nscrfn3 Posted November 20, 2011 #1 Posted November 20, 2011 I'm looking for a set of carb covers for my Venture. Apparently they have been discontinued. Anyone know how to do a dealer search? My dealer says he could not find them. Part no is STR 4XY 27 42 02 Thanks Mike
XV1100SE Posted November 20, 2011 #2 Posted November 20, 2011 They don't list it as being discontinued so not sure if they have it... http://www.preferredpowersports.com/custompage.asp?pg=370-282-211-568180 http://www.speedsupplies.com/accessorylistingdetailpurch.asp?item=8660
ragtop69gs Posted November 21, 2011 #4 Posted November 21, 2011 This part is no longer available I sent out at least 100 emails to dealers all over the country looking for a set, got back a few replies saying the are not available. They are available for Royal Stars but are different, no notch for the idle speed knob. Good luck with the search and if you find them and they have 2, buy them both and I'll take a set. I tried calling Preferred Power sports last month and their phone is dis-connected.
redfordhope Posted November 18, 2012 #5 Posted November 18, 2012 Adcustomchrome.com and on ebay he does great work! Mine are even custom engraved!

eusa1 Posted November 18, 2012 #8 Posted November 18, 2012 a club member here makes the same thing. spend your money with a supporting member! 'slowroll" is his name
Freebird Posted November 18, 2012 #9 Posted November 18, 2012 I thought he was just making the twinky covers? Anyway, I would love to have a set of the twinky covers but am keeping my eyes open for a set of the balled milled ones to match my other stuff.
eusa1 Posted November 18, 2012 #10 Posted November 18, 2012 he makes the carb covers and the breather/twinkie covers, but does not offer the ball mill style yet.
XV1100SE Posted November 18, 2012 #11 Posted November 18, 2012 I got the carb covers from him. Look great !
eusa1 Posted November 18, 2012 #12 Posted November 18, 2012 I got the carb covers from him. Look great ! Post his contact info if you have it?
Freebird Posted November 18, 2012 #13 Posted November 18, 2012 From what I've seen, Charles does a fantastic job on the covers that he makes. If he had them in ball milled, I would have already bought a set. I really encourage any of you looking for the twinky or carb covers to contact him. His username here is slowrollwv and here is a link to his profile so that you can send him a PM or an email. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/member.php?do=getinfo&u=3801

Just bought a set on ebay. Payed more than what the guy here in the forum sells the plain ones for, but I wanted the ball milled. There are a few more sets available. I got mine in the mail yesterday (Saturday) and they are on the bike now. Here's a link to some for sale on ebay now.http://www.ebay.com/itm/Yamaha-1300-Royal-Star-Venture-Billet-Carb-Covers-Chrome-ballmill-Tourer-Deluxe-/330830728665?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item4d070c4dd9
Freebird Posted November 18, 2012 #15 Posted November 18, 2012 Yes, I already have those though. What I'm looking for is the ball milled twinky covers to match them.
