One of the most pleasing motorcycles ever made, and you have the best color combo too. Have had several bikes over he years, including V-Max 1200's. Got to ride a Venture once and never forgot the experience.
I don't get on here often. The heat shields came off a Harley exhaust, can be found dirt cheap around here. The radio is a PRV175 mated with Clarion amp and Kicker 5 1/4" speakers. Uploading another video right now with bike in action.
Just got one last season an 89 rode it six hours home, wife and I loved it. Is there a safe way to lower it a little? Shorter shock or something I'm like 5'9" and I'm on my tippy toes.
I am interested in the coil over plug upgrade. Getting a modern cdi box from carmo electronics. Did you just put the stock coil connection on the coil overs?
This is awesome, I like your little storage compartment on the left dash, is this plastic custom built or a direct swap to put in new stereo and holder?
Tyson, the compartment and the radio mount were fabricated by me. I just used abs and epoxy, not too difficult. Removing the factory radio and cassette player leaves a lot of room.
Bob Dodson I used a couple pieces of pipe I picked up at oreilleys. I have a welder so was able to do that part myself. Originally I had clamps on both ends but ended up welding the transition to the mufflers since they're so easy to come by. Going to pick up another pair for $20 this weekend.

I HAD A BIKE EXACTLY LIKE THAT I BOUGHT BRAND NEW. IT NEVER GIVE ME A LICK OF TROUBLE. THOSE OLD STYLE VENTURES WERE THE BEST.
I have the
1986xvx13ds and it's truly a phenomenal bike!

@@steveroseman9566 great job, hope I can make or have something made for mine to modernize it abit
Personally I think they sound a lot better on your bike then they would have ever sounded on a Harley LOL haha
Where did you get your heat shields?
How did you do the factory radio mod? I'd love to do the same to mine.
what did you use for the transition pipe

What's the actual radio ( name and model)
