I had an 87 Venture Royale. It had 287,000 miles on it when I sold it for the same price I bought it for, $2800.00 I rode that bike like a sportbike. It is very capable in the canyons. I had to replace the right box rail because I scraped it fro heavy leaning in the corners until it reached the hollow center. The valve cover gaskets needed to be upgraded, the stock ones leaked early in the mileage. The mirrors were not very solidly mounted. Just two philips head screws holding each one on. The air pump for the shocks would often show errors but would work once fiddled with. The rear shaft drive needed to be replaced because the shaft gearing stripped. The stock clutch did not like being ran hard. The radiator needed to be flushed regularly. It tended to run hot. I had to replace all the rotors, the stock ones did not work well under heavy use. The rearmost mounts on the top bag failed and I had to use two tie downs to keep it from flopping around. The seat was very comfortable for a one day trip from Los Angeles to Vail, Colorado. Almost 900 miles. The ceramic elbow from the thermostat to the lower radiator was a weakness to the system. It leaked and needed to be replaced. Dunlop 491 Elite II's were the best performing tires for the way I rode. They would only last 3,000 miles when I rode with my sportbike friends at the time. A block fork brace is needed to keep the front end tamed and the anti dive did not do the job well enough so proggresive spring upgrades are a must. The Venture handled very well with those front end upgrades. Highway pegs and driver back rest make the bike even more comfortable. The side bad lids needed to be secured very well or else they tend to fly off.
@@motorki Nadal jestem w trakcie prac ale po pierwszych jazdach próbnych muszę powiedzieć że jest mega wygodna, fajnie się prowadzi i bardzo przyjemnie oddaje moc. Tempomat fajna sprawa. Na dzień dzisiejszy nic więcej nie mogę napisać, ale myślę że mogę polecić. Jedyna wada, jak można wszędzie przeczytać, to jej masa podczas manewrowania parkingowego.
Put a heel to toe shifter on it, and a back rest, and you'll be pampered. My first Venture looked like this one, but had the added goodies. FYI about once a year, take the shock air pump apart, put the silica gells on a baking pan with a little heat to turn them back to blue, then reassemble.
Good evening, excuse me, could you help me, I have a Yamaha venture royal 1300 1990 model and I do not know what type of engine oil it carries, and also what fork seals does I think are 40x52x8 ???? thank you very much for your help

Parádní mašinka, a ten zvuk.
Krásná motorka.
