First 'Venture Max'?

[tooldood]

In the 80's, I had the magazine containing the article with the first conversion that I had heard of creating the Venture Max. 

Unfortunately,  the memory chip in my brain has deleted what magazine issue it was from. Can anyone help an old guy out?

Here is a link to one article about one of the converted Royal Stars, but not a Venture model.

When I 1st joined there was a guy on this forum, Tweety, with a bright yellow 1st gen that was hopped up with v-max parts.  If I remember the engine fit just fine but it was a mater of the air box (vboost?) from the vmax that was hard to get resolved.

Yes.  He went by Dingy and has name is Gary Dingus.  Haven’t heard from him in years.

I am pretty sure Gary sold Tweety Bird and Sylvester, not sure if he ever finished Sylvester or not, he was riding a Goldwing the last I talked with him, you may find him over on the GL Forum, but he never did post to often.
