If you have the time start on 16 in Jefferson NC and take it all the way to St Mary's it's just a little over 300 miles. My grandmother lived off of 16 in Marion Va and it's a great rode to ride.

Sounds like a winner to me. Joe

My front tire was cupped so I had it changed two weeks ago and I mistakenly assumed they would change out the vavle, however when I talked to the service manager he said it looked in good shape so he did not change it. Needless to say they are correcting the issue at no cost. I was checking the air pressure yesterday before I went riding and when I took off the tire guage the center of the valve went shooting across the garage. I was thankfull it did not happen at speed.

Had a nice thing happen to me today (not), the valve stem on my front tire separated. I am curious however other than losing all my air is there any symptoms prior to all out failure I should have noticed? It had only been a few days since my last air pressure check. Joe

"Nightmare at a dealer" or "Lawrenceville Honda/Yamaha, you suck!"
etcswjoe replied to Guindalf's topic in Watering Hole
I guess I am lucky I have 2 Yamaha dealers within 10 miles of my house. Charleston Power Sports likes to talk to you whether you are buying or not and I have been very happy with them. Velocity is a much bigger dealer and are not as personal however I have not had any bad experiences from them. Joe -
If you did not adjust the air it could have just been a good bump.

I tried the New Wing, I liked the ride however I can not stretch out my legs as much as on the RSV. Joe

From what I can tell its like the one I had on my 83, looks a little wider. If thats the case its just extra chrome and lights.

Trunkless '04 Venture
etcswjoe replied to 924gtr's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I saw a red one in Charleston minus the saddle bags and the guy had 4 into 4 pipes on it also. Not sure if I like it or not seems to defeat the purpose of a touring bike.
