    Yes, I did have to subscribe to XM.

    I found a XMsnap radio at Best Buy on the day after Christmas for $19.99 and decided to see if it would work in the DC outlet in the fairing. Since I had already split the audio input, there was a 3.5mm plug to use for the audio output of the XM radio. In short, this radio works great. All I had to do was locate the included antenna, plug it and the audio cable into the XMsnap and plug the unit into the DC outlet. Quick & easy and it sounds great. See pictures.

    Don't worry. This is legit. I ordered one several weeks ago and have been very pleased with it.

    Jim, Thanks. If I can find a used trim ring at a reasonable price, I may try it.

    Just curious - has anyone painted the plasti-chrome headlight trim to match the color of their bike? If so, I would like to see pictures.

    I've owned a '08 charcoal/silver RSTD and now I own a '08 charcoal RSV. Although, with my compulsions to by stuff for the motorcycle, I think it owns me.

    Thanks. I'll try it tomorrow.

    Can you take the emblem off the cassette door without messing up the door? If so, how do you do it?

    Dennis, I hope you like it as much as I like mine. It's much more comfortable to me than the stock seat. Since Mustang has no plans to make a cover for the Venture passenger backrest, I got them to sell me a couple of yards of the vinyl they use for the seats. Unless anybody on this board knows of a someone that can make a cover, I'll find somebody locally that can. David

    The new Mustang seat for the Venture is one piece construction.The only way to use a backrest is to order the Mustang seat with the backrest.

    I ordered the Mustang seat without the backrest last Thursday and received it Tuesday. It's great! Not nearly as soft as the stock seat and the vinyl is smoother so you don't stick to the seat after a couple of hours. I love it and I think you will too. However, the vinyl does not match the passenger backrest - not even close. Mustang tells me that they do not plan to make passenger backrest for the Venture. I may see if they will sell me a couple of yards of the vinyl and see if I can find an upholsterer that can recover the backrest.
