Chaplain Dusty Posted July 25, 2015 Share #1 Posted July 25, 2015 Looking for the differences between the 1983 Venture verses the 1983 Venture Royale? Reliability? Performance? Handling? Power? Parts that are interchangeable? And anything else pertaining to these bikes? Chaplain Dusty:bagpipes-emoticon: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great White Posted July 26, 2015 Share #2 Posted July 26, 2015 Only significant differences are what coukd be considered "options" really. Royales got things like radio, CLASS suspension, etc. Otherwise, same bike. Some might say the standard is a little quicker and faster, but if true, its probably beciase the weight a little less. Main things to be concerned with on an 83 is not interchanging between standard and royale, bit that 83 had a number of unique to that year parts. Things like the tci... 83 are also reported to have failures in the frame at the rear suspension points and are subject to the second gear issue like all ventures before late 85. I have an 83 standard. Great bike, love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
