Since I just picked up this 85 Royale I have a question regarding the "intercom". The intercom shows on the audio controls but I do not see any plugs for it for the head gear. Is there any easy way to tap in, or for that matter to actually know if they bike is equipped with an intercom system? newbie thanks you Scott

First off, I'm a newbie considering the purchase of a 1st gen. Venture. I am glad to have found this site! I've been lurking for a week or so and it's well worth the effort to become a member. So...... No doubt this has been covered before, but I couldn't find it by a search. I'm looking at a 1987 Venture that is in Great condition. 30k miles and everything works including the radio and CB. It is a very nice bike. If I could get it for $2,200, would that be a fair price?

Hey, I'm a newbie here and I know some forums have rules for sig sizes. I just want to be sure mine is not too large. Please let me know and I look forward to being here often.

Mrs. Vicco here. Saturday we went for our first ride together. To put it mildly, it didn't go well. No, we didn't go down or anything like that. The problem was, I was a nervous wreck. To begin, I'm claustrophobic so putting on the helmet started a panic attack. I couldn't see, hear, or breathe. Opening the visor helped on the breathing, but the reduced vision stayed a problem. Vic said he thought we worked very well together when it came to stopping, cornering, etc., but I was in a state of terror almost the whole time we were out. So...any advice out there to help a newbie relax? And don't say, "Just relax," that doesn't help. I know I'm supposed to relax. What I'm looking for is advice and explanations that will help me relax. Cornering/leaning was especially frightening. Right hand turns were worse than left for some reason. The odd thing is, we rode together many years ago and we went through corners, leaned, stopped, all that. But I don't remember any of it. BTW, we're going shopping for a different helmet before we go out again.

newbie here and a newbie venture owner... don't even have it in the Garage yet but already getting ready to customize it and have an exhaust question- I really like the look of the 4 into 4 slash cut exhaust setups I've seen on some of the models. Can anyone point me to brands, models, and recommendations for pipes of these types? Are there any that are quieter than others? I'm not a fan LOUD and actually prefer quiet most of the time but like to hear some rumble on acceleration. I owned a v65magna for years and loved how smooth and quiet it was heading down the highway... not necessarily looking for that, but not anything too loud... Looking forward to picking everyone's minds as i begin to customize my new ride- J 07 Venture Galaxy Blue
