Now I personally have drawn hundreds if not thousands of dollars worth of knowledge from this board not to mention dang good entertainment and camaraderie. the purpose of this post is that I just used a how to about fixing an e-4/e-1 code on the class system. followed Freebirds instructions reassembled and it now works perfect!!! Don't mind telling ya'll I feel a little proud of myself. soldering gun 5.86 solder 2.00 fixing it myself... priceless (with alot of help from friends I,ve never met) Thanks, Allen
etcswjoe Posted September 24, 2011 #2 Posted September 24, 2011 I lost count, how many times I have been helped.

We get that back just in reading Boomer CPO's postings each week. I stopped and talked to a young man on a 95 wing today and I think spit and bailing twine was all that was holding his together.
Sylvester Posted September 24, 2011 #6 Posted September 24, 2011 Don't forget YammerDan's garage, we are all looking for a solution to his problem. I even offered to come and place the concrete. Lots of good info here. It is worth $50.00 a year.
Midicat Posted September 24, 2011 #8 Posted September 24, 2011 ...It is worth $50.00 a year. No one needs any ideas now. Cut that out! Thomas
Snaggletooth Posted September 25, 2011 #9 Posted September 25, 2011 When I first found this site it was a freebie. I was stunned at the amount of info available and the attitude of the members here. Everybody was ready and willing to offer advice, parts, data and anything else that would help me get my bike to where I wanted it. I know Don struggled with the idea of needing to charge a subscription fee for the site, but there are costs involved and they do add up. When he announced the $12.00 fee I about fell over. I already new what the site and members were like and how much knowledge I had gained about my bike while being here. I had no issue with a fee at all. I have to thank our fearless leader for what he has created here. Well, I guess we all helped create it, to make it what it is today. So thanks to you all. If the info here is not everything you would would want.....the entertainment value is priceless. I got to get my fix everyday or I get bored.
GolfVenture Posted September 25, 2011 #11 Posted September 25, 2011 $12 a year, or $1 a month, or .033333 cents per day. Let me see I'm on this site every single morning, afternoon and evening. Best 3 cents spent. Besides getting the best Venture M/C help. You get creative new ideas, great jokes, videos. Once can ask any question on pretty much any topic and get some good response.
chabicheka Posted September 25, 2011 #12 Posted September 25, 2011 Don't forget YammerDan's garage, we are all looking for a solution to his problem. I even offered to come and place the concrete. Lots of good info here. It is worth $50.00 a year. For those, that feel the site is worth a lot more...there is a 'DONATE' section where one is welcome to 'donate' what ever extra they feel like donating.
FuzzyRSTD Posted September 25, 2011 #13 Posted September 25, 2011 I have become addicted to VentureRider.Org . Yes 12 dollars is great. I believe it was free when I joined also. Thanks to Don and all the others whom give him a hand. Lots of laughs and lots of knowledge here, for just about anything for motorcycles and some other interesting topics come up some times. Great place to spend some time rather than watching the TV. Sometimes however, I do feel the need to read my Bible more, and also pay more attention to what is going on around me than reading the posts. My wife gets so mad when I am not listening to her.

Snaggletooth Posted September 25, 2011 #14 Posted September 25, 2011 My wife gets so mad when I am not listening to her. Fuzzy What? Women talk? No wonder I'm always in trouble.

saddlebum Posted September 25, 2011 #16 Posted September 25, 2011 (edited) Its the worst $12, I have ever spent. Since joining in 2006, It has gotten in the way of all the stuff I am really supposed to be doing, like the honey or something or other list (can't remember the full or proper name anymore). Caused me to hang out with, unruly fun loving people, who seem to have nothing better to do than offer free help and advice. Has resulted in my wife, threatening to send me to VRA (Venture Rider Anonyms), because since joining this site in 2006 I have become a pathetic addict. Wait a minute I was already messed up before the $12 .... HELP I NEED HELP. Edited September 25, 2011 by saddlebum

bongobobny Posted September 26, 2011 #20 Posted September 26, 2011 Can switching to GEICO save you money on car insurance???
CaptainJoe Posted September 26, 2011 #21 Posted September 26, 2011 Is it just me or does anyone else wonder how a Geco would taste?
bill in mn Posted September 26, 2011 #23 Posted September 26, 2011 $12.00 was worth the price of admission alone. And the first thing I fixed with the help of this site (battery warning light fix) and it worked perfect. I even made one for my friend that has the same issue. Worth twice the $12.00 , thanks .
