  1. U.S. Features/Additional Features :

    Single-point audio control system for AM/FM radio, cassette, 6 disc CD changer and intercom is MP3-compatible and headset-ready. The system also includes a Star-branded iPod touch (8GB) with an iSimple SolutionsTM audio interface by AAMP of America.

    Canada :

    Clarion AM/FM cassette stereo features automatic volume control (AVC), 18-FM presets, 6-AM presets, covered cassette deck and remote controllers for rider and passenger. There is a front auxillary plug-in for an MP3 player.

     

    We don't even get a free CD-Changer and the US has both CD-Changer AND iPod w/interface and we pay more !

     

    Canada gets Metallic Black M as the colour. Don't know what "Intense Black" means.

     

    It's English for Metallic Black:confused07:

  2. It's a joke, and Yamaha still does not listen to anyone. The strat's reviews last year were a lack of cruise control that every bagger now has available, yet not the strat.

    The Venture, another rehash with new paint.

    No offense meant to you that love the Venture, but IMHO, what should be the least expensive touring bike is was over priced.

  3. What is it with these back seat drivers? man give me a break......

    :duck:

     

    I might add I have a Peggy as well and she helps watch the roads and she helps with the mirrors as well and at times I really do love her eyes on the road!!!!!!!

    Whats funny is Yama mama's Hubby & me share the same name as well

    two Ron's two Peggy's go figure........

     

    That's why I pick on Yama Mama :stickpoke:.......

     

    Buddy

     

    That's why I'm riding solo....

  4. I have a 6cyl 3 liter 2007 Escape and I used it to pull a 12 by 6 Continental Cargo trailer to haul my G1 85 Venture around and it also worked great as my garage. My Escape pulled my trailer and Bike fairly well on flat land but when i was going thru steep inclines or into stiff winds the gas mileage and performance sucked! The Continenetal Cargo 12 by 6 only weighed about 1200 lbs and with the bike on it it was a around 2000lbs. I think your 4 cyl would have trouble pulling this setup as my 6 grunted sometime.

    The problem with your escape is that the trans is a CD4E, same trans tat was in the contour and mazda 626. Typical failure rate is around 70k. That does not mean you will only get that mileage, but you cannot change your filter for one, and 2, that trans is one of the worst on the market. the 2-3 clutch drum is a 1 piece 2 sided drum made from stamped steel. I would not recommend towing a mini bike.

    Please take no offense as I am not trashing your vehicle.
