Looks nice but I never heard of it. What does it come with and the $ for it?

Sharp looking bike...appears to be bigger than a Rebel. Is it?

Kinda looks like a Magna, especially the exhaust (at least on the one side

) . Sweet little bike. Congrats.

Congrats Slim!

I like the Pewter color.

Much bigger than Rebel, 63" wheelbase, 29" seat height, and 419# dry weight. CW Buyer's Guide says it puts out enough power to keep ahead of urban traffic. From Korea, $4299 list price for 08 model. Looks like a V-Star 650 in size.

My MSF had a couple of these. Sorta neat looking, perhaps a little over-designed with those big plates bolted on top of the motor. Definitely bigger than the Rebels and GZ250s.

The instructors loved the bikes, and one of them said he wished Kymco would introduce one in the 600-800cc range.

There's a 250cc bike comparison here that covers it:

They liked the bike's styling, size, and stability at speed.

Cool looking bike! I'm still looking for mine. Happy riding.

Hey, it looks great!! I'm assuming that is stylistic design on the side of the tank, and not a big dent.

Lots of info about the Venox right here on the "non-forum side" of TMW: http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/reviews/ ... ruiser.htm
