MikeWa Posted August 2, 2014 #1 Posted August 2, 2014 I finally got healed up enough to take my new to me 2010 Venture for a test ride. Wow am I glad to be back in the saddle. No matter how much you remember how good it is to ride the Venture the reality is even better. I have been accessorizing this bike while I have been laid up, anxious to get riding. And I have just got a little left to do, luggage rack and spoiler and a couple of lights. The good thing is I am riding again. The bad is the low speed handling (remember I am pretty much one handed for the time being). I had forgotten just how much the v-max rear end helps the low speed maneuvering until I was without it. So one more accessory to install and it will be asap. Mike
