sleepy2 Posted July 4, 2010 #1 Posted July 4, 2010 Finally got bike back from shop after replacing front and rear pulleys and drive belt on my 2000 Road Star. Boy do I miss my 87 Venture more and more!Have sunk more money and downtime into this bike in the 2 years I have owned in than the 7 years that I had the 87! Still looking to repair the87 but not too much luck in finding parts or parts bike--every time I do it is gone before I can contact about it,,then I hear that someone finds one really cheap later. I do have a line on a few parts but they are in North Bay and may have to take a ride on holidays to get them.
Evan Posted July 4, 2010 #2 Posted July 4, 2010 --- I do have a line on a few parts but they are in North Bay and may have to take a ride on holidays to get them. Hey Sleepy - Maybe I can help as I get to North Bay on a fairl regular basis. In fact, I am there now and will ride back to Toronto mid week. Let me know if you would like me to pick up some parts while I am here if they ar not too bulky to carry back on my bilke. We get to the Woodstocl areas fairly often to visit my wife's family or I could drop them off at Marcarl's sometime.
sleepy2 Posted July 4, 2010 Author #3 Posted July 4, 2010 oldguy(Will) is the one in North Bay that has the parts.He has a bike and parts he is selling but says I could have the extra pieces.So far he says he has a rad and the black dash parts for radio & C/B, he is checking to see what else but these are the 3 things for now.I'm not sure if you would be able to carry these without damage to the rad or mostly your seat. My friend from work say's he would be willing to go with me if necessary so we could have a ride.I'm not sure what to do yet.I am waiting to hear back.Thanks!!!!!!!!
Trader Posted July 5, 2010 #4 Posted July 5, 2010 I deleted my post thinking you were looking for parts for the newer bike!!! "Thirdbike" on this board might have some parts. I found a wrecker north of Kingston that has an old VR....what do you need? I could see if they have it.
sleepy2 Posted July 8, 2010 Author #5 Posted July 8, 2010 Thanks for your reply------Mostly anything on front of bike to side-panels except front wheel and frame. Body,lights, rad, console pieces ,mirrors,etc. Haven't gone into dismantling [ATTACH]47700[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]47701[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]47702[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]47703[/ATTACH] as yet but here are some pictures of damage
