      I love that bike. It has the larger fuel tank doesn't it?

          My 80G has the same fairing and luggage, a bigger tank would be nice to have when I'm trying to make time on the interstate!

          I identify as a man but according to the label on a package of Stauffers Baked Lasagne I'm actually a family of four!

            Not just the tank, which is the standard tank for the EU/RoW standard models (they never got the smallish 5.3 gal. US tank, but the big one right from the start). The Venturer also got the OEM oil cooler system that all EU/RoW standard models had from the beginning.
