Edit to add: Well and there IS the new Yamaha Eluder based off the Venture   Logged     Last Edit: 2017/12/30 22:45 By Jaybo.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1027037 Questcap (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 7727 Re:Can't believe how nice our bikes are! 1 Month, 3 Weeks ago   Hmmm, not my cup 'a tea, as they say.

Knew about those. Look at Indian. They actually designed the Chieftain first on the drawing board and then took parts off for their first releases and gave us the stripped down versions their first go’round. They didn’t want to try adding fairings and all that stuff to a weak framed bike. Maybe Yamaha did the same, design wise, and will eventually take all the crap off for a stripped down cruiser for the rest of us.   Logged     ' width='450' border='0' style='max-width:450px; ' />   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1027041 Jaybo (User) Here, hold my beer...

Partly due to schedule, excessive smoke from the fires, christmas, and just been plain cold! Yea, been down to 60 some days!! Just dusted her off and fired her up. Can't believe how much pleasure it brings to just open her up and let the horses run. She roars for more as if to say, "bring it on". So much care free, flawless, strong, full of life pleasure this bike brings me. This is the best bike I've ever owned. Thanks for letting me share! I've sure enjoyed mine,it's an '04...had 9000mi on it when I bought ii,I've added a little over 30,000 in 5 years no major issues,just riding pleasure.My midnight is my 2nd rd☆ my first was an 02...It was a great bike also !!!!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #1027127 KCpartsguy (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 27 Re:Can't believe how nice our bikes are! 1 Month, 3 Weeks ago   I always go and ride the Harleys and Indians whenever they have a test ride event and they are definitely nice but then I get on my Road Star and I think hey, i don't need a new bike, this one rides real good.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1027272 BubbaKahuna (User) No reasonable excuse for what I am about to do.

Same here, it's part of my job to ride the competition. Every time I do I think "Wow this is really nice!" Then I ride my bike off the lot & think "It's sure as hell not $XX,000.00 nicer ...".   Logged     This fits in here, right? I mean, I can make this fit in here ... right?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1027277 Questcap (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 7727 Re:Can't believe how nice our bikes are! 1 Month, 2 Weeks ago   We've a big dealer nearby. They host all the factory sponsored test ride events. A buddy and I go for the free food and a ride. And, sure enough, whether it was Victory or Indian, they were nice. Real nice! But, then, we just get back on our old, paid-for, Road Stars, and like you, Bubba, say, "They're not $XX,000.00 nicer... not by a long shot!"   Logged     Sig Pic deleted - larger than 450 pixels and 50 kb   The administrator has disabled public write access.
