I´ve heard the rumour, that a big(2000cc) motor may be coming for the new Venture, but as a tourer, I don´t think I´d want to go back to air cooling in slow traffic. I´m sure they could make the V twin powerful enough for a 800 lb motorcycle, but they´d have to offer the same 5 year unlimited waranty as the RSV before I´d consider one.
