I'm a couple of years late..sorry.  I too had an 86 Royale, mine was the two tone brown. Loved that bike but had to sell it after 3 years.  While in the Air Force I took it to Crete, Greece..lived right on the Med and after a year or so despite all I could do to prevent it, rust overtook her.  Toured Europe on it and she never failed.  This bike moves!!!!!!!!!!...but there is one thing perhaps you've already discovered and that is to not let it get off-center.  If it does, she's going down.  I dropped mine at least ten times..always sitting still.  My wife got real proficient at stepping off on it's way down.  Anyway, sold it in 89..drove a 1500 Goldwing and since 2001 a 1800 Goldwing.  In 20 years of Wing driving I've never dropped one...just the difference in center of gravity.  Still, I miss that Venture..had a lot of great times on it....enjoy yours!
