Godlover Posted February 6, 2012 Share #1 Posted February 6, 2012 Well, I might be back on a Yamaha! I found a great deal on an 08 Tour Deluxe with under 4,000 miles and warrenty until 2015. I would like to sell my 03 Road Glide first so I don't have to borrow the money and I am talking to a guy who will give me what I need to purchase the Tour Deluxe plus a 91 Trans Am GTA with 62,000 miles. So I get rid of the Road Glide and end up with a Tour Deluxe and a Trans Am with the only cost being the taxes and fees. Let's see - I've had two 2000 MM Ventures and an 07 Tour Deluxe. For some reason I keep coming back to the Yamaha! One of the greatest benefits of having a Royal Star is the Venturerider forum!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godlover Posted February 6, 2012 Author Share #4 Posted February 6, 2012 Jeff, you are right, I am crazy! When the guy offer me a grand more than I paid for my TD I let it go! I enjoyed the 53 mercury summer project but had no intentions of keeping it. Then I got the Road Glide on trade for the Mercury. Honestly, I would almost trade the Road Glide even up for a newr low mile TD. This way I have the TD and a Trans Am! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godlover Posted February 6, 2012 Author Share #5 Posted February 6, 2012 I got it!!! I have the Trans Am in my driveway. It is a 91 with a 305 - T-tops and 62,000 miles - and I made the deal on my 08 Tour Deluxe with 3600 miles on it and warranty until 2015!! All I gave up with my 03 Road Glide with 20,000 miles so I think I did okay. I'll get pictures up as soon as I get them. I need to get the TD from Greenville Wisconsin so if anyone is coming to Iowa from that area I'd give you something to haul my bike down. If not, I have a day trip ahead. The dealer said he would keep it until I could get up there! Yippee!! I'M BACK!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm considering a Road Glide Ultra...what was your experience with the one you just traded? Seems like you were happy to be rid of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godlover Posted March 17, 2012 Author Share #18 Posted March 17, 2012 The road glide is nice on the road but I don't like the heat in town. I am 6'4" and always felt crowded on the Harleys. I also like the smoothness of the Yamaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
