Description

My initial Ebay listing......then I removed it because developed an oil leakFor sale is my 1988 Yamaha Venture Royale 1300 cc motorcycle. Runs strong have always maintained it 110000 miles has some blemishes from 25 years of service drips a couple of drops of oil each week but takes me to Jersey City and back each week. It's a great bike to haul lots of stuff for work school etc with the saddle bags and trunk. Has a large fairing which I liked because it shielded me in the winter from cold winds. Taking on a new project so thinking of selling her. These big engines are known to go easily 150 - 200000 miles. Thanks for looking.Update - Found an oil leak and removed the bike from Ebay and brought it to my mechanic. He says the valve cover gaskets need to be replaced. Two of the carburetors need to be taken apart and cleaned as well (somewhat clogged jets). Two of the rubber spark plug cover stems need to be replaced. I just don't want to invest more money into this bike right now. He said the valves are all adjusted properly and the compression is fine. If you are mechanically inclined this might be a great project for you and you'll come out with a great bike. He's putting this back together by Monday and I will drive it back down to my house.
