Guest wrench Posted March 16, 2008 Share #26 Posted March 16, 2008 Congratulations,,, nothin' like that "new bike" feeling no matter how cold. I had the same concerns about the handling thing too. I went from a Suzuki Volusia, a 500 lb bike, to the Venture. I've had a few "tight spot" problems but most of them I caused myself by not keeping the weight difference in mind, plus when I got it 2 years ago my left hip was shot. Very few problems now as long as I remember that very few bikes back up on their own! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loneeagle44mag Posted March 16, 2008 Share #27 Posted March 16, 2008 Congradulations on the new scoot. I've had mine 1 1/2 riding seasons with about 17000 miles on it and I love the bike. You will probably figure this out but I'll mention. Very slow manueving forward with the handle bars all the way cranked. The bike gets tippy on me. I haven't ever dropped my 06 Midnight, but close. Just because of this. I've learned now to not crank it all the way off going forward. Pushing backwards seems fine. Ride safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
