Thanks Man. I'm pretty excited about it.

I really don't know if the seat has been reupholstered or not, it's well worn. Spare bikes huh. LoL

I'm expecting great things from this bike LoL.

75,000

So I bought my 90 venture a couple weeks ago and today was the first time I actually had to spend some real time on it. I LOVE IT ! I paid $1200 for it and kinda felt sick about buying another bike that I didn't need, but man what a good buy. I replaced the front tire and that was all, runs great, it's fun and when you get on the throttle it gives me a nice note and gets up and goes. I had read that some people found it a little top heavy at slow speeds, but I didn't feel that at all. A comfortable, stable, fun ride. Just had to share.

Thanks man. I sure hope so.

Thanks all for the great advice and feedback. I was scared to pull the trigger on another bike, I'm pretty good with a wrench and would expect to do some work on a 30 year old bike. I'm new to these touring type bikes, usually stay closer to home with just an occasional long trip. I think I posted hoping somebody would say " stay the hell away from it !" LOL I pulled the trigger today though, not on the 87 but I found a 90 that I liked much more and for only $1200, rode it home today. I feel sick to my stomach for being so stupid and buying a bike I really didn't need, but I guess that's one of the many perks of being a man, being stupid. LOL Again thanks for the input. Guess I'll be paying my dues now and become a full fledged member.

There's a 1987 Venture in very good shape 65000 miles I could get for $1700. What do you guys think?
