Where did you find the conversion kit at? I think that I may do this ... Probably a lot easier than trying to rebuild and clean the old one
Got this new to me bike. LOTS OF POSSIBILITIES!
in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)

So, I got this bike, it's a 1983 Yamaha Venture Royale 1200. the guy I bought it off of told me that it ran when he parked it, but the field it was in flooded and it was under water for about a week and a half. It sat for about another 7 months before I got it for $200. the engine and the starter were seized from rust. I did manage to get the engine unstuck, and I traded the old starter out for a new one. now the bike turns over but won't start. any tips would be awesome!
im really excited about this bike. i want to bobber it out and make it cafe racer style with the round headlight and solo gauges.
also, this is my first bike and all of my firsts have been projects (bicycle, car, girlfriend lol)
i will try to post pics, however i do that
