Bill, I was at their store last week when we were on vacation. They are very nice people and appeqared to have some "smokin deals". You will have a great time riding it home.

 

Linda and I really enjoyed the area. Hope to meet up with you someday on the Wings at a Ventureriders.org rally.

 

Congrats on the new ride. I saw it first!!!!

Good Deal Bill,

Think I'm going to Jacksonville, IL to look at a Titanium with Navigation and the Comfort package tomorrow to just see what they would offer in Trade.

Congrats Bill...your wife will love the comfort...she may even want you to get the armrests and Kuryakn transformer floorboards like I put on mine for the wife. Hope that puppy isn't too heavy for you...I know you went down a size recently for that very reason.

 

Look forward to hearing your opinions. Enjoy!!!

i sat on one and i can flat foot it and bend my knees. has a much lower center of gravity. don't think it will be a problem in parking lots. feels as low and light as my v-star. so many goodies available, it's going to be fun just dreaming, looking and maybe doing a little shopping. just don't know where to start. guess i better get the bike first. highway boards will be first on the list. got to stretch these legs once in awhile. bill

Seems you & me will be riding twins in Eureka Springs , Same color and package. But I will wait about putting on any chrome for now. The Venture has the chrome package and just about burned out keeping it all chromed up. Living here in the country on a gravel does not help keeping the chrome nice and shiny. With hardy any chrome on the Wing its a lot easier to keep clean.

 

Yes the Wing has a low center of gravity and turning in parking lots are a breeze. your going to Love it I sure do, and the Wing should be a breeze on those Eureka Springs roads too....

I can go 210mi before the low fuel light comes on. I'm getting around 40-42 MPG at 70mph.

 

Peg loves the seating and I love the handling of the bike. Don't get us wrong we love the venture very much, but due to our bodies we had to go with something that would benefit the both of us on long trips. Pegs back and my Knees...
