    80G in OKC $650

    Here I am searching the net again and came across this one that would be a great fixer upper.
    http://oklahoma.findanycycle.com/mot...-for-sale.html

    I hope that someone picks one of these 'rescue' bikes that I find and brings them back to life.
    If I ever find one close enough to my home, I'll do it.

    That's at least an '81 h tank so the whole thing might be a 81. Good price. Greg, go buy this one.

      I don't think it's an 80 G Wrong color... Right color for an 81 H though...Could be the build date on the bike is an 80 Can't really tell from the picture but that tank looks huge

          81H all......................no more guessin' needed.......the Vetter tail trunk is added, didn't come as part of the Venturer 1100.

            Yeah, I was going to say the exhaust looked like a stock special exhaust and it looks like I can see the slots in the front disks which also pointed to 81h. But it's also not a runner, so while it's maybe not a parts bike but rather a project, it's still going to take a good bit of work to get it back into shape and on the road, and I'll bet it's going to need new tires as well.

              The 81 Special and Venturer shared the same exhaust Cy.

                I know they shared the same exhaust. That with the standard forks and slotted front rotors and standard bars and the tank were some of the cues (prior to the VIN) that pointed me to it being an 81 rather than an 80 as stated in the ad.

                  Wish I lived close enough to pick it up. Those sound fantastic. Best of all the bikes combined into one.
