OrlinEngh Posted July 23, 2011 Share #1 Posted July 23, 2011 Hello I have been reading some of the posts on here and have also gotten alot of great info,I would like to say thanks to all. I ride a 1984 Venture and love it. I will get a pic of it on here soon. Also if any of you are in the Viroqua Wisconsin area feel free to look me up. I also have a small campground its rustic we do have out door toilets so if you need a place to camp and you are in the area there is no charge here. Just good company.

Yammer Dan Posted July 23, 2011 Share #3 Posted July 23, 2011 Hey Little Tater. You learn a lot more from a used bike and aren't as scared to tear into it. Some of the older classics are still around. I would love to have a older Yammy full dressed such as 1100 XS or one of the 900's Wow Skunk has a 750 with all the fairings and everything that is nice. Probally couldn't get that one foranything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bongobobny Posted July 23, 2011 Share #6 Posted July 23, 2011 Welcome aboard! My first Venture was, and still is, an '84 as well! The gold ones are the fastest Venture ever made! There is a M&E coming up not too far from you in Minnesota around Labor day called the Pork in the Pines put on by member Whoomp. This year will be the first time for me but I have known Gary for several years now and am looking forward to finally meeting him face to face. If you ever have questrions, or need parts, be sure to bring it up here, there are many friendly and knowledgeable people here. Heck, most of us are even housebroken...

eagleeye Posted July 23, 2011 Share #7 Posted July 23, 2011 OrlinEng, Welcome When I go for a ride, I usually head up your way over towards the Mississippi. Great back roads up in your neck of the woods. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Margaret :banana::crackup::rotf: Welcome to both of you newbies. I second the idea of posting with your bike info in your your user cp. This lets everyone know what you are riding. You would not believe the people that ask questions with out any bike info. Leaves you wondering or you just do not answer. Hope you all enjoy the site. The Boss is Freebird, and he has put together a very helpful site here. The people make it what it is. A very nice group of knowledgeable trained mechanics/shade-tree mechanics/and people just to help. Help is what they all do so well. Glad you joined this great bunch.
