I found a baby 1st gen parked outside a store today. I had never seen one before. It turned out to be a Yamaha Vision. I googled the model and it is a 550 V-twin. But it sure lookd like a V-4 with two pipes coming off the front cylinder. I didn't examine it closely. Nice looking bike. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamaha_XZ_550

I've come across a '96 Honda Magna, that a neighbor owns. He is thinking of selling and it is in really good shape. I would spend a little extra to get it since I know it has been well cared for, but he is still on the fence about keeping it. Anyway, my son is looking for his 1st bike, and I am a little nervous about this one. I know that these bikes are fast and quick, everything else about it I like. Especially the V-4 motor. I know for a fact that these bikes can get up close to 130 mph or more, and this worries me with a 17 year old. Aside from the speed, if anybody knows of any other issues let me know.

Hi to all. I currently ride a Honda ST1300. It's a great bike, but I am having trouble getting used to the riding position (even with the risers). Before the ST I had ridden cruisers for years (39 year riding experience). I am considering moving back to the cruiser world, but want to keep the V-4 for smoothness. I am just interested in hearing from the Tour Deluxe crowd on what you consider the strengths and weaknesses of the bike.

Apparently Aprilia knows how to get some power from 1000ccs in a V-4. http://motorcycledaily.com/22february08_aprilia_rsv4.htm
