Chicoman Posted December 3, 2008 Share #1 Posted December 3, 2008 (edited) I found a Yamaha brochure from 1990 that lists accessories for the Venture, Virago and V-Max. The brochure is printed on coated stock and measures 17"X22" and is folded to 11"X17". I scanned the cover page and the two pages on the Venture accessories. The brochure doesn't list the price but it does give us an idea of what was available way back when. Enjoy............ I just noticed I posted this in the wrong forum. My first post and I blew it. http://pic80.picturetrail.com/VOL964/3796155/21096246/345630069.jpg http://pic80.picturetrail.com/VOL964/3796155/21096246/345630055.jpg http://pic80.picturetrail.com/VOL964/3796155/21096246/345630048.jpghttp://pic80.picturetrail.com/VOL964/3796155/21096246/345630061.jpg Edited December 3, 2008 by Chicoman Posted in wrong forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradT Posted December 3, 2008 Share #2 Posted December 3, 2008 Hard to read but it is neat when you find an old brochure (on anything with a motor). Somone gave me some pictures of a 86 brochure, and I think I posted it here somewhere. BRad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbrood Posted December 4, 2008 Share #3 Posted December 4, 2008 Hope Rich doesn't mind... I pasted them together (as original), increased the resolution and offer them here... about 2 meg file size each... http://www.bergall.org/temp/venture/venture-line-90-1.jpg http://www.bergall.org/temp/venture/venture-line-90-2.jpg You can copy them and view with a photoviewer for a good closeup...

jimbucks Posted December 11, 2008 Share #9 Posted December 11, 2008 Keep the part numbers. Your local Yamaha dealer has the ability to do a search through his "Find a Part" on his YDS system to see if any dealer is sitting out there with any NOS -parts or accesories. You can also do a part search on the yamaha-motors.com search for a part. One never knows, it may be something they're still using on a current model run.

Condor Posted December 11, 2008 Share #11 Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) WOW!!!!!! What a find, and thanks for posting the brochure Rich. And thank you Mike for putting it all back together. When I bought the '91 it had a lot of chrome I never knew existed, and have always wondered just how much chrome had actually been added to it. Now it looks like it has 98% of what was available. The one part I need to replace I now have the part number and can maybe get my local dealer to do a national search??? This has been a fun morning!!!!!!! BTW: Just in case someone here might have one laying around??? It's #11 in the brochure. Part # ABA-26HCD-30-00. Right hand side. I don't care about the condition...rust is OK...just as long as it's semi-straight. I can rechrome it. Edited December 11, 2008 by Condor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynodon Posted December 11, 2008 Share #12 Posted December 11, 2008 Thanks for posting! When I bought some new side grill vents (new used ones) they came with chrome accents. Didn't realize they were an official Yamaha part! Neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
