Welcome to VentureRider. What started as a simple site for riders of the Yamaha Venture, Royal Star, Royal Star Venture and the Star Venture has turned into so much more than that. Though the great Yamaha Venture motorcycles are still our primary focus, we have many members who have eventually moved on to other brands/models or who have stopped riding altogether but still remain members dud to the lifelong friendships they have made on this site.
Whether you have questions about your bike, looking for parts, or just wanting to talk motorcycles and riding, this is the place to be. Our members are friendly and welcoming to all. My name is Don, Freebird in the forums, and I started this site around 15 or so years ago. I have met many of our members at our various rallies and meets and some I only know from their posts here on the site but am proud to call them friends, brothers, sisters. I like to think of this as our club, not MY club. I try hard to implement features that the members request. It's not always possible but I do try.
This is a subscription based club. You can read messages in most cases but can't post, search, and etc. without becoming a supporting member. We do offer a free 2 month trial however so you are welcome to check us out before paying the small $12.00 per year dues. Upon expiration of your trial membership, you will lose the ability to post messages. At that time, you can click on "Store" and then "Subscriptions" if you wish to continue. We hope you like what you find here. We have few rules but the major ones are no religious debate, no political debate, and no "X" rated content, nudity, dirty jokes, etc. We are a family oriented club so please keep things PG or at least PG-13 rated.

Pulled my J&M headsets to install the Sena kits I got for Christmas. Sena makes a helmet cradle that has an input port so you can use the Bluetooth AND still plug into the bike's systems for use in tandem. So now the kid and I can talk with the bluetooth on the Ural and still use the CB to chat with the wife when using the Venture!
Put the J&M sets on our marketplace cheap if anyone is interested.

Just curious. Easy thing to adjust.
from what I can tell it does not take much to make a difference but I would put some miles on and see if it settles in before making anymore adjustments.

It will try to find it's own way on the road, so do some test running first.
