Quickstep Posted June 4, 2012 Share #1 Posted June 4, 2012 The hips have arthritis, as do the neck and shoulders... too many years driving long haul trucks [45+yrs] The Venture was getting too heavy, so before any mishap I have changed bikes! A friend here wanted mine, and I wanted his...so we swapped I now ride an FJR Still consider myself a Venture rider, don't come in here much -- but I lurk LOL and get all the goings-on from Annie Stay safe everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99silver Posted June 5, 2012 Share #11 Posted June 5, 2012 Alan, I have ridden one of those and I wore a big grin when returned. I like the red, don't think that color is available here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonRider Posted June 5, 2012 Share #13 Posted June 5, 2012 Very nice bike Alan, I am also thinking of downsizing, but I will keep the Venture, I have had it too long and put too much blood sweat and tears into her, and I dont think anyone could appreciate her the way I do, so I will be selling the V Star 1300, dont need 2 touring cruisers, and will be getting something similar, really want a Kawi Concours, but will see whats available for what cash I have.

rowdy7 Posted June 5, 2012 Share #14 Posted June 5, 2012 Welcome to the club. Have you been able to wipe that smile off your face yet? Don't ask how I know this. I really am envious of that color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
