1986 Yamaha XVZ1300D Venture Royale review from United States of America
"Superb!"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
During the time I owned my 1986 Venture, all I did was regular maintenance.
General comments?
Very dependable, very quick, very comfortable! I would love to find another one with fairly low miles.
