Made a mistake

[bobder41]

Bought my venture in 2012 for my wife to ride 2 up with her having a comfortable ride for long trips.

My mistake, in 2012 I had my wife take a riders edge course and get her license. I also bought her a 950 v star (she hasn't been on my bike since). I also bought a trailer to tow the bikes to Florida instead of riding them down there.

Liked my Venture but it was a little heavy around town and had tight turn issues. So this past weekend I traded it for a 2014 tour deluxe.

 

This is a great forum and I will continue to check in in the future.

2014 tour deluxe

 

I though that model ended in '09? Did you get a 2014 V-Star 1300 Deluxe?

Well,, I certainly see no mistake in anything you did Bob.. Sounds to me like you folks are developing the fine art of being a motorcycle family.. I think its AWESOME that you two evolved into each owning and riding the bikes...

On the same note,, I would get a little squeemish if Tippy started down that path of wanting her own bike.. Not that I dont think she is capable,, I just know her well enough to know that somewhere in her plan would be the part where I end up on the back:rotf::rotf:

 

CONGRATS ON THE NEW STEED!! Looking forward to some ride reports if ya get a chance... Oh,, by the way,, unwritten forum rules dictate, no , no :cool10:

Bob, that is not a mistake.

Count your blessings that your wife at least has an interest in bikes.

My honey has no interest in even going for a ride to see if she might like it.

 

But Puc, You would look good on the back of Tweeks with Tippy drivin......

 

You can tell her I said so.......

 

Or should I tell her?

 

 

I can just see her now, 2 trackin you back into some nice remote spot.

Your not afraid that she will make you look bad are ya.........

Yes, the 2009 was the last production year of the Royal Star Tour DeLuxe.
