Review: Had & ridden Gold Wing for 18 yrs.81 model for 1 yr.&89 model bought in 91 new,for 17 yrs. was over stock.We loved & enjoyed both Wings.We wanted to try something new and different,so we started looking around and went to Brewers Cycle in Henderson,N.C.on the first ever visit and was very well greeted before we got off our 89 Golg Wing good.We looked the store over ,Sue had to sit on nearly every bike there,but kept going back several times,saying that Royal Star Venture S was a lot more comfortable.I must have gotten on it 3 or 4 times myself and found I could plant both feet on the ground with plenty of leg left to stand,and I really liked that since I am only 5'9" tall.It felt very balanced like no feeling I ever had with the Wing.We have put 5500 miles on it since we bought it last 7/30/08.I cann't believe the great ride this motorcycle gives.It's a well built bike,the 1294 engine gives you all the get-up and go you will ever need.I'll be 63 yrs. old this 7/30/09 and plan to do a lot more riding on this jewel of a motorcycle.People should at least give a test ride,they will change their minds,we did.I don't know why there is'nt as many on the road,it looks just as good maybe better in ways and the quality IS there for the ROYAL STAR VENTURE S.We have found our forever ride and love it,also the unneeded 5 yr. warranty OUR PRIDE & JOY has.Just try it,you'll be glad you did.

Features: Looks like a motorcycle should,Sounds like a motorcycle should,Has great charcoal silver color,well balanced ,plenty of front foot room out in front of you ,comfortable and plenty of room for mama in the back seat.If mama ain't happy,nobody ain't happy.You guessed it,Mama is happy.The solid & positive feel on the road & parking lots.

Improvements: nothing i cann't live with,but more lighting on rear for safety and maybe a bank angle sensor in case of fall or lean more 45 degrees will cut motorcycle off.
