  1. I didnt like the visions either when they first came out but they grew on me , now I love the looks especially with the trunk off . Never had to take out a loan on a bike before but I fell in love with this one and decided what the heck , you only live once so I got exactly what I wanted . I used to think Ventures, GWs and other dressers were old man bikes but here I am an old man and now I see them as the comfortable way to ride. Pics are coming , It was 10:30 when I got home so I havent got around to it yet. This is a great site guys!
  2. I gave up on buying a used venture and got a new Victory Vision today. Just got tired of all the bs dealing with sellers who dont want to be straight up . Anyway I got the bike that impressed me the most , and 3 years of payments to go with it. Thanks to everyone on this site for the tips. Please understand Im not in any way kicking on Ventures , its just that for a little more money for new vs. new I think the Vision is the best for me. Now Ive got to go to the roadstar forum and say goodbye to some more great folks.
  3. Tried the bike out today , the guy said the cruise didnt work but I was able to set it thanks to info on this site , however the bike has a salvage title and it just doesnt feel 100 percent right. I know I should have asked him about the title but I would have checked it out anyway even if I knew about it. The bike is an 05 with 15k miles for $6500.00 on craigslist Fayetteville NC if anybody is interrested. Im thinking about a new Victory Vision , just dont feel like buying somebody elses problem.
  4. I hope to have pics for you tomorrow and more importantly in October when we ride to Daytona for biketoberfest ! Been ridin a Roadstar for 5 years and need something a little more comfortable with cruise , for the long trips.
  5. You cant squish the fish
  6. I hope the bike turns out to be decent . Im going to check out an 05 RSV tomorrow armed with some knowledge picked up from the folks on this site , hopefully Ill be able to figure out if its worthy or just a dud. Wish me luck !
  7. Thanks , that sounds like a posibility .
  8. Wheres the fuse box ? Is there a fuse for just the cruise control or is it tied in to something else ? thanks
  9. Sounds good . The guy selling the bike says the cruise was working when he bought it a year ago , other than that he couldnt give me any clues. Are there any particulars for using ( setting ) the cruise ?
  10. Im going to look at an 05 Venture for sale and the owner says the cruise stopped working. Are there any normal issues I should look for ? Is the cruise control reliable on these bikes or problematic ? Any info would be greatly appreciated Thanks
