That may fit behind the battery, to hold the cable that was supplied with the bike to use as a helmet lock. I forget where the cable was locked to when securing the helmet(s), I am not sure I ever used mine.

No

Guess that is not the answer then.

If you mean on the unkown thingy, nope. It's solid, no holes, ports, nada, butkus, diddly, zero, nothing. It just is. LOL

Does the 98 RSTD have linked brakes?

The one seal would be grooved, the other I think is flat. Grooved to the outside.

Yes I know there are 2 seals on each piston. I ordered 1 of each part number, they just came and matching them to each other they look identical. So I don't know why the numbers are different but at least I have all the seals I need . Just another mystery of partzilla

Hey Earl. I'd be interested in these one of your clutch kits if you're still making them. Let me know.

I'm bring an former member CRAIG aka LEO... I believe his last Asheville VR.ORG trip was 2008. He rides a Road Glide. he will fit right in with the Blevins...lol Picture from 2008 Asheville. He is the tall guy in the white shirt

Get Ready to PARTY! Dan just confirmed he is coming to Asheville. He’ll be staying with Joe & I in cabin #8

Now that our local weather has settled down a little, I got the chance to ride my RSV to work. What a great feeling! It has been a few days since my last ride. Ride safe all.

On MC tires I always got one front to two rears. Weight and the acceleration wears the rears faster. Now that I’m darkside I get two or three fronts to one rear.

That looks to be the ATS I think it's called. Was used to 'balance' the carbs somehow, but I don't think it done what is was really meant to or thought to do. Most guys took it out and either linked the carbs together with tubing or plugged the ports altogether. There should be a port for each carb on it somewhere. JMT.

so here is the picture, I have no idea, except maybe it is a cover for the lock mechanism in the saddle bags on a tour deluxe. I do not recall ever seeing anything like that on my 98 Tour Classic with soft bags. Do not recall if there were covers over the saddle bag locks on my Venture.

I would love to get over 10K miles on any tire I have bought. I used to run the D404's, I like the tire but seemed to wear out around 5-6K miles. Got me some E4's (front and back) a few years ago. That rear tire made it about 7K or a little over. Went back to a D404 and on a trip it got a leak so had to have it replaced in Arkansas. The dealership only had a Michelin Commander 2. Worked out as it forced me to try it but I had been too cheap to go for that during normal tire change intervals. Now I have 6-7K miles on that rear tire and still has decent tread but I can hear it when it is on the left side of the tire when in light turns or leaning a little. I don't know if I'll get a full season of riding next year out of that tire. I am starting to think it is just the way it is running the weight we are putting on it and the speeds. A lot of straight roads around here and fairly high speed limits (55-75 MPH). My wife and I are not lean and mean and also a lot of chip and seal roads around here as well. Running around 39-41 PSI on the rear for the last 4 years. Used to run 36-38 psi and definitely didn't have good tread wear at that rate. Now that I look at my records, looks like the E4 I have on the front is now around 17K miles, but does need to be replaced. So thinking I must be overloading the rear. Not sure why else I would get that many miles from the front and only 7K from the rear.

Best 12 bucks you'll ever spend

There you go! Good answer!

Yep. You can become a paid member with all the benefits. Home page, top, store, subscriptions and pay the fee. Only $12 US per year.

Top of the home page, the very top, go to store and then subscriptions. There you may pay your entrance fee.

How do I become a supporting member?

You got a 60 day free trial. You will be a trial member unless you become a supporting member.

To the administrator, how long do I remain a "trial" member? I tried sending email, can't also tried to ad photo to a question I have, can't. thanks. Precious.

May be because you are listed as a trial member, but normally you can just up load from your computer. PM sent.

There were Inner & Outer seals on mine, but its been a few years since I've been in there. I bought a complete rebuild kit from All Balls when I did mine https://www.allballsracing.com/18-3194.html

Thanks for reply!
