Hello.

Would like to know how efficient the heater is in the Venice.   I was originally looking to get a speedster next year, but now am thinking about a Blackjack.  One of the options NA on the Blackjack is a heater.   I live in Minnesota, so the fall and early spring are a bit chilly.   Just wondering if anyone uses the heater and would miss it if it were gone.    I currently ride motorcycles, so I am ok with the cold, but if the heater really helps might need to reconsider my choice.  

Also, would like to know how "waterproof" the interior is.  I do a couple cross country trips on bikes each year and always seem to catch a day or two of riding in the rain.   My hope is to use the Venice for the cross country trips and retire the bikes to <3500 mile jaunts.    getting old....  Smile

thanks,
mike

Has anyone bought any of the Speedster specific accessories??  They seem pretty pricy relative to the standard Venice.

Traction Plate:
Speedster - $485
Venice - $325

Storm Cover:
Speedster - $398
Venice - $249

I saw a post on FB (Vanderhall Owners Forum; search for wiring) about the hardware around the steering wheel adjustment abraiding and then shorting out part of the wiring harness. I took the top plastic cover off the steering column (2 screws front and 1 on each side) and found wiring running over a steel brace with a sharp edge directly above the steering column. The wiring moves when the steering column is adjusted and can drag on the brace. It appears the layout has changed from the original FB posting (I have a 2019 Venice), but it looks possible to get the same bad outcome. Tight quarters, but I managed to wrap a piece of bicycle inner tube around the wiring sheath and put a piece of plastic edging over the sharp edge of the brace. Might be overkill since I rarely adjust the steering wheel position, but I thought it might be of interest to the group.

Thanks J Patrick for the invite!

Been a Venice owner since February 2018, so almost 2 years.  Been very active on the FB groups, and with the locals here in Houston.  

I can easily say that I have a love / hate relationship with my Venice and the company itself.  Quite a remarkable machine they have created, but still heavily lacking in refinement, and in most cases service.  So it's that question, is it worth it?  I've never owned another vehicle that gave this much fun, ...but also this much heartache.  Regardless, i'm still here, ...currently awaiting another visit to the dealer for a replacement bumpshifter and a proper alignment.  (been through 2 sets of tires before I realized it was that bad).  Done plenty of modifications:  custom wheels, custom graphics, BNR tune, pipes, gauges, etc...

I also run a graphics business, part of the reason I bought the vehicle (to promote), so if y'all need any stripe kits, or graphics, we have a modest selection for the Vanderhall, particularly the Venice.  I'll be registering as a vendor shortly.

Anyway, hope to keep tabs here as well, but honestly, FB is easy for me.  So if I miss a comment, or message, feel free to reach me at work or email, or whatever.

Does anyone know if there is someone making a vinyl decal of the Vanderhall logo, about 3", that I can put on my pick-up rear window next to my H-D decal?  My dealer doesn't know of one, and , of course, the factory doesn't respond.
Something like the attachment, with "VANDERHALL" under it.

Hi all,

Who in Nevada insures the Vanderhalls? I am having trouble finding affordable quotes.

Thanks in advance.
