That would be sweet. I'm in wooster. I'm getting ready to attempt to do my rear pivot bolts and any kind of advice would be very welcomed.

I'm a newer member and I'm completely new to the venture life. So I know nothing about them obviously. I'm interested in finding others in ohio that know about these bikes. I am in need of someone to look mine over and tell me everything that mine needs. So I can try and fix it. I love riding it but am worried to ride far because I don't know what issues it has already.

If that fails, don't be afraid to ask questions. It's not for nothing that we learned these bikes inside and out and @saddlebum needs to have something to do.
I rode it a decent bit this past weekend and I knew the air ride wasn't functioning properly. It gives an error 1 code. I haven't looked into it yet. But sat night I was at a light and it started smoking out of the pipes. And some came up in front of me. So now I'm worried

sign up as a full fledged member you will not regret it. As far as clueless goes your in the right spot to deal with that temporary affliction you will not find a more knowledgeable nor helpful group than the ones you will find here. Some may even show up on your doorstep to lend a hands on hand if they are close enough and you are in dire need of such assistance. Nobody here is perfect but the combined knowledge of all surpasses anything you you may need.
Thank you I more then likely will. I'm in love with it. But I'd like to get it to someone that knows them well to have them look it all over and tell me what it needs.

What is your issue with the clutch?
I figured that out. It wasn't the clutch. It was a newbie mistake lol. Kickstand switch haha.

A couple of things. How many miles on it? The '83 - mid '85 had a soft washer in the transmission that will eventually cause your to lose second gear. The other major thing is that the from, under the drivers seat, can hold water and eventually rust from the inside and crack. They are great bikes though. Enjoy.
It has a little over 25k on it. I need assistance with it as I know nothing about bikes. I'm trying but I'm clueless. I rode it once after getting it running. But I'm having issues with the clutch I think

Hello everyone. I'm new to the venture life. I've wanted this 83 for 4 years and finally got it. I had to do carb work when I got it and I just rode it for the first time. And I'm in love. I know nothing about them yet but I'm eager to learn. Are there any things that I should look for and are there any members in ohio that I could talk to for advice?

I have an 83 venture royale that I need a mechanic to work on. It needs the pivot bolt replaced and it had a smoking issue that I need addressed. Is there anyone that could help me out. I'd attempt but I don't really have time.
