  1. I believe the best statement so far in this discussion was to have all drivers, "drive defensively." Driving through a stop sign when you admit you see something coming is not driving defensively. That's aggressive driving, like trying to beat a train. Or just being plain ignorant, irresponsible, and/or stupid. Drive defensively whether in a car or on a motorcycle. Drive defensively whether having modulating lights or not. Drive defensively whether pulling a trailer or not.
  2. The wife is saying Venture And we all know when the wife is happy, we're all happy So it's Venture 10:1 Hopefully we can test drive this weekend in Daytona. We'll yada yada again if we have any news or questions Again thanks all And this is a great place to visit and read and learn.
  3. We're getting excited about our next purchase, that most likely being a Venture or a Tour Deluxe. We're interested in knowing how many here are on their second Star Cruiser style, and/or those on their second Venture, or those who traded up to the Venture, or down to the cruiser. We don't give a rat's ass about the chirp or other known traits of these motorcycles. We're kinda almost sold 100% on the V-4; but which style: Full boat with all the bells and whistles, or enjoy life a little longer in cruiserville. Oh yeah, hopefully we'll be able to test ride both this weekend in Daytona.
  4. The wife and I both drive our own motorcycles. Sometimes we wear our helmets sometimes we want the wind in our hair. Sometimes she wears hers, I go in the wind. Sometimes I wear mine, she goes in the wind. We have a great relationship, a side by side mutual love and respect relationship. We love pro choice. Pro choice is like Respecting Other's Opinions at all times. It's like listening, understanding, and...
  5. After reading posts like this for Yamaha and all other brands via other forums, do you gents have a list of good dealers to trust for maintenance work? Thanks,
  6. Right now it's #1 on our list. We'll get back to you all with any new news. Thanks again.
  7. 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.
