Hello all,
I'm a new member here, but the wife and I have been lurking here for a while. I've Been owning and driving motorcycles since 1966, and the wife since 1992. The last one we owned that would be comparable to the Star Venture was our 1998 FLTRI Road Glide HD. I'm riding a 650 Suzuki thumper now. Never owned a Gold Wing or BMW full boat offering.
The wife drives a Kawasaki 750 Vulcan. We were quoted $16,000 out the door price for a 2008 Venture at Okeechobee, Fl. with no trade in. BMW and/or HD can't come close to that price for a total package tour bike. Should we buy? We're looking for comfort for two-up, prime concern.
We haven't driven one yet, but the room for two seems better than the other's offerings. Heft off the side stand was substantial...
Thanks ahead of time for the responses.
