Hello Everyone: I was able to get in a 50 mile winter ride yesterday. Dry roads and 42 degrees. I reflected back on my improvements this past season that have really made my cycling experience much nicer. Using my DroidX cell phone in Otterbox Defender case is a much welcomed improvement. Bluetoothed to my Nolan N103 helment gives me freedom to ride even when I am "On Call", something that I was always scared to do before, afraid I would miss an important callout. Adding a 12v accessory plug allows me power to my cell now. No more "low Battery indicators". Using a GPS program on my cell phone has given me a precise easy to READ "Speed" indicator. I always felt uneasy riding with my stock speedometer, knowing that it was 8 miles per hour off. Little improvements that have made a big difference for me.

What are the best non factory improvements you have made to your bike? Better performance, lighting or anything that makes a bike better. MoS

I cut myself and bleed like a stuck hog almost ever time I shave.I been using a Gillette Mach 3 system for years with no problem. It must be old age and poor eyesight. Have they made any improvements with those electric shavers? Or should I go looking like BEER 30? :think:

Hello I'm new to the forum because I am considering the purchase of either a left over 08 or a new 09 Venture. Now this is some what my idea and some what my wifes idea. I presently own a 08 Yamaha FJR1300A. It is an amazing motorcycle. This is why I have reservations of getting a Venture. However, my wife likes the Venture "seat" and the more touring like ride of the Venture. I like the addicting power of the FJR. What to do? I once owned a 1999 Venture. I thought it was a nice bike. I liked it better than a Goldwing I tried and HD---well. Anyway, can anyone tell me any major improvements to the Venture since 99? I have not kept up with the changes if any as far as the Venture is concerned. I don't see that much difference from the 08 to the 09 version although I haven't seen much info on the 09s. Thanks and I have to say this is a great site for information on the Venture.
