    Looks like the front brakes have been removed... Maybe they are sitting somewhere with the windshield?

      Heh heh, didn't notice the brakes. At least that's a Vetter type windshield and you can still get one.

      There's no muffler on the 4 into 1 either.

        exhaust?

        Doesn't appear to exit on left or right.

        Lot's of those windshields around, though. Could be a good buy. Could be another project. Who's ready for that?

          You can see it in one of those pics exiting under the right footpeg.

          I certainly don't need anything else. I just thought someone might be interested in a Venturer. They are getting pretty rare.

              headers are Jardine...but $1000 is a high price for such condition...I would think $800 tops...owner says it runs fine but I dont believe him...bike does not look like its roadworthy ...brakes ,exhaust,windscreen are not major issues so this could be an excellent project to save a Venturer, Not for me though...bad timing on the money and distance to travel to OK

                Made him an offer even though I don't need another damn bike.

                I probably insulted him anyway.

                    Looking at over $100 to bring tag up to date. Still has the green and white, instead of the new red and white.

                            LMFAO......no, I got the ones he didn't want. They're pretty good though. I just need to figure out how the hell they mount.

                              Airbox bottom removed, they're usually removed if the carbs are giving trouble, pretty good sign it doesn't run as good as he would have you believe
