dmoff1698 Posted September 5, 2008 Share #1 Posted September 5, 2008 I just had to post this. My wife and I are currently on vacation, riding the 99 RSV from Oklahoma, visiting our kids in Colorado. Well to make a long story even longer, we got as far as Fountain Colorado when I apparently got some air in my clutch line. No workie at all. Worked my way off the interstate and into a service station. I promise you I had not been there more than 3 minutes before another Venture Rider stopped and asked what the problem was, hopped off, grabbed his tool bag and went to work. Within 5 minutes, ANOTHER Venture Rider showed up and stopped to help. Looked like a convention. As luck would have it, we needed a tool that none of us had with us, so off he went back home and returned with all we needed. 30 minutes later and I am back on the road!!! So if anyone runs across Tim L. from Fountain Colorado, you just met a hell of a nice guy. I'm sorry I didn't get the name of the second rider, but my thanks go out to you too. You're never alone on a Venture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
