I never liked it anyway. All I ask is for shipping which should be next to nothing. Now I just have to find it. You can NEVER have too much safety chrome! You have alot of the unique chrome pieces I have. I sold a set of wheel covers on ebay that came with my bike but were never mounted. Never understood how they mounted on the wheel.

yamadawg Posted October 12, 2009 Share #13 Posted October 12, 2009 Here's another bike with lots of bling..... All that bike needs is the Ventureline Front fender light like shown in the catalog cuts above. I've got one, still in the original shrink wrap package, that I bought and never got around to using. I did not want to cover up the filigree on the fender. I just don't know what it would be worth... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheradan Posted October 12, 2009 Share #14 Posted October 12, 2009 I'm looking for some of that stuff for a 1st gen mark 2. Trunk rack, front fender rail, saddle bag rails etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't know what it would be worth... I see them appear on Ebay every once in a while. I don't think they bring all that much, but I could be wrong. What I am really in need of is a #11 RH. The bike didn't have one due to some bike trauma at the hands ofthe PO. MOF the whole right upper is in really bad shape but it photographs well..!!. I did see a #11 on Ebay new in the wrap and put a rediculously high snipe bid in on it, and I was out bid by a guy in europe. Dang that euro/dollar conversion!! Just because, figure out what you'd need for the light and let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condor Posted October 13, 2009 Share #17 Posted October 13, 2009 dang it condor. I was going to say the same thimg. David Go for it Dave. I really don't have a burning desire to own the light. Just thought it would be nice to have. So I'll bow out. Yamadawg, ya got that?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yamadawg Posted October 13, 2009 Share #18 Posted October 13, 2009 Thanks Condor, I got it. I wasn't really teeing it up for sale since I have no idea what it's worth. My wife bought it a few years back to use on the '83 but I sold it before installing it. Then I didn't have the heart to bore a hole through the fender on the '88 with the neat little design we'd had painted on. I'd like for someone to get some use out of it though. We have been looking to see what we paid for it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
painterman67 Posted October 13, 2009 Share #19 Posted October 13, 2009 let me know and if I can I;ll work it into the budget. I cant seem to get enough light on the old girl. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
