UPDATE: Due to the beautiful Fall weather we have been having I have been keeping storing the bike for the winter on hold for a bit. I have recently done a round trip from Toronto to Ottawa on my Venox and all I can say is, I am very impressed and happy with the bike. It definitely doesn't look like a 250 nor ride like one. It looks and rides like a much bigger bike. Nobody believes me it's only a 250.

Since purchasing the Venox, I have installed Highway Bars from Tucmoto and plan to upgrade the rear sprocket to 44 teeth for next Spring, which seems to be the mod that most Venox owners have done and very glad they did.
I'm also going to put on a set of new tires, which I'm hoping to pick up for a good deal at the upcoming motorcycle show in Toronto in December.
I plan on keeping my Venox for at least another 2 full seasons before even looking at getting a "bigger" bike, which to be honest, I don't really need as the Venox more than meets my needs and expectations.
It's only my ego I would be stroking if I do and I've checked that at the door, a long time ago.
Truthfully we all like our egos stroked once in a while and "if" I do decided to go bigger, I would still want to keep it under 1000cc. I like the Yamaha VStar 650 classic as well as the Kawasaki 900 vulcan classic and I'm on the fence regarding the "love it or hate it" Hyosung GV650.
