    Hi Annie Yeah, I have given the UC AGM some thought. thing is I'd probably need best part of 4 weeks, go anticlockwise, north from here, across the top end, (might still be wet up there = no go) and by the time I do some ,and come back across nullabor. Well you get the drift. Time would just fly. then there's work commitments etc. Then I could be like , (given that AGM go's for a week), probably do it in 11 or 12 days, not stop to admire anything and be knackered when I get home. And work commitments might still kill it. All that said, I'd still love to go. Tony.

    Mike & Cherie That sounds like a plan. Just let me know when. I run a beef cattle operation at present, plenty of space if you'd like to stay a while. Northern NSW 6-7 hours ride from Sydney. Our autumn or spring are best times, also winter is not too bad (on a venture of course). A bit too cold on a naked bike. Summer heat can be a bit oppressive at times. Thats just our small part of the country. cheers Tony.

    Firstly I'd like to say thank you Don for the site & making it all possible. From reading here I know I'm not alone in saying that. To all those members who post / have posted to the tech section ( you know who you are) thank you very much as well. I have never had to ask a question about my Venture, because everything I need / want to know about the mc is here somewhere. My apologies for not interacting more on the forum, but am normally a man of few words anyway. Just my nature I guess. Would be great to meet some of you guys for a ride, M&E or something but doubt that will happen without some big changes in situation. (you never know) Thanks again folks Tony.

    G'day mate 11ks/L is not too flash. I've got the same '99 bike with 130,000 ks on the clock & get just on 17 ks/L. I thought just last week It's about due for a tune up & might even do a bit better than 17k/L. I do use nothing less than premium fuel, & ultra/ultimate (98 + octane) if it's available. A few cents more but I think worth it. Don't know if these options are available in US, assume so. LilBeaver mentioned the obvious things to check. Let us know how you get on. I too am new to the site & find great info here. Also wondered how far north you are in QLD? I'm northern NSW & don't know of any other venture owners in the area. Good luck with fuel problem Tony

    My 1300 '99 model has nearly 130,000 ks (over 80'000 miles) on the clock. I cannot complain. It's quite cumfy on long trips, very reliable & runs smooth. I love it. I don't think you can go too far wrong. Servicing at the regular intervals is the key. Enjoy.
