Nice looking bike. Congrats on your purchase. I have owned a 1986 Goldwing Interstate and a 1989 Yamaha Venture. The 1500 I now own is a better bike than either of these. Not that they were bad machines the 1500 is just better. Enjoy your new to you 1500!!

Rochester MN, from google maps you live around 6 hours from us.

This hitch removed from my 1500, paint a little faded and some rust spots on chrome. Have no desire to pull a trailer so I removed hitch after I bought the bike. Light broke on mud flap, do not know if other lights work. Harness removed from bike included. $50 cash takes it.

I wondered about the windshield myself when I bough the bike, pretty sure it's a Tulsa Tall. It's fine, never rode behind a stock one on a 1500 so I can't compare. Been long enough since I've been on a 1200 I really don't remember. One bad thing this windshield is thicker than the stock one so...

Thank you for the compliments. The seat is a direct fit. The 2000 seat does not have a cover in the back, never used the one on the original seat so it doesn't matter. You can get the 2000 seat in any color as long as it is black. Being the original seat is brown along with the rest of the...

Hello- In October of 2016 I put out a post stating I was looking for a replacement for my aging and cosmetically flawed 1989 Yamaha Venture. I stated I was looking for a 1200 as I had one years ago and was happy with the bike. I also stated I really was not interested in a 1500. Well I went...
