my 08 every once and a while i get static blasting from all four speakers at the same time. the only way to make it stop is to put the radio on headset real fast. waiting to take it in for my 4000 mile check. told them about it when it went in for the 600 mile check up.

how do you modify r/k mufflers???
adventurer 08 replied to big mike's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
BIG MIKE i replaced my mufflers last month with H-Ds . was a easy job to take out the baffles and with squidlys brackets went on the bike real nice. sounds like a hot rod when you take off .if you live in the macomb township aera you can check out mine if you want. john -

What's the best tires?

thanks everyone for the tips. -
Need advice on changing the tires on my '08 Venture. I've seen on the website that the Avon tires seem to be the best. I would like some advice on what size and series would be best. Is it true that putting a smaller tire on the front helps with handling?

i also have a bike pro on my trailer. it makes loading your bike alone a breeze. drive in to it and the bike stands all by itself.
