    IMO, Yamaha blew it with another V-Twin, air cooled, belt driven clone. Should’ve slapped a Vmax, shaft drive, liquid cooling in it. I haven’t seen one personally, but sounds like the fit and finish is underwhelming.


    Hondas and Kawis and Zukis and Yammys...Oh my!

    Fit and finish were shockingly bad. Not what I was expecting at all.

    ++! on the V-MAx motor and drive train.
    They messed up when they discontinued the V-4. The power of my V-max and Older venture were effortless.
    ITS ALL GOOD

    When I had my 2014 Super Tenere, a buddy of mine had a mid 90’s Venture. We came to a stop, and I gunned it. I looked in my mirror, expecting to see him way behind. Nope. He was right on my tail. Mind you, that was a full dressed Venture with car vents in the dash.
