  1. I need some of your expertise. I have looked through the site and on the net and I can't seem to find anything definitive on where I can get a set of driver floorboards that will fit the Mk11 (86-93). There must be a a model or a means to fit boards to the Venture. I do have a set that fit the Mk1 but these project into the space required for the chin. Finding these on EBay is near a miracle. Does anyone have any experience on a "universal" set or a savy means of adapting a board set meant for a goldwing etc. to fit? Thanks guys!
  2. Sometimes a ride is just a ride, and occasionally it means more than that. Enjoy: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/08/06/1117354/--I-am-in-Awe-of-my-Wife-Jodie-picked-the-Title
  3. Seen this in a parking lot the other day. That is a Honda Rebel with a bicycle rack installed and a bike on it. I didn't get to talk to the rider but it sure looks to me like he/she really means to save the gas. http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/AKRefugee/Yamaha%20Forum/de4e6015.jpg
  4. Pirelli - MT66 Route Cruiser rear tire.... I hope I didn't make a mistake.... a friend on another board highly recommended the tire...if I can get 2/3 of the wear I did out of the Elite 3 I will be happy it was $52.00 cheaper so this means I can buy the tire, have it mounted for what I would have given 4 the E3...
  5. THINGS I LEARNED LIVING IN THE SOUTH A possum is a flat animal that sleeps in the middle of the road. There are 5,000 types of snakes and 4,998 of them live in the South. There are 10,000 types of spiders. All 10,000 of them live in the South, plus a couple no one's seen before. If it grows, it'll stick ya. If it crawls, it'll bite cha. Onced and Twiced are words. It is not a shopping cart, it is a buggy! Jawl-P? means, Did you all go to the bathroom? People actually grow,eat and like okra. Fixinto is one word. It means I'm going to do that. There is no such thing as lunch. There is only dinner and then there's supper. Iced tea is appropriate for all meals and you start drinking it when you're two. We do like a little tea with our sugar. It is referred to as the Wine of the South. Backwards and forwards means I know everything about you. The word jeet is actually a question meaning, 'Did you eat?' You don't have to wear a watch, because it doesn't matter what time it is, you work until you're done or it's too dark to see. You don't PUSH buttons, you MASH em. Ya'll is singular. All ya'll is plural. All the festivals across the state are named after a fruit, vegetable, grain, insect, or animal. You carry jumper cables in your car - for your OWN car. You only own five spices: salt, pepper, mustard, Tabasco and ketchup. The local papers cover national and international news on one page, but require 6 pages for local high school sports, the motor sports, and gossip. Everyone you meet is a Honey, Sugar, Miss(first name) or Mr.(first name) You think that the first day of deer season is a national holiday. You know what a hissy fit is.. Fried catfish is the other white meat. We don't need no dang Driver's Ed. If our mama says we can drive, we can drive!!! You understand these jokes and forward them to your Southern friends and those who just wish they were from the SOUTH.
  6. The owner of Red Jacket Firearms (in Baton Rouge) custom built a AR-15 for the Combat Vets of Louisiana. Our intent is to Raffle this beauty off at the Great Southern Rally later on this month. All tickets sold out weeks ago. Our guys showed up today to pay/take delivery of the weapon....Will refused payment and donated the weapon to us. This means the La CVMA can donate $1500.00 more to our Veterans Home instead of paying for this tricked out AR-15. Boomer....who sez Red Jacket Firearms iz de cat's meow for their generosity.
  7. http://www.automobilemag.com/features/news/1203_ducati_future_in_four_rings/index.html Ducati makes some excellent bikes. The Monster 696 is one for sure. Having 8-9 percent of the market means they are not a 'bit' player. It will be interesting to see how this turns out.
  8. This just looks like the potential of way to much fun. And weighing just 231 lbs means that there is no license required to use it. http://thekneeslider.com/archives/2011/06/09/hoverbike-the-twin-rotor-bmw-boxer-powered-flying-motorcycle/

  10. OK...so what does the phillips screw (with the nut) do on the brakke lever? Also...how do you adjust it...If I put some clearance (space) between the screw head and the nut...and then turn the screw to tighten...THEY BOTH MOVE. Which means the screw and nut tighten to the same place every time. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Wally

This year will be especially nice having Aussie Annie and Quick Step to join us. So....may the pouring of the WINE soon begin...see you soon my fellow wineos'.

  14. I called the Dodge dealer to ask about an error code I'm getting on my truck: U1421 implausible Ignition Key Off Time Received. For a mere $87 they will tell me what the code means .....:think: Uhhhh.... I already know what it means, I want to know what causes it and why. Guess i ask too many stupid questions:whistling:
  15. I wanted to see if we can help Lowell out on his cycle repairs. As most know Lowell has done a lot for our family and being at most every event we had and being our ambassador for Venturerider.org Please lets show Lowell how much he means to us!!. I would like to help out by giving some money to help him get his cycle fixed. as of right now 300.00 is needed for the cycle repairs but extra is also needed for gas as well to get his bike there in TN for the repairs. Most of us know Lowell is having some health issues which we all know takes $$ to do so I was hoping by doing this for Lowell it would help him out toward his other $$ needs.. I know Lowell will be talking to me later on :whistling:but heck we Love the Guy Freebird, Can we do this for Lowell as he really means a lot me and others here? Buddy
  16. I am really starting to get frustrated...perhaps I should have just bought a new bike instead of thinking it would be fun to wrench on this one! About ready to call off the motorcycle trip with the wife this weekend and take the car instead. Anyways, enough of my whining. My speedo was working fine but during the past week when I had both wheels off to replace the driveshaft oil seal and lube all the splines I decided to grease the speedo cable. No problem right? So I thought. I was just taking a test drive and, wham...speedo started flickering and then dropped to zero. Odometer no longer incrementing and blinkers not cancelling. I pulled over and pulled the cable out, looked just like it did the first time I pulled it out...long coil cable thing with a square head on the end. I'm assuming that means it isn't broken. Did I perhaps not get it seated all the way before, did I break something else? The speedo gear is in the slot of the front fork so I assume that is OK. I am wondering if I didn't route the cable properly around the forks as there is some rub on the rubber of the outer cable. I can post any pictures needed...just looking for some help...AGAIN!
  17. ok im sure there not worth much? while still cleaning my aunts apartment. i found 2 sets of the washington state quarters from 1999-2003 real nice shape and the books are full with the P and D? quarters not sure what that means? like Illinois P and Illinois D? ect ect any one have an idea if there worth any thing? thanks oldgoat
  18. No, not me. Shirley semi retired from Lucent 8 years ago and has been working retail part time since. Her social security checks started in May and she quit that job today. We finally got our weekends back.:dancefool: This means your gona have to put up with me more on the meet & eats. Youve been warned.
  19. Looking for advice. Installed a yamaha wing on the trunk lid with brake light in it. As such, the wiring is not the best. I have connected wiring per the directions. Did the check and lights are on as running light, but will not come on "bright" when brake applied. Any comments? On a side note, the means to connect the wires to the bike, seem a rather cheap and not reliable means, but can work. Any feedback or comments appreciated.
  20. Went for an awesome ride today (thanks for leading Randya), but in the middle of the ride the spedo started screaming. Then it decided not to come home with me. I suppose that means we've moved past the "lube it and it'll be ok" point. How much is this going to cost me?
  21. I plan on mounting a set of these LED turn signals onto my bike. Either on the sides of my saddle bag or my trunk, I have not decided which yet. They are used on the side of the cabs of Volvo transport trucks as as additional signals. Which means you can go into any Volvo truck dealer to get them. The grey plastic part can be painted to match the color of the bike.
  22. Well, it's hump day and for those of you that have to 'work' that has a significant meaning, to us that just can't sleep, all it means is another day to ride or just do nothing and wait for Uncle Sam to send another check
  23. I posted in Watering Hole, but thought it should be here?? Does anyone have any passenger floorboards for the right side available?:icon_smile_question I need them to so I can attach them to either floorboard on the right side when I am riding--this will give me the extra kick-out I need for my stiff leg. But it also means they can be removed if Big AL is riding my bike, or so they can't be stolen!!!!! Happy to pay reasonable price and shipping
  24. wondering what the E1 code means?
  25. Folks, if you have purchased a subscription and get a reminder that it is expiring, please let me know. By all means, do NOT pay again. You should only get a reminder a year after you paid. You should NEVER get billed again automatically, I have the yearly subscriptions set to NOT be recurring so it will be your choice if you wish to subscribe again a year from now. A couple of folks have told me that they got emails that their subscriptions are expiring. I apologize if it happens to you but please let me know if it does and by all means, do NOT pay again.
