  1. May Get booed or even booted off the site. May be selling my venture because of my hands. I have moderately severe Carpel Tunnel in both hands. I had surgery in my left hand about 5 weeks ago and not much improvement. The bike is too heavy and I have almost dropped it on a number of occasions. It has the typical 1 gen second gear issue which I just go from 1st to 3rd. The bike runs strong, Idles great starts great and runs like a bat out of hell. It is leaking from the valve cover gaskets a bit. What would a fair asking price be for it?

  2. Hey Dave,

     

    Fellow Venture Rider here, Live on the Northend in Polaris. Not going to the Skid but would love to ride sometime. I still have a couple of week to heal from Hand surgery but sometime this summer would be cool.

  3. I may get boo'd for this but when I bought my Venture, I only paid $500.00 for it, Rode it home after push starting, Added a new battery and a used starter, has been a great bike ever since. Not trying to harsh any bodys buzz but I think asking price for a non working ride may be the non-selling factor.

  4. Thanks Earl for the comment on my bike, only paid $500.00 for it, and rode it to my house. That is an awsome link with pictures. with everyones suggestion, I should have it in know time at all.:thumbsup2:

  5. We have all been there, glad you lived to share this story. My Venture is my first Touring bike, Owned it for about 4 months now and still getting use to how much it weighs. Sometimes I look like a real goober when I pull up to a light trying to determin my center of balance.

  6. The guy I bought my venture from tried jump starting it the day I bought it. He fried the starter which I had to replace. I verified this by trying to jump it from the positive post directly on the starter. this bypasses your switches and relays. if you don't get anything, it's fried.
