What would you ride if you didn't have a Roadstar 3 Years, 10 Months ago  
A while ago somebody posted a question of what would you ride if you didn't have a Roadstar. I really couldn't think of any bike at the time, but I think I have found the one I would have ....

Maybe my Roadstar needs a sibling parked next to her

Yeah, the Venture is a hellova bike. Very comfortable and a super engine. It was jsut a little too big and expensive for me. Plus, I like the classic, proven technology in the pre-FI Roadstar

Pop ... yeah, the Triumph is liquid cooled, but its got soul Ok .... cousins maybe?

Electra Glide Classic or a Venture if they'd modernize it a bit and get rid of the cassette deck.
