Looking for early model Venture accessories

[coy55boy]

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.

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!

Thanks Bryan. Do you know what the difference is between the different models?

Sorry,

Not familiar with the first gens, can't help you there.

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!

That is a great price for a custom built hitch of an 83 1st Gen 1200.

Thanks for the offer, Dano. But that rear fender doesn't look anything like mine.
