Now for something entirely different


Recommended Posts

83 Rat chopper Venture. Manual Vmax boost. Homemade pipes, forward controls, and everything else. VTX radiator. Misc. lighting. Well I guess you get the idea. Finally out of the basement and down the road. I can now tie my shoes without bending over.

Is there a fuel tank hidden beneath all that stunning beauty?

Yup. It's in the usual location-under the seat. Just about the only thing I didn't really change. Just blasted out the rust and coated the inside with nasty red stuff.

Man, what does that beast sound like???

We need a sound sample!

 

A picture of your manual Vboost would also be cool . . .

Looks like fat old man Vmax. I'm 6'3" , 300 lbs, and approaching 60.

I've been holding on to a Vmax wiring harness. You didn't whack a Venture harness I bet.

With those filters and that exhaust, what jet sizes did you go with in the carbs?

So - my friend eagleeye stopped by and told me that you guys were interested in multilated ventures. It has been awhile since I posted but I paid my $12 and relogged in. It has been a few years but I am still hacking on the beast. Here are a few pics.

Tried a couple of times to post more pics of my friend bree. If this one dies, I give up and disappear for another couple of years.

You may have noticed my new forks that I'm working on. This is an old design that goes back to early BMW's and beyond.

Yeah, I noticed that leading link. Some of the homebuilt trike guys have been building a "one off" version of it and lovin' it.
