tufftom4 Posted September 28, 2016 #1 Posted September 28, 2016 I found the bike I want I am going to call them and see if we can make a deal and trade in my 2 bikes,I find this bike sexy and a good price for the accessories it has I just wonder if you can put highway pegs on it. http://miami.craigslist.org/brw/mcd/5799461274.html
videoarizona Posted September 28, 2016 #2 Posted September 28, 2016 Looks like the Venture Yamaha should have made after the Gen 2. Add a Tourpak, cassette deck, etc..
Freebird Posted September 28, 2016 #3 Posted September 28, 2016 Honda did that already. They call it the Goldwing.
BlueSky Posted September 29, 2016 #4 Posted September 29, 2016 Yeah, Honda turned the ST1300 sport tourer into a cruiser. I might be interested if it didn't look so weird. It isn't selling so you can get a great deal on one. I saw a new one advertised for $8,995 on craigslist. Most of them are higher though.
djh3 Posted September 29, 2016 #5 Posted September 29, 2016 Shoot, until I started reading I thought it was an FB6. V-4 water cooled, fairing etc. You sure its not a 3rd gen Venture? I think it looks unique. Certainly not the run of the mill cruiser. How are the reviews on forums etc? I knew they mad a 750 or something in that CTX format or whatever it is.
Barrycuda Posted September 29, 2016 #6 Posted September 29, 2016 The CTX is a wonderful bike, worthy of having an owner. Before you consider heading to Miami, go to Action Honda in Hudson Fl. They have some CTX, F6B, even new Valkyries. A heck of a lot closer to Miami. Worth a shot. Keep us posted.
stroker ace Posted September 29, 2016 #7 Posted September 29, 2016 If I'm not mistaken they only made this bike in the U.S. for 2014 so make sure it's what you want. The F6B has the flat 6 1832cc goldwing engine.

Talk em down on price. DallasHonda has em for $9K.
BlueSky Posted September 29, 2016 #9 Posted September 29, 2016 I think 2014 is the only year too since that is all I've seen advertised and there are lots of new ones available. The cheapest one on craigslist new is $9,995 in my area. It went over about the same as the Pacific Coast model way back when if you remember that one. The PC would probably sell well today but we weren't ready for that style back then.

Danaman Posted September 30, 2016 #11 Posted September 30, 2016 But that is the base model not the Deluxe, The deluxe has anti lock brakes abs and blue tooth. I bought one two weeks ago. All I can say is it is a fantastic bike. The only major complaint from most is the suspension could use upgrading and no cruise. I have the deluxe model, ABS,traction control, heated grips, Centre stand, Bluetooth stero, fuel injected and three years warranty. The v4 is very smooth and has lots of power. I sold my venture and bought the CTX because I was tired of waiting for Yamaha to put out something new. Don't get me wrong I loved my midnight venture but as stated I wanted newer technology. Tom if you have any questions I would be happy to talk with you. As stated make sure you shop around because they are not being made anymore and you should be able to get a good deal.
Motiv Posted September 30, 2016 #12 Posted September 30, 2016 Seen a red one at spraug's restaurant during the WAY rally. It looked real nice but I must agree that cruise should be standard and a trunk option would complete the package. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk
retrostude Posted October 2, 2016 #13 Posted October 2, 2016 Seen the deluxe as low as 10k locally but didnt pull the trigger as the primary benefit would be ABS while commuting. When I got back on my 86 it still felt like a great bike... so I retired instead. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
