Seen this bike on CL for the last six months. It's soooooooo tempting to buy, but I really do not want another project.

Looks to be an original 81 Venturer including seat. Exhaust has been changed to what looks to be a Mac system.81H Venturer1100 "The Bentley" (on steroids) 97 Yamaha YZ250(age reducer) 92 Honda ST1100 "Twisty"(touring rocket) Age is relative to the number of seconds counted 'airing' out an 85ft. table-top. -
Cafe Bike? UGH!
Ian,
If YOU don't buy it some kid will probably talk the owner down a little more, pull everything off of it and toss the "scraps" in the trash, hack the frame into pieces, spray bomb it flat black EVERYWHERE, cut the harness all up, and it will NEVER EVER run again.......
If it were closer... It would already be in my garage!

Haha, nice bait Kurt. I really can't justify getting another one, with acquiring another 850 and 1100 last Summer, and having no plans of restoring them yet. I really love these bikes, but I love my modern bikes much more.1979 XS1100F
