Denise Posted November 3, 2018 #1  Posted November 3, 2018 So I purchased a set of passing lamps from ebay after I thought I had purchased the mount only to get an email saying the mount was discontinued 😕 so thought I would post on here for some help.

They may have one in good shape but not listed on Ebay.
vzuden Posted November 5, 2018 #3 Â Posted November 5, 2018 Make sure you get one for the Venture and not Tour Deluxe (RSTD). They look similar but do not interchange

I just ordered one10 minutes ago. Scroll down the page for the RSV ones. https://www.shopworldofpowersports.com/yamaha-star-passing-lamp-mounts-detail.htm?productid=21119959
Denise Posted November 6, 2018 Author #5 Â Posted November 6, 2018 I called them and they didn't have any in stock the other day, a few sites let me go through the B.S. of ordering to send me an email the next day saying unavailable. That's how I ended up with passing lights and no mount. Let me know if you happen to get the mount. Thanks
BratmanXj Posted November 6, 2018 #6  Posted November 6, 2018 Make sure you get one for the Venture and not Tour Deluxe (RSTD). They look similar but do not interchange I have the TD mount on my Venture, the both mount the same.  The TD does not have the mounts for the "wing" air deflectors that I never had when I bought my bike used and you'll probably want to cut off the upper bracket that would mount to the TD headlight bucket.

That's how I ended up with passing lights and no mount. Let me know if you happen to get the mount. Thanks So far so good. I got an automated invoice from them this morning and haven't heard anything else so keeping my fingers crossed. Just out of curiosity, which passing lights did you get? I haven't ordered those yet and any lead/link would be appreciated. Did you also order the hollow bolts to connect the passing lights to the turn signals?
Denise Posted November 7, 2018 Author #8 Â Posted November 7, 2018 I purchased mine from ebay for $100 . Let me know if they send you an email about availability.
grubsie Posted November 7, 2018 #9  Posted November 7, 2018 I purchased mine from ebay for $100 . Let me know if they send you an email about availability. Just got refunded for the bar so they didn't have one. Oh well, back to the drawing board.
RSTDdog Posted November 10, 2018 #10 Â Posted November 10, 2018 You may want to try searching craigslist nationwide. One way to to do this is in Google is Search term,item, product followed by site:craigslist.org Keep in mind that the google search algorithm puts advertisers first followed by most frequently clicked (sort of) so you may have to look several pages in. A number of the accessories for the RSTD were discontinued even before the production stopped in 2009. Found a lot of things this way. Everyone I contacted was willing to ship. Search Tempest is another way to search craigslist nationwide. There may be others. Also vary your search terms, be general, search Royal Star Parts, etc. Also search using google, you may find one for sale on another motorcycle forum. Delphi Forums for Yamaha often have parts for sale (or at least they did). Again you may need to go several pages in.

grubsie Posted November 15, 2018 #12 Â Posted November 15, 2018 I got lucky and scored the whole passing light setup, passings lights, turnsignals and bar from John Furbur from RMSportMax off facebook. Got it at a great price too! I will hopefully get it this week. Not that it matters all that much if I do get it soon since mother nature is bearing down with the cold, so very little, if any riding left this year anyway.
