MUST BE SOLD ASAP......PRICE LOWERED.... Bike in Flushing Queens. I got a new bike coming in.
1983 Yamaha Venture Royal full touring classic, with tow package and matching pull behind trailer. Here is a true motorcycle classic.  Runs strong, starts right up, new battery last summer and has been tended all winter. This is a 30 year old bike. It's big, it heavy, it's comfortable as hell on the road. But it is 30 years old. I got it 2 years ago and planned on restoring, but time just got away from me. But I have been riding this bike, and it is fun to ride. Old time bike guys always stop to check it out, Its old, its a classic, and has lots of life left in her.
Issues: at end of last summer the speedometer cable broke while on a ride, caused the speedo needle to spin right off, as seen in pictures. Miles 51154 when this happened. I only put another 200 miles or less on it after that by end of last summer. The rear tires has a slow leak. The thermostat switch is not working: meaning that the fan doesn't turn on when temp goes up. However, what I did is hard wire a control switch to the fan. So when temp goes up, just switch the fan on, then temp goes down. Could use breaks, and a typical new season tune up.
Carbs where cleaned, jetted and synced last year. Leather is only 2 years old. Everything works, air suspension, radio, lights,etc.
If you put a few bucks onto it you'd have a classic machine. Or even if you parted, the plastics, bags, engine, air suspension system etc you can double or more you money or more easily. But I wouldn't do that. This bike is 30years old, but its strong, and can go for a long long time more.

Email me with contact info if interested. I will get back to you ASAP..........

Coma’s performance in today’s stage moved him to only 3:10 behind overall leader Joan Barreda.

Recall for 2011 Yamaha FJR1300

Mon, 11 Jul 2011

Yamaha is initiating a recall campaign the 2011 FJR1300, just a week after a separate recall for the 2006-2009 versions of the sport touring motorcycle. Like the earlier campaign, the recall for the 2011 Yamaha FJR1300 is for an electrical issue,  this time for the brake lights. According to documents released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, brake light on affected units may not illuminate when the front brake lever is applied because the activating mechanism in the brake switch can bind.
