1986 1200 VENTURE OR 1984 GOLD WING ASPENCADE

#1 Unread post by ERIC60 »

Hi all, I'd like to buy another bike without spending too much money!
I hesitate between a 86 Yamaha Venture and a 84 Honda Goldwing Aspencade;
both have roughly the same weight and the same power;
what are your hints?
thanks for feedback;
cheers,
Eric

Welcome to the community Eric!

Interesting two "retro" bike choices. I am familiar with both. Will either of these be replacing your 1991 Harley-Davidson Softail or adding it to the stable?

I am thinking about a 86 Yamaha Venture too, and I love it so much! The only issue for me is that I have no money for it at all...

I've been looking at a 1986 Yamaha Venture and am really considering it. The only problem is that I can't afford it right now.
