Sold RSV, there seems to be a theme here

[gmarshall]

My RSV went away yesterday. But the good news is AlecC is a new member to the forums and he is the new owner. It seems like a lot of folks of late are selling their Yammies or leaving riding entirely. Whats up with that?

 

I have't picked it up yet because we are having a spring blizzard her but my new ride is waiting for me as soon as the weather breaks. I know, where are the pix? I'm giving it a try.

Both bikes I got the pic are sweet. Both happen to be Hondas ...hmmm... The white Wing in the back is a cutie

[gmarshall]

It is the 1300.

I went the other way last Halloween. From a VTX 1300R to the RSVS. I still have the VTX. At 120,000 miles, several IBA certs, and all over USA & Canada it has been too good to me to get rid of. I have made it very comfortable for me to tour on.

 

The VTX 1300 is a great bike with very little problems. That one is good looking too. Also there is good support on the forums, especially the VTXOA.

Wayyyyyy cool Leroy!! Any of that Iron Buttin, long distance touring on the VTX 2 up touring? How did passenger do with engine heat in the desert regions if you were two up - problems in that category or are they a "cool" runner?

[leroy]

Thanks Cowpuc.

 

No engine heat problem. No two up IBA rides but my special needs daughter has put in some 600+ mile days with me in the heat and she has done some 2000 and 3000 mile week and two week trips. She is not a small girl. We dress for the weather and manage our sweat.

 

The pic doesn't show my highway bar chaps I use on most touring rides or if I expect cold or rain. If it is consistently hot I'll take them off.

 

Did one Saddle Sore 1000 on my Venture so far. I have to say it is very comfortable but sucks the fuel at 80mph as compared to the VTX1300. 4 carbs get thirsty.

 

By the way the pic of my VTX in Monument Valley in my signature is used in the Race Tech Suspension on line brochure for cruisers.
