen) Ryana7769,"How about we all wear a flashing green light on top of our helmet? that would make it very easy for everyone to recognize! :whistling: " Hummm, that would be easily identifyable but so would this...
