    Nice bike! Nice dash as well, better than the LCD one from the 1300s'. They were a pain in the butt when the electrics decided to go mad.

      Finally got it today. Got up to 46 this afternoon so I took it out for a while. Rides great on the interstate.

          Got her all finished for now. Did a ton of work. Found a couple guys with just about every chrome add-on made, new tires, brakes, progressive springs and shocks, brake light modulator, K+N air and oil filters, had the radio modded to play MP3s from my phone, Kuryakyn Iso-Grips, Stainless brake and clutch lines and a Cee Bailey windshield.

          If anyone is interested I have a full build thread here.

            Looks very nice! Havin' ridden one(friends) that had previously been a dealer-owned model, they are extremely smooth,easy to handle for the size, have all the 'bells and whistles' and a cruise control that works flawlessly.

                Yeah, I remember the Voyager XII, and it did have a very smooth-running engine with little-to-no detectable vibration -

                Tat2demon, congrats on the bike - looks sharp!

                    Two nice looking bikes... I came very close to buying one of those back in 2000. The dealer had a new one that had been setting in the show room for two years and he was ready to deal, but my money was a little short.

                            That is a nice one. That Corbin seat and backrest sell for almost $800 new.
