I sold my 85 Venture Royale with the two tone brown paint about 2 years ago, and basically completely quit using the site. Well im back in the Venture saddle again Im purchasing 2 identical 2 tone gold 83 Royales. I purchased both with a total price of $1000!!! One has 65,000 miles and the other has 28,000. The one with 28k doesnt drive because the carburator is plugged, and I intend to ride the one with 65K home. I believe i came across a great deal. The one with more miles needs a speedometer cable and 2nd gear is out of it, which i intend to repair. It also has a bad rear master cylinder. It has the Radio deck and CB with the electronic air shocks, but the back one you have to pump up with a compressor. The one with less miles needs a few pieces to put back together, a carb rebuild (which i intend to do). I will also replace the 2nd gear clip in this transmission too, before it can go bad. It also needs a rear master cylinder and a rear tire. Neither of these bikes has cruise, which I intend to fix. But i plan on putting the better of the two parts onto one bike with less miles and have 1 really nice venture, and the other a "bad weather venture" or sell it for more than what i bought both bikes for. I have a few pictures of the bikes, if anyone wants to see.

I recently picked up 2 identical gold Venture 1200's for $1000. I was pretty excited with my purchase since only 1 thing that was wrong really caught my eye. Neither of them have the cruise control like my 85 1200 did. I was wondering if it would be possible to get the necessary parts from a newer venture, or even buy the royale star venture cruise to modify to work for my bike. I have a spare wiring harness that was designed for the CB but i do not know if it has the correct plug for the cruise control. Any information or if anyone has done this and could lend me some advice would be much appreciated!!! Thank you! -CJ -
Hello guys, its been a long time since I've been on a bike, or even ridden a venture! Well after going through a yamaha v-star 650 and a honda shadow 1100, i'm again looking to trade for a venture. This time i'm getting a 1300 hundred because i would like more options and better transmission. Dad bought a royale star tour deluxe and it really made me want my venture back but hey guys, im back in the saddle again

I am selling my bike for 3K. Its an 85 VR with all the trimmins with 39,000 mi. on it. I love it, but i want something that more suits my age, i'll enjoy a new venture when i have the time and money to enjoy one. Right now, I'm keeping it in the family and getting a V-Star. 3K is alot, so you can tell how much i want to sell it. I'll probably be enjoying this bike for awhile longer!

I would suppose if it was on the right date when is it?

Going to the east coast and back, gonna be a sleepless voyage. Getting $500, and not getting any hotels or camping just gonna eat at Mc. Donalds, gotta save the cash... should be an adventure!

I ride around bear foot sometimes in town.

I like break 30, not beer 30. If anyone gets that, then your pretty smart!

About %30 of the time when i press my rear shock button. It reads zero, when i press the "M" button to fill it up to about 50, it goes up to 50 really fast on the computer, but not in the shock itself. It does it alot more frequently in the cold. What does this? also after pressing the M and it "fills" when i press the rear button again it says 15 and does it over.... i have an 85 venture royale... anyone know what to do?

Well, i took dads 1500 and rode down to missouri! Just figured i'd stop in and say hi, I miss my Venture!!!!
-
I know that the 1200's have bad second gears. In second gear if i romp on it it's starts to jump. If i ever go quick anymore i just skip over to third. But either way its a pain. My bikes only got 37000 on it. I know that it is fixable, but for how much... Thank you!

In my personal opinion, its a pain in the ass to put your helmet on everytime you ride. Thats why i hate being younger than 18 and living in nebraska. I always take my bike everywhere, even when i go swimming. I've ridden in trunks 20 miles before, its fun. Just dont let the wind pull your shorts up too high. The girls are usually in awe

"Ugly" Is the same colour, year(?), and is it a royale? But yeah, that's the same exact biek that i have, except i bet you dont have clutch problems!
-
Too bad i wasn't on lately, i coulda totally used that! I'll buy it off of whoever gets it

Owee

If you dumped it in a physical spot, just pick it up. It takes quite awhile till mercury poison sets it, i've played with it before and vouche it doesn't do anything right away.

A very good person on the website did me a huge favor. When i asked him the price he told me to pay it foreward. That was always one of my favorite movies in high school, and i really like the philosophy behind it. I believe that the whole pay it foreward thing could possibly be a philosophy that could equal up to world peace. So if anyone does something nice for you, just remember, pay it foreward. -CJ
