    polish

    Thanks guys, I found some Honda polish at the local yamaha/Honda dealer for about 6 bucks, they also had some labeled yamaha polish, but it was a dollar more, so I didn't get it. The guy I bought my bike from gave me a can of showtime which he distributes for 12 bucks a can. It works great, but too expensive. The Honda polish works great. Thanks again. Mel:thumbsup2:

    Insurance cost

    I just posted this on another thread, because we were comparing bikes. I am 52 and am insured with Allstate. My insurance is full coverage with a $250 deductable and It's only $75 per year. The same year ultra would be for me $237 and the same year goldwing would be about $155:thumbsup2:
  3. something else I have not seen mentioned is insurance rates. I just checked with allstate and the same coverage for the same year ultra would be over 3 times the rate for the RSV. I pay $75 per year and the harley would be $237. The goldwing would be about $155.
  4. [Now the resale on a Harley is MUCH better then that on a Venture. So if your not sure buy a Harley and if you don't like it sell it and buy a Venture that way you won't loos as much as if you went the other way around. I had to chime in on this one. I have a 06 black cherry Venture that I bought last year for $9800 with 19k miles, the person I bought it from bought it brand new for $14500 and had it 4 years, it is in excellent condition. I went and looked at an 06' black cherry Ultra the other day with 12k miles the guy had bought it for $30000 with all the accessories. He was also throwing in helmets and intercom. at 10k miles he paid $1500 for maintenance. He was asking $15500 for it. It too is in excellent condition. I could ride my venture for a year and throw it away and still be better off.

  7. I have on ly had my 06' venture for a week. Today I put my Garmin gps on and went for a ride(I know my Garmins speedo is accurate) It showed anywhere between 3 and 5 mph to slow, it also is jittery instead of smooth, like a real needle would be. Any suggestions.
