    Good Luck selling it -

    OK - now that I found the sore spot, how can I get salt in it :rotfl:
  3. Hummingbird
    to be honest - I looked for almost a year for a Venture Trike, not too many out there and the ones that are I didn't care for. there are 3 things that prompt a purchase out of me - (1) a good deal (2) I saw it and fell in love and (3) I just want it There are only 2 kits for the Venture and I don't like either one of them. I could have put a Hannigan on my Venture for $13,000 and saved $8000 but realistically I would have been under powered and out dated compared to the GL1800. I bought a second seat for the Wing and I'm taking it over today to get it 'adjusted' to give me a little more leg room.

    I got a pretty good deal on the Trike ($21,000) but since I got it home I've put another $2000 plus in it and I'm still looking for 'stuff' to put on it. I know up front that I'll never recoup the bling money but again, it's things I want. A CB, Antenna, 4.5 degree triple tree, a second heated seat w/Utopia back rest, a J & M Blue tooth terminal, Kury Highway boards w/heel/toe shifter, Kury highway pegs, mirror turn signal led's and there will be more - oh, almost forgot, didn't have it home 24 hours and Jaybird was here doing his thing. yep - Life is good

    Ok - I have some understanding I bought a 2007 Wing w/champion trike kit then listed my Venture. I sold it a couple weeks ago, I thought I priced it high enough that it wouldn't sell but someone fell in love with it. My Venture was the only bike that I ever had a real attachment to, for no reason other than I just flat out liked it and the ride.

    just curious - how do you feel about pinstriping ?? The Royal Star Venture is the MOST comfortable bike I've ever owned and I've already made my fortune so I don't mind letting someone else make a little profit. That's why I buy and sell my truck every 2 years or so, as well with my wife's car. ( we don't have payments on them either) mines a 2011 Z71 and hers a 2012 Legacy

    EXACTLY We all do it to suit ourselves - as long as the better half OK's it :mo money: I hope you meant selling it, if you intend to trade with a dealer and make money I wanna be a fly on the wall.

    who cares if it looses a little value - I didn't buy mine for an investment, I bought it because I wanted it. Then I wanted it a different color - my mineke, my money, my choice
  9. Hummingbird
    they are from the factory but not everybody likes to keep them that way
  10. Hummingbird
    GREAT looking bike but $8000 - ???
  11. Hummingbird
    not sure how they'll look on a Metallic Silver bike

    I can totally block him out when Jeannie is on the screen. 81 - quite a varied life RIP

    The one in Indy was an attempt to eliminate a half a million dollar mortgage - now someone gets to go to jail for murder

    can't come close to listing everything I'm thankful for so it's best to just Ditto what Lewis said

    I've been using a Driod (HTC) for a couple years - text, internet, email, google, utube oh and it has a phone feature

    I only rode 2 moto's and I waited until I was 35 to do them. Big mistake - should have done them when I was a lot younger. Did a LOT of dirt riding but it was in Ohio strip pits in NE Ohio. Never had a Penton but did have a Kaw, a Bultaco and several Maico's. Ran the one and only moto on a 450 Maico in the open class, finished in the middle in both moto's but beat the crap outta myself The next weekend I was back in the strip pits vowing to never run another moto

    Keep an eye on ebay - on a daily basis, I found a used 4.5 degree complete for $375 - also look around all the trike forums - used is scarce but new is $1000
  18. Hummingbird
    You betcha -with a little better planning we can even go next door and try their Bud light tap !
  19. Hummingbird
    not necessarily so - I saved 5K to 7K by buying mine already done, takes a little time and patience
  20. Hummingbird
    Again, I was wrong - been so long since I even looked at it, I forgot what it was. About 30 or so years ago I recieved as a gift a H&R Convertable. It shoots .22lr and .22 wmrf using 2 different cylinders. neat little pistol

    Isn't the Hornet a rimfire ? I think that's what's in my desk drawer
  22. Hummingbird
    I had a local dealer quote a Hannigan on my 2007 RSV - tax, tilte, del, paint and any other extras that could be added on came to about $14,000 I opted for a Champion kit on a 2007 Honda GL1800 with 2300 miles for $21,000, already done of course. I had to put a CB on it as well as EZ steer but that was only $1100. So now I have a 2007 GL1800 w/fuel injection, navigation, heated seats, heated grips, air bag etc etc BUT I sure miss the cassette player
  23. Hummingbird
    you got a shadow box ? DD214 here
  24. Hummingbird
    Actually nearly all Yamaha Venture buyer insist on a cassette player, especially when buying the bike new.

    My brother-in-law has been out there 15 or 20 times, they go a couple times a year and I think they've got it figured out. He's been telling about the slot machines on the sidewalks -
