That's the exact configuration i like, colour, windshield,no bag at the back,no rivets on seats, maybe some more chrome... But i think I will never be able to afford it , things here in Italy are getting every year worst, it's pretty hard for a worker to collect tiny amount of money.
I have a 97 Royal Star. I love it and looking for a newer one for long distance rides. I always thought of the Venture as a Royal Star with a Fairing, lol.
Mine has 18k miles. No slip. Even when under 2 up riding. I think the ones that slip are people trying to go fast on a bike and not letting the clutch fully engage before hammering the throttle
