robclark63 Posted February 22, 2013 #1 Posted February 22, 2013 Well I just thought I would post this up... I bought a 1988 Venture Royale last Sept. It was a little rough but seemed pretty good mechanically. I rode it until November and put it up in the garage. I stripped the bike and went to work! I posted up here not too long ago about some cowling parts and I have tracked them all down!! I have most of them in and there are a few on the way:) I started some fiberglass work on the fairing and it is starting to come around too. I ordered a front brake kit and rear kit from skydoc to make it stop better. Just put a new rear tire on her and also new rear bearings. Getting ready to strip the anti dive off because it has progressive springs too. In the fall I wanted to upgrade the clutch, so I put a barnett kit into it. I also replace the clutch slave cylinder with a new one the previous owner gave me... Oh, and I changed all fluids too and have a carbtune coming... I can't wait to put her all back together and get that first ride of the season in!! I hope it performs as good as I am hoping it will. This is the only place I could think of to post this and have some others like it:cool10:
