I remember when I test rode the 2010 Voyager I have now, I had a similar reaction as I approached higher revs. Maybe it is a characteristic of the bike. I will have to re-test to make sure.

I had that happen once. The problem turned out to be a corroded/loose battery terminal. When it was cleaned and tightened everything worked fine.

I had some trouble like that some years ago. A few shots of "contact cleaner" took care of the problem. Did not have to take anything apart. Do a Google search. Many suppliers available.

I'm a bit late to the party but I am curious. I just had a belt give out on a 2010 Voyager with 73,000 miles. Is this normal or in the right range? I have a very good dealer/mechanic who has been...

I had a 1975 Goldwing. At the time Honda did not have a stock fairing (or for a few years after) so it is probably a Vetter. That's what I had, although mine was white with gold swooshes. I think...

Silly thought, but I wonder if possibly something shorted out in the 7-segment display for that digit and is leaving all segments "lit".

I don't know what is wrong with the handbrake switches on the Voyager(s). I have had mine replaced once a year like clockwork. Luckily it is under an extended warranty. It is interesting that the...

Don't believe the dashboard readout. They are notoriously inaccurate. You need to calculate by checking the actual gallons used and the actual miles ridden.

I put a Dunlop American Elite (180/65) on my Voyager. I haven't worn it out yet but it looks like it will get about three times the mileage of the Bridgestone Exedra Max that I had on previously or...

On my 2010 Voyager I lost the antenna and still was able to pick up the local WX from 50 miles away or more. If you still have the warranty in effect you might want to check with the dealer to see if...

So far, I'm having good luck with Dunlop American Elite rear tires (180/65). They are WAY better than the Bridgestones (either the OEMs or the Exedra Max) that I was using before.
