[QUOTE="Twigg, post: 1149115, member: 27619"] Yamaha missed a trick when they failed to update the Venture. According to contemporary opinion, they had a better bike than the Gold Wing. However, they made only one upgrade in 1986 and only detail changes after that. Honda introduced the 1500 in 1989, and the rest is history. Honda also moved production to the US which was a brilliant marketing move. The Venture already feels old and slow. It's biggest redeeming feature is the sheer carrying capacity and that glorious V4.
