05 r* midnight 20k. trade even for 07 v* 10k? what say you. i purposly leave out specifics so i get the most bare boned opinions. thanks guys.

It all depends on what you like and the kind of riding you plan on doing.


Right. Every other year I do a two week long multi-state ride. Could not even imagine it on a v*. Just not a good traveling bike compared to the R*. If all you want is a poker run or commuter bike, go for it. My 2 cents anyway.

Dont like the V* but the Roadies are great. It is all about preference. If you like it thats all that matters. But personally Id keep the Roadie.

I went from 1100 to R*, and going back means you never want to go over 70. are you really thinking about this move. WHY?

+1 i had a vstar. Theres no comparison, i felt more comfortable on the r* + it has more power and great mpg for a 1600-1700

I do like beer flavored nipples as much as the next guy....but no. I moved up also from a gold Vstar 1100 to a black R*. Once you go black...so they say.

Started with a 650 V-Star, then an 1100... I now have 2 R*s, and I wouldn't even consider goin' back! No siree, it's R*s for me, friend!

UUmmmm.....absolutely...NOT, never, no way!
An 05 R* is something I would REALLY like to have.
I have two R*'s now, and had two HD's this year also (had),sold 'em.
