  7. With a V boost you have a " 1300 V MAX " but you need little modification ( see picture), and it' s hard to put carburator cause frame is différent on V max. http://img15.hostingpics.net/thumbs/mini_377465vboost.jpg Frame 1200 venture , 1200 V max http://1200venturev4.unblog.fr/2013/08/08/xxxxxxxxxx-cadre-venture-vmax-xxxxxxxxxxxxx/

  13. In first I have put V boost on a stock engine 1200, then I put cylinder head V max on my 1200 engine venture, this is french' s cams (more power in low), carburators are 1200 venture with jet of 1300, I short cut air box because too hight with pipes V max, and modification inside.My V boost is manuel I open with the command of choke, you open when you want, and it' s funny have twos accelerators........it' s not a " dragster " but I have win fews power. http://img15.hostingpics.net/thumbs/mini_820984vb1.jpg http://img15.hostingpics.net/thumbs/mini_24568534vb.jpg http://img15.hostingpics.net/thumbs/mini_203370vb2.jpg Michel
  14. It' s a strange " construction " if you want something who run well, take pipes and v boost of a v max. http://img15.hostingpics.net/thumbs/mini_2892401003755.jpg Michel

  17. This side car was made by a french constructor, is name " C.J.S. " model : LOTUS ( now is closed like many others unfortunatelly..... ) if you like side ,here a link with many side car of all the world http://www.side-car-club-francais.com/index2.htm go to infos and panorama side car michel
  18. On my side car I have put battery between moto / side. it s a car battery 35 ampéres, and it s good for starter; 12 years I made this and no trouble with stator, many people put battery (car) in the boot of the side car, I have see one in the top case:no-no-no: but it s not very good for me.............. michel http://img15.hostingpics.net/thumbs/mini_98113712V.jpg
  19. I want just say, that blog talks only 1200 venture , in " France " the 1200 come in 1984 to 1988, only two versions " XVZT and XVZTD ". 1300 arrive in 1989. It' s the reason that you see on the blog some modifications on the 1200 that you don t have in américa , cause 1200 was stop in 1985. In France no cruise control for the 1200 until 1988, it s appears in 1989 with 1300. only one model of instrument panel ( whithout gears indicators ) The last year ( 1988 ) 1200 receive electric fork. No version XVZ DN (1985) in france. Soon I' LL post new articles in the blog. Michel ( I hope you understand me): Malade:
  20. on my blog I have put differences between MK1 and MKII... ( sorry is t french, but with pictures is t easy to understand). http://1200venturev4.unblog.fr/2010/10/04/pont-arriere/ http://1200venturev4.unblog.fr/2010/12/06/xxxxxxxxxx-bras-oscillant-xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ http://1200venturev4.unblog.fr/2011/04/03/xxxxxxxxx-biellette-suspension-xxxxxxxxxxx/
  21. Sorry but I have always check compression engine hot, before I works in mecanic , and we take pression like this. that right it s not indipensable to remove carburators...... In France 1200 venture: 1984 to 1988 1300 venture: 1989 to 1993 Here a picture of a 1200 venture 1988 http://img15.hostingpics.net/thumbs/mini_9166831988.jpg michel
  22. What I made when I check compression. 1 : I start the bike for have a hot engine. 2 : I remove the carburators ( for have a maximun air entrance) 3 : I remove the 4 spark plug. 4: " short out all the spark plug wires to not harm the CDI box " In this condition I have this on my 1988 1200 venture 1 / 13,5 kg 2/ 14 kg 3/ 13 kg 4/ 14 kg michel
  23. Before the 1200 XVZ I have a gold wing 1100 , and in comparison the flat four is " anemic ' face V4 The 1200 gold make a little better, but 1200 venture stay WINNER:cool10: http://1200venturev4.unblog.fr/1200-xvz-1100-gl-aspencade/ ps: sorry for my english
  24. In France they comes early 1989 to 1992 " 1300 TD " I thinks that' s the same except no: '" hazard and reserve lighting unit '" but perhaps other things............. http://imageshack.us/a/img41/6733/50361624.jpg Uploaded with ImageShack.us Michel
