I think that will make checking the rear tire pressure a real bitch!

Kai, do they have a tow package for the new venture or are y0u just going to be able to pull your camper with the Roadstar?

Yes, they do have a tow package. But I think I will be towing my camper with my Roadstar. I am turning the R* into a trike.

Yes, I like the TPM on my Indian. Very easy to check pressure after a tiny bit of driving. You will love it.

I'll be waiting to hear about this Kai. I was hoping they would do this for years. I never buy 1st year so I'll be waiting for a while. My old Ventures were my favorite bikes. The newer ones were just so outdated, but VERY comfy. If they are as good as I am expecting, might be my next.

Other than adding a 6th gear the 1900 engine has been around for years, and pretty much bulletproof.

They have been around for years and they were fairly bullet proof. But this is a completely different bike. V-Four liquid cooled 1300cc vs 1900cc air cooled is a major difference. I believe the frame is different. The fairing is completely different. To me this is a totally different bike from the ground up.

Where've you been? Didn't you get the memo?
The 2018 Venture we're discussing is a whole new animal.

We will see if Yamaha hits it's mark, many of the other Yamaha cruisers sat on the showroom floors for long periods before being sold, I'll bet there will be a pretty good dealer discount on the new Ventures because that MSRP is up there.
