  1. Thanks for this post!! I was just looking into that very same thing since I will be picking up my new Venture tonight.. In Ohio this time of year, you need the heat!! :-) Awesome site!
  2. On the tire wear, I see the same exact issue on my Roadliner... After some research, I have found a very interesting reason: "crown of the road" From the seated position on the bike, the road is crowned higher on your left side than on your right leading to a more off-center tread wear.... The crown is for water / debris runoff so it will not pool in the road..... Almost every bike (more pronounced with highway riders) have this same issue... Nothing to be concerned about from what I have seen...
  3. Hello all! :-) Well... I think I will be taking the plunge but I still have cold feet about this one.. :-( My 2006 Roadliner S 1900 has been a great machine for me... Nice large cruiser that turns quite a few heads wherever she goes.... That v-twin 1900 has so much low end it pulls like a freight train... Fuel-injected, belt drive.. I love that bike... However, around 18000 miles a year on bikes, I have been replacing tires and more tires on my Roadliner... and after about 400 miles in the saddle (converted to a Mustang with backrest), it just isn't comfortable anymore... I really cannot find anything bad in the reviews or in the forums that tell me I would be making a bad choice going to a Venture.... Can someone help 'push me over the edge'?? Thanks!
