      Nicely taken care of.............BTW, that asking price just keeps raising the value of my bought new Venturer.

              That same bike has been for sale for years. He had been asking closer to $5k. I think he finally realized our blood was not that rich. He's advertised it before as having been worked on by Bob Jones, but I am unsure if that just means exactly that or if its been modified.

                  Lot of "extra" work done to this bike. No doubt he is losing money at that price. Definitely a clean example. The 11s are approaching 40 years old. It is my belief that the closer to stock the bikes remain, the more money they will bring. Ho Ho Ho

                      when I saw it was in KC area the thought of it maybe being associated with Bob Jones came to mind...I do believe the market has come up alot in the past 2 years and at the price he is asking for it now... its really a good buy!

                          I agree with you Ben. This is probably a $5K-$6K bike. Would be a great buy at the asking price. Not a big fan of that fairing. Hopefully he has the lowers. Kansas City is where my red Venturer came from.

                              Pacifico fairings are much bigger than the Vetter designs, and as such has even better wind and weather protection...given as a whole the touring pkg is complete and if i had this bike i wouldnt change a thing...

                                          There are 3 windshield heights still available for the Vetter fairings. Not sure if they are the same as Pacifico.

                                                  Pacifico lower portion is different as is location of mounting holes.
