Fixed mine last week it was not as bad but getting there
its been only 250 miles so far so good
I used epoxy and a metal mesh drywall patch as reinforcement on the edges
cut in strips and set in the epoxy clean it first
I mad a rectangle plate and used both mounting holes at the rear of the trunk
with a piece of sheet metal under the whole base and adhered with silicone
then just a few rivets
drill the cracks at the ends stops them from spreading then about every inch and get the epoxy inside the cracks let it dry over night
Then work on the big stuff when everything is somewhat held together
I will take a couple of pictures and post them when I am home this evening
You can check eBay I have seen a few trunks for around 400.00

Post some pics dave!
I need to get it back together first
been busy with the Venture I picked up
-
Thanks I picked up a couple of clamps
Got 1 speaker on how I like it
Now I just need to run some power and I am good to go

I purchased a while ago a shark audio system
I could use a couple of ideas on mounting them picture if you have them
Are they any good if you have used them
It consists of two speakers an amp and power cord with a fuse to run to the battery
I want to mount on my tour deluxe
My options are a P clamp on the handle bar or drill and mount them to the windshield
I prefer the handle bar mount
The amp has a handle bar mount on it
Since I have the bike apart it is a good time to do any wiring
-
Not a bad Idea
I know I would look to see if any members were available in an area I was traveling through
Its always nice to meet another friend
I like to say I have friends I haven't even met yet
-
I just purchased a 2000 venture
I could use a mount and wire setup for the zumo 550
Currently I have a 550 on my rstd all I want to do is be able to swap the GPS from one to the other as needed
Thought I would ask here before looking elsewhere
Anyone have one or point me in a good direction
eBay is next
Thanks all

You know that posting the trunk pic does not cover you !You know the rules about getting a new bike!
Back together I hope it works
-
I'm happy that you got it, and am sure that your repair will hold it fine .
Did you keep the tour deluxe ir trade it?
I will keep it I like it to much to let it go at the moment
When we are sure the Venture in trouble free
Then we may
It paid for and runs great
Maybe I can get Robin to ride it
Thanks man
-

Check the tires, pull the trunk liner up and check for cracks and pull the trigger!
There were a bunch of cracks
I bought it anyway took it apart
Drilled the ends of the cracks to keep from spreading
Sanded all the edges
Opened the cracks Filled Witt epoxy
Made a base from 22 ga sheet metal and will mount it to the bottom outside of the trunk
I will replace the washers with 22 ga strips and use both bolt holes note the one like original
Thanks for the tip

Hello all...
For all who know me I have been saying I will get a Venture when I see one that just calls me
Today might be it.
Some input would help
I love my 2006 RSTD so I am in no rush to purchase
From a dealer I have been using for 5 years now and trust selling for an acquaintance
2000 Venture Red two tone
28,000 miles
Asking 5995.00
I offered 5000.00
She wants 5300.00
Spotless no damage I can find
Kuryakyn grips - Radiator grill cover - Bub Pipes and original included
2 helmets with all electronics -Passenger armrest - Saddle bags rails - highway pegs
Serviced and Rebuilt Carburetors just done over the winter
Seemed to start up OK
Owner Passed away 3 years ago it has sat in the garage
Been at the dealer for about 3 months now

Accurate and fun to shoot
I added a red dot scope to it just try it out
Taking it apart to clean take a few times to get it down
Robin says it is to heavy for her
I have a Smith & Wesson M&P 22 I like the full size of this model
The Ruger sr22 in a real nice gun to shoot as well I rented one a few times
22 Ammo is now place to be found around here
I decided to not even purchase another gun until ammo is available
The S&W wesson 357 is a GREAT gun. I have a model 19 with a 6" barrel that I bought when I lived in NJ. (carry permits are impossible to get there) Very accurate gun. I taught my son to shoot with it & he was able after a while to bullseye targets while shooting from the hip.Now as far as the 22lr is concerned choose wisey & research heavily. I have found that many 22lr semi auto jam & have ejection issues unless you use high velosity ammo like CCI.
A GREAT target 22lr is the Ruger mark3 competition,

This gun has flawless operation. I'm sure there are others but these I can personally vouch for.

When I was looking at a trailer
Harbor Freight here in Columbus told me
If I order it and have it shipped to a store no shipping charge
A friend owns on of those and likes
It wont hurt to ask
-
That Looks Sharp
I have been considering it for a while
I haven't seen any I like or want to over pay for
My bikes paid for and I don't feel like selling it to add a few grand to get something else
Did you have any problems with the install
Any hidden costs or issues ?
I have a stock 06 TD
-
Been pulling a trailer for about 4 years now
No problems weight is about 400 pounds loaded
Drive with caution just like anything else Safety First
Leave stopping room remember its back there
Tongue weight makes a difference on handling
Be Safe

Seeing the sights and catching a few pictures a good lunch
and spending a day with some good friends
50 miles or 200 miles in between
I like a leisurely pace and some time to soak in the sights is my preference
That can still be a long days ride
-
Happy Birthday Jeff
Have A Great Day...
-
I hope you had a Great Day --- Happy Birthday

Mine went at about 35,000
It was giving me problems long b4 it I replaced
It took a little convincing but I got it covered under warranty
At First Yamaha said no due to it being an on and off problem
Ride Safe
Dave
