I just verbally agreed to buy a motorcycle. I'm supposed to pick it up on Friday. I looked at a lot of different things but my heart kept calling me to come back home. So....I'm not going to play any games...the winner is:

 

2005 Yamaha Royal Star Venture

 

20,000.00 miles, a custom Russel Day long seat that has heat, Up Graded clutch, aftermarket BUB Mufflers, Clearview Windshield, Tons of Extras.

 

It looks like it has about every piece of chrome that Yamaha offered including the air breather covers. Also has HID lights in the headlamp and the running lights.

 

It has Harley mufflers in the picture but he is also giving me his Bub mufflers. I really don't know that I want them so they will likely be for sale soon. I've never had a Russel seat but will see how it works out. If I don't like it, I will be looking for a Corbin. :)

It was just a pretty good deal. Even has the Wagner Grill Guard and the trunk spoiler. Will have to pick up a tank bib and that's about it. Those white wall tires will have to go but I'll wear them out first.

I'm really looking forward to taking delivery. I just got another message from the owner telling me that when he had the Russell seat made, he also had the Utopia backrest and passenger backrest recovered by them also so that it all matches. I hope I like the seat, never had a Russell before. I'll give it a chance. He is about an inch taller than me so it should fit me well.

SAWWWEEETTT !!!!

 

Having had an '06 Midnight, I'm just a little envious coz I really loved the looks and comfort of that bike and so did Nina .... it's unfortunate I couldn't deal with the low speed handling and the clutch basket whine. Had it not been for those two things, we'd probably still have it.

 

Congrats!

Nice looking scoot. If I took my '99 and my '04 and ran them head long into each other, that's what the result would look like... :-) If you find you don't like the Russell Daylong I have a nice Corbin for trade fodder.... :whistling:

Yah!! Even looks like it's got diamond cut fins on it to me! Can't wait to see it in person!

 

no it does not have the Diamond cut fins ..'YET"

Don't know yet but if it does, I'll certainly get hold of you. I THOUGHT it had everything I wanted but somehow forgot a couple of things. Just ordered triple cut diamond fins from @eusa1 and am awaiting information from @Luvdaleather on an integrated tank bib/rear tank chap.

 

Here's the tank bib I'm looking at from Nanci. At least the basic style. Mine will be a bit different in that it will not have studs but some type of braided trim or something.
