Well the back tire (Metzler) on our Venture peeled and the new tire did not come in so our trip to the Rock Store was taken on the '98 Virago 1100. I repaired the saddle bags and made a new backrest, shaved some foam off the passenger seat and stiffend up the rear springs. Now I normaly ride the Virago solo on local trips. Rose wanted to upgrade to a bigger bike and that is how we got the Venture and she has not been on the Virago much since. The ride to the Rock Store is about 200 mi one way. Boy does Rose miss the Venture!!! Even with the changes to make her more comfey she is really sore. The Venture has us sooo spoiled us I doubt she will go on any more trips if the Venture is not going. While I still love my Virago it is no good for trips 2 up and we miss the comfort of the Venture.
