Yamaha Other description

1983 Yamaha Venture 1200cc V-4 with 50,zero miles. Excellent condition. Has a trailer hitch assembly on the rear for towing. Engine runs like new. This model did have 1 drawback and that was a factory 2nd gear issue and this bike has it. It is my daily driver, I just skip 2nd. I was planning to overhaul it this winter but plans have changed. The engines on these bikes are bulletproof and they are worth keeping on the road. The price reflects you getting 2nd gear fixed. If you have any questions let me know
