Thanks! Skydoc_17 messaged me just before I read this! You all are on top of things here Thanks for the tip on honing - I'll have to add that to my list of resurrection tips.

Even after sitting so long? I'm willing to give it a go though if you all think I should

Hey again folks! Got the bike in my shop and starting to go over it. One question I have is this, where can I get Carb Rebuild Kits, Master Cylinder Kits (carb and clutch), Clutch Slave Kit, and Caliper Rebuild Kits? Maybe that's more than one question... anyways I'm gonna poke around for a while to see if I can find some, but I am having a hard time.

Okay, that didn't work... Do you sell copies of the video Bob?

Okay, the video I found is most likely not the one you are referring to I'm gonna go see if I can find it on Ebay!

Thanks Bob! I think I found that video on YouTube That'd be awesome to come out for the rally!

It's only been a little over two years... would you happen to have another? My seek button is lost as well

Luckily I love fixing up old bikes!

Hey everybody! I just picked up a 1986 Yamaha Venture Royale that's been sitting since 2007. It looks a little rough around the edges but it looks like something I can get going again I am figuring that I'll need to check/replace any rubber lines/hoses, rebuild calipers, rebuild carburetors, clean, clean some more, clean even more, and do some more cleaning, replace the hilarious fuse block, get some tires, and just try and get it back into good shape. Advice and suggestions are welcome!
