ken Posted March 4, 2011 #1 Posted March 4, 2011 (edited) Well I've spent the winter doing all the PM's I could do. Just finished with the new tires, brakes and the Star Glide conversion. So here are the pics. http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg318/2057ken/006-1.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg318/2057ken/005.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg318/2057ken/002-1.jpg Edited March 4, 2011 by ken
elmicko Posted March 4, 2011 #3 Posted March 4, 2011 That is very nice. I would love to pick up a second Venture sometime and do a similar conversion. I've actually been thinking in doing something in a "dreamcicle" (orange / cream) color format. You did a great job on that bike. I wonder if it would be possible to do it with a removable trunk and rear seat. Hmmmmm....
ibents Posted March 4, 2011 #5 Posted March 4, 2011 Thats one sweet looking ride, a job very well done. Ian
YamaDuck Posted March 4, 2011 #7 Posted March 4, 2011 Hey I just noticed somethin. Why did you leave the rear passenger floorboards on? Inquiring minds want to know.
felix Posted March 4, 2011 #8 Posted March 4, 2011 great lookin bike, i could go for that besides my wing:twing:
ken Posted March 4, 2011 Author #13 Posted March 4, 2011 Hey I just noticed somethin. Why did you leave the rear passenger floorboards on? Inquiring minds want to know. I can toss the back seat on in about 3 minutes so the boss can go for a ride.
Jazzmann320 Posted March 4, 2011 #15 Posted March 4, 2011 Awesome job.... to bad Yamaha didn't make the trunk a quick disconnect unit... love the look ... I had a Valkyrie Interstate before going to my 04 RSV and did the same conversion. I would love to get another RSV and do the same thing.. some day.. after I get done doing everything I want to with the 04.. like that will ever end..
