coy55boy Posted August 29, 2010 Share #1 Posted August 29, 2010 I just bought an '83 Venture Royale. But, it doesn't have some of the goodies I want. To start with, I want to add a trailer hitch but haven't been able to find a supplier. If you know one, please pass it along. I'd also be willing to pick up a used one in good shape. Also, any tips for trailers would be helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tinman Posted August 29, 2010 Share #2 Posted August 29, 2010 Can't help you with the hitch, but am sure other members will assist you with that. I just joined the group yesterday, and have already been in touch with some great people. You will do well, here. No egos, except mine, of course, and no attitudes. Welcome to the nut house!

Dano Posted August 30, 2010 Share #6 Posted August 30, 2010 I made my own for my 84 with the chrome rear bumper. built it with a small platform w/ stinger type hitch so I could carry a small cooler for the day trips. Could build you one if you want for around $150 painted black. Heres some pics , yeah, she's dirty, but I'm a rider, not a polisher! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a great price for a custom built hitch of an 83 1st Gen 1200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
