Puc,
Thanks for your interest. Right now my interest is to make this bike rideable and safe at the minimum cost. My main ride is a '90 GL1500, reliable as a mom. I have this '83 Venture and 2 other Ventures I am putting on the street because I like V4 engines and old touring bikes. Once I know it, or one of the others is reliable, I might think about improving it. For now, it is an interesting project. I also have an ST1100 for the curves and a PC800 for trips to the store. Enjoying being 76 and having the time to do this.
