  1. alright. i got the bike in the garage. It has the light bar on the front with the two little lights to go with the big headlight. They dont work though. I cant find a special switch for them i am assuming they are suppose to work with the head light. Can someone clarify this for me?
  2. thats an easy fix though. pop the resivour top off nd they come back apart easily. I used a little stick of wood to pry the brakes apart on my 86. It darn well better work for a new bike.
  3. Whats going on brother. Looking forward to meeting you guys.
  4. damn i wasnt even in high school yet when you retired. Doesnt matter if your retired once a chief always a chief. I feel you on the working E-7. I get **** from the mess everyday because i dont even drink coffee. They tell me my balance will be thrown off if i dont have a coffe cup in my right hand. I guess the left anchor weighs more or something. But i am still active duty. Currently i am a Riverine but i am finally going to a ship after ten years of active duty. Its hard for an MA to get a ship. I pretty much had to beg the detailer. Even when i was a GM i was expeditionary. Time to learn what the fleet does for the GWOT.
  5. wow shows my attention to detail. there is another chief on here. Are we the only two or are there more hiding in the locker?
  6. UPDATE!!!!!!!!! Got the guy down to $8000 for the 04 midnight. Picking up the money from the bank tomorrow. I think it ended up being a good deal for 8k NADA lists it for 11k. I will hopefully have it within the next two days. woop woop
  7. thanks for all the great info so far. there are a couple here for sale but the 06's that i see are asking 12-13 grand. the 04 has less mileage and it is the midnight edition which i like the black ALOT. especially since now i know it already has chrome forks and the such. As far as which gen is faster, who cares? 70 miles per hour is 70 miles per hour. Doesnt really matter to me how fast i get there and dont care to go much over that minus the few digs every now and again because i ride to cruise not speed. If i wanted speed i would get a crotch rocket. Sorry first genners but i like the looks of the second gen much more.
  8. cool. but what is the difference in first Gen and second gen and what year is the cutoff?
  9. Hello everyone, I registered for this site because i know i am buying a Venture as soon as i find one that i like. Right now i am looking at two for around the same price and year. My question to all those who have the knowledge of these bikes is, how does $9000 sound for a 2004 with 22,000 miles? I know what these bikes go for new but not sure about resale value. It is a midnight edition BTW. I think that is just the paint job but maybe you all can enlighten me. Thank you in advance. Josh
