Was a member years ago and then a free year membership when I bought new Venture last year. It always seemed Star was getting rich for what we got out of it and wasnt worth the money. My chapter was a great bunch of guys and gals but was tired of Star telling us what we HAD to do.

I like this idea- some sort of Gas card as Everyone needs gas whether they are on the cycle or in the "other vehicle" .

"Macedon N.Y. on Rochester's west side" PB&J- did Rochester move?? LOL I will be out of town or I would ride along.

VentureFar- Sorry I cant make it but I am heading out on the Venture to Canada monday morning for a trip . Et:)

"I don't think the car tire would have allowed me to lean over far enough" From experience- you can scrape the boards just as easy on a Car tire as a MC tire. Been thru the "Dragon" a couple of times with a "CAR" tire and no issues and lots of sparks- if ya know what I mean. Its all about the education about the subject.

12 days and then I can answer.

speakerfritz- I have one for sale all ready to go down the road. $250.. http://fingerlakes.craigslist.org/mpo/4444547901.html I see you are in the NYC area. I am 6 hours west of there so I would even consider a little ride to meet you someplace in between if interested. I have hauled it to California and back with no issues at all.

I have a 2013 with only 3000 miles and mine just started doing that on my last trip. I am going to do what you suggested and move the wire. Thanks for the info.

They replaced the Cd with the Ipod in the last couple years. As long as you got the Ipod and you can hook it up in the saddle bag, that should be it. If you need it for anything , the Yamaha # Audio set kit- 1BM-H81C0-V2 is on the box I got. Hope this helps and Enjoy your new ride.

Rob, My 2013 came with it in the left saddlebag. Also included was the actual IPOD with the "STAR" logo on it which plugs into it so you can somewhat control the Ipod from the handlebars. If you bought new- it should be included from the dealer. Ed

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

Anyone gone darkside..... And install winter tires:snow2: I was darkside on my previous bike (Stratoliner), But If I needed a snow tire, then that means there is salt on the highway. Salt = No Bike - until it is washed off in the spring time.

"I have a 2013. They gave me the ipod kit with the bike and I installed it. Everything goes in the left saddlebag. The kit consists of an iSimple module, two cables (one from the existing cable to the module and one from the module to the iPod), some wire holders, alchol pads, two sided tape and a warning label. The iPod fits in a little pouch in the saddlebag and is controlled from the audio controls on the left side of the handlebar." This is what Oldodge wrote. And I agree as my 2013 is identical.

1- SEAFOAM will fix it------------you forgot about the duct tape 2- CASSETTE DECK...really?---------Yamaha put it there so we would have something to talk about. 3- Tires...don't go to the dark side!----darkside for 3 years on my Stratoliner- then bought new venture .4- OIL...mine is the only logical choice----Do we need oil?
