friesman Posted March 20, 2012 Share #2 Posted March 20, 2012 I am not sure as the pic isnt closeup, but I think it has the bigger trunk, and that would make it an 85. It sure aint gonna get 60mpg, so I would doubt everything else about this bike too. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keemez Posted March 20, 2012 Share #3 Posted March 20, 2012 Haha. Apparently this guy doesn't know the difference between Dodge and Yamaha. And I'm with Brian- 60+mpg my posterior. Sorta like this guy with his "Kevorkian" pegs and accessories: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVWtiLxe614]1987 Yamaha Venture Royale For Sale on Ebay - YouTube[/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthandy Posted March 20, 2012 Share #4 Posted March 20, 2012 Probably couldn't pronounce "Venture" ... or as stated, he may have thought it was a Chrysler product! 60 mpg? Not even on a Canadian gallon. This guy sounds like a real "storyteller" ... and not a very bright one! Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt the damn thing gets 60 mpg but the one Alan was rding got 42 + pulling that trailer. Everytime we stop going to Vogel I'd fill up and take 4 gallon and he'd take 2.8.
