I do believe I would take it all apart and sell every piece if I could get the prices being noted on ebay. I would then buy me another 1st gen, a 2nd gen and pay my house off. I have never sold anything on ebay, so I don't know the particulars, but does it cost anything to list something if it does not sell? I am seeing things like $164 for one mirror off an 87, and we aren't even talking new here. I am also seeing many parts that most just throw or give away because there is so little need for them with outragous prices on them. Normally, when I am surfing Venture parts on ebay, I always go "auction only" and "ending soon". Usually this sorts out most of this stuff, but being bored at lunch here at work and looking at all catagories, I am astounded at what people think they have. And, if thay are not asking rediculously high prices up front, they are wanting extremely high shipping costs. OK, I will quit venting as I did get a TCI last week for an 84/90 1st gen for $16.50 and about $6 shipping. RandyA

Lately I have read a number of posts about individuals regretting switching from the 1st Gen Venture to the 2nd Gen Venture. I owned 4 1st Gen Ventures. An 84, an 87, an 84 straight Venture then another 84 Venture Royale. I loved the bike. My wife and I road from Windsor, Ontario to BC on it and other long distance trips as well. Now I am on my second, 2nd generation bike. I came back to it because I enjoy/ed the ride so much. Yes it is a bit top heavy but other than that I can't think of any reason why I would go back to a 1st Gen Venture. I am curious to ask how many people here have come from a 1st Gen and have no regrets? Quite simply, I love my RSV. Chris in Red Deer, AB

Need a fast answer... What is a good price for 2nd Gen Saddle bag rails ???? NEW Thanks for any input

When ya trike a Venture do you use the swing arm? I was thinking of trying to find a way to install grease zerks in the swing arm so it doesn't have to be disassembled to grease the bearings. Does anyone have a 2nd gen rear swing arm that they would like to donate to the project. I would write an article and document the steps taken with pictures for our technical library. Any takers?

OK gents, I need to tow my 1st gen VR in a trailer. My sport bike handlebar harness won't reach across the buck-horn bars. What is the recommended method for tie-down? -
Got to meet up with Elmicko and his wife Saturday for an absolutely beautiful 70º ride thru the country. Not only was the ride great, but the 2nd gen he just got is stunning with the paint job it has. It has been painted deep blue with blue flames and it is beautiful. Now, I could fall in love with a 2nd gen like that. Wow, did I really say that? Anyway, it was great, even though when I met up with them I had just dropped a cylinder and had to go back to Advance Auto for some spray I used in the jets in the top of the carbs and a can of Sea Foam. Once I did that, I was back to running good again. Mick, ya done real good. RandyA -
And got my other 1st Gen out. Tucked "Brown Sugar" away in Skids garage and got "Ugly" out. Think she was mad at me for ignoring her for the summer. Coughed,farted and burped most of the way home til she got over it and started to run about 1/2 like she should. Guess I'll have to baby her for a while Ain't nothing wrong with having the Two Fastest Ventures in the area!!!

Well the 1st Gen found a new home today. I was a little sad to see her go, but Ol' Blue just fits me better. I sold it to my cousin and her husband so she's still in the family. They're stepping up from a cruiser to a touring bike, I think they'll be very happy.

I found this add while looking around for a bike for the wife. The first gen is a bit tall for her. Shes 5'3''. This is not my bike, just thought I'd share my find. http://www.lejeuneyardsales.com/item17832896.html?itemId=17832896&src=SEARCH -

I have a discontinued piece of chrome cover that I want to put on ebay but I don't know what it's called to label it correctly. It's the piece that goes in place of the stock horn on the 2nd gen. Kinda upside "L" shaped?

I recieved this from a friend and not sure what it goes to. Freebird said maybe a 1st gen but he wasn't sure. -
I know I have seen some before, can't find any. I know there was one that for sale about a year ago. No I don't want one, just some pics.

I would like to fix the lower left fairing on the loaner bike my buddy loaned me while I'm doing some repairs on my 1st gen (As a gesture of appreciation for the loan, I didn't damage it.). The bike I'm riding is a 2007 midnight Venture so I am looking for one in black. Does anyone have one they would like to sell or know where I can find one. I'd would really rather avoid ordering one from a stealership if I can help it..

Are the radio units ( amp and tuner) the same between all 1st gen Ventures? The radio in my 83 VR has given up and I need a replacement. I see some on EBAY for other years and they look the same buy will they plug into my amp and radio display and work?

Looking at a first gen for Kitty - has a bad first gear. Have heard of second gear problems, but not first. What is the availabilty and approximate cost of the parts? What else do you have to replace when you take it apart? Thanks -
I've decided I'm going to add a 2nd gen to the stable (I've got some plans for the 1st gen, but I'll save that for later). I know there's some nice ones in the classifides on here, but if anybody knows of a nice one under $8k within a few hours of East TN, please let me know. Thanks!
