Raider58

Just bought an 06 black cherry this summer, already have a Raider, but wanted a touring bike. I did a lot of research like you and found a deal in las vegas, and I just love this bike, beautiful and smooth. Yes I have done a few things to it but that's the fun of it, right?

So the question is are you going to get another newer one, or something else, or done with riding?

Just normal stuff for us here in south east Idaho.

Just wear some tall riding boots, that's what I do to get flat footed. lol Seriously, I lowered my Raider and sure it looks cool, but it definitely changes the geometry angles of the bike and it handles much differently now. Not that I don't like it, it just gets some getting used to.

I regress, I tried and it actually works great, just afraid of trying new things I guess. lol

I just roll mine much more efficiant and way less complicated.

anyone have the web address for this HAGON company?

I found these somewhere on this site, I ended up just making my own, they look more like the straight ones.

Here's mine 08 Star raider.Started as a raven black, this is third color on it.

30 years ago this month, I remember stepping off the bus at marine corp recruit depot San Diego at midnight,ran us around for about an hour, got hair buzzed, then hit the rack at about 2:30, only to be awakened at 5:00am by a garbage can flying down the high bay. Great memories, 6 year marine Sargent. Loved every minute!!

I bought and used these. I took out baffle and glass rapped them. It has an awesome sound. They are a 4" generic harley pipe. https://www.dropbox.com/s/6ml079apkje6aw7/venture%20pipes%20.AVI

ONe came with my venture,but I took it off. If anyone is interested it is a Delphi roady 2. I really don't use xm so if intereste give me a buzz.

Hmm I just added the crash bars to mine, I thought it added to the look myself, But that's whats cool about this whole bike thing, I'm glad they don't all look the same, how boring would that be!

Sounds like fun.640 miles for me.

I just bought my venture this summer of 13, and the reason I came to this site and this one only was because it only had to do with ventures and that's what I need, not a bunch of junk about other bikes. I can go to other sites for that stuff. Oh and by the way who gives a crap about being politically correct! I get so sick of hearing that phrase. You have a great site here, please don't change it.

Hey thanks, my question is how are they supposed to mount because I just have mine held on with zip ties. Was there supposed to be a mounting system?
