Re: YAMAHA VENTURE?
That would be a close one Tony. The Venture has MUCH more power, but he Voyager has more leg room and does have a lower center of gravity.

Re: YAMAHA VENTURE?
I had an 84 that I restored and sold last year. It had a great ride and I found that I could find almost everything I needed on eBay and many on craigslist. I still have some of them floating around here that I just never got around to listing..
Sold, I thought that the big touring bike was not what I wanted. Sold it and bought a 98 Concours but after going on a few long rides last year I just picked up my 2000 Voyager, The Yamaha had a great ride, big and just seemed to plow forward regardless of the wind, and road.. did not handle bad for a dresser either. In fact I sold mine for $2000 but that was after a paint job, several new parts and a few months or working on it.
