      The seat is ugly and the trunk looks too big. Does that make you feel better, Ben. Besides, it won't do anything your bike won't do.

        devil is in the details Marty...its a venturer and the ugly bits can be replaced....but it doesnt matter since my timing and money never match. But i did procure a venturer fairing...w/s bracket and pigtail...
        the next project...

          Hi Ben,
          You had me confused (not unusual) with that fairing until I realised it is UPSIDE Down with the mounting bracket and windshield loose inside it.
          A rattle can of the matching colour will soon fix that.

            Very good observations Phil...yes its upside down...actually it looks a whole lot worse than the pic makes it out to be....it needs to be gutted and stripped of all 3 layers of flaking paint...but the rest of my bike really needs a respray as well...would like to do it all at once... fairing,tank,side covers,and rear cowl...
