FAZ-MEN Posted June 17, 2018 Share #1 Posted June 17, 2018 I bought my Venture in March. So far I did 2200 miles. After 600 miles service I started getting this message on the GPS saying that "GPS Not Available". First of all after some messing around with addresses it was going away but now for last 1000 miles it's just frozen like that. Second thing is noise in the neck when brakeing or going through bumps. It probably need to be tighten by the dealer. Please let me know if anyone experienced similar things? Other then that I love this bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOHAWG Posted June 17, 2018 Share #3 Posted June 17, 2018 I heard on another forum someone else had a noise in the steering neck. Had the dealer tighten the head stock bearing nut to proper specs (apparently was too loose). Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FAZ-MEN Posted June 19, 2018 Author Share #5 Posted June 19, 2018 The noise at first sounded like clicking when I was stoping. Then got worse. Now I have loud banging when I'm going through bumps. I'm going to the dealer later this week. As far as GPS I did update from 11.9 system to 12.1 and didn't helped. I'm not going mess with it anymore. I'll let their technician to fix it. I can change crank shafts if needed but electronic sh... it's not my thing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I'll let you know what it was when they fix it. I can't wait for 4th of July weekend.
