Congrats on your Milestone and getting a picture... When I rolled 100K I was traveling to NH.. I was In MD and there was a sign on the interstate no stopping except for emergency.. I stopped anyway to get a picture of my Odometer... A state cop pulled up behind me and asked what the emergency was... I pointed to my odometer and said I needed a picture, he said wow that was an emergency.. He then blocked traffic so I could safely get back on the interstate... I Love seeing these bikes getting these miles.

No bumps for me yet... still on track for being there..👍

Beautiful riding up there... getting there is an experience. Going thru Ct and NY is horrible in a car or on a bike.. I've have not ridden in WKY except to pass thru.. I was so looking forward to going.. I guess another time.
-
Well shoot, I was really looking forward to this... I have a family obligation in Hew Hampshire that I can't get out of. I'm going to miss this event.. On the plus side I will be riding up there so I guess there's that... I guess I'll see some of ya'll in Asheville..

We stayed at Hyatt Vacation Club at Windward Pointe... Booked it on Booking.com... We have stayed there for the past 3 years and love it.. 2 bedroom condo with our rooms overlooking A1A and the ocean... We have looked at other properties and this has been our choice .. Our morning view from the balcony..

Well it was cold here in Fredericksburg, VA and had about 1' of snow over the course of a week.... Nothing like you guys. The low was in the teens a few days... While that was going on My wife and I were on Vacation in Key West... The coldest we had was 69*F.. I was glad we missed it but coming from KW to VA was a little bit of a temp shock...

I don't need the guard so leave me out.. I just wanted to join into this discussion... I had a 2004 Venture (white).. I guess it wasn't the fastest color (according to others), but the nicest color.. Put 150k on it and sold it to get a 2017 Road Glide.. I put 50K on that.. Then with Failed shoulder surgery I was forced to go to 3 wheels.. Still wanting to tour and needed help with steering I got a 2021 Can Am F-3 (they have power assist steering) I still consider the Venture the best bike I've owned and miss it at every ride.. But that ship has sailed... I recently purchased a 2004 V Star 650 and I'm getting it back on the road... I also have one pissed off wife (LOL).. It will cure my need for two wheels around town and short trips and I still have the F-3 for touring / longer trips.. Good luck to the winner of the Wagner Grill Guard... He made one hell of a product RIP Steve

2006 royal star venture buying
Riderduke replied to ultrascott's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I sold my 04 venture with 150K miles on it in 2017 for $3500.00. So I would say its a good deal if its running well.. -
99 Royal Star Venture - Electrical Problem
Riderduke replied to Frank88's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
Check your rear brake pedal and front brake lever to make sure they are not activating the break light. There is adjustment there that can be made. -
Hey Steve, I'm back also... I'm not on my 04 RSV though... How have you been..

The weekend of the 6th is the only weekend in October I can't do... I was really looking forward to see Don again... It's been a handful of years....

Hocking Hills state park is only 7hrs away for me. I'm definitely interested. The sooner we can get a date the better. I would take off work on Friday and make it a 3 day weekend.

God willing, I'm In See you there

That sucks, I left at 6:30 and rolled in at 3:30pm. I got very little traffic, however there were lots of cops out on I-40.. I bailed on the interstate and ran up Rt-29.. Much more pleasant of a ride....540miles I guess I didn't do too bad... Ron, After following you during the rides last weekend. I think we need to re-name you Sparky....LMAO

Thanks for the weekend to all. Also thanks for the great riding pictures Mrs. @WIZ... (Tina)
