1983 Venture Parts Bike

[thirdbike]

Someone on eBay was looking for an '83 parts bike per link at bottom of forum to ‘86 Venture. Can't contact that person through eBay site but it just so happens that I have one. Maybe someone knows the person.

 

Bike is a 1983 plain Venture with 74,000 kilometers (about 46,000 miles). I was planning to restore it but have decided that I am parting this bike out or may sell as complete unit.

 

 

Mechanical:

This bike is complete and everything works. I haven't taken anything apart as prospective buyer may want to hear it run etc. The motor starts right up and runs strong but does need a tune up. Bike runs through all gears well. 2nd gear seems good even under acceleration (can't tell if repaired). Clutch is good. Battery is new this spring (but can't be shipped). Frame looks good. Suspension still held air. Wheels spin true. Rear-end final drive appears sound. Tires are worn. The wiring harness is intact and complete. Good radiator and cooling system looks OK. Instrument cluster is fully operative but lens cover is cracked. All chrome parts are dull and aluminum surfaces are weathered. Sorry, I need the exhaust crossover. Mufflers are rotted out. Brake controls are operating but need new pads. There is a brand new ignition switch with keys.

 

Body:

All three pieces of luggage are complete and have no cracks. One bag has small chip on backside. Upper fairing is complete but left side has a couple of broken tabs with a clean crack on underside that can be easily repaired. If requested, I can repair same to customer's satisfaction. Left lower fairing is cracked. Left inner fairing is broken. Both left and right consoles are badly broken containing Alpine car radio as replacement (assume as junk). As this bike is a plain Venture it lacks CLASS system and CB. All lights and lens are intact. The chrome center of left-side cover is marked from shifter. Chrome on both mirrors is marked on outside edge. Have both single and rocker type shifters. Frames for driver running-boards need re-chroming or painting. Passenger pegs. No engine guards. Gas cover has missing lock.

The engine can only be sold as complete unit including tranny. A full set of photos are available for interested parties. Best offers decide.
