  1. I as well use the Harbor Freight jack. Weird thing happens, almost every time, for whatever reason, my thermostat housing leaks coolant. Never an issue any other time. I have considered making some wood blocks to contact the frame. Anyone else done this?
  2. Prayers brother... Prayers for a speedy and full recovery, sorry to hear of this mishap.
  3. Look good tho 👍
  4. Sounds like you got a great deal. Welcome to the Venture gang. Hang around, there are many on this site that can fix anything you come across with the bike. Enjoy.
  5. Thanks, do you recall what size fits well?
  6. Looking for a decent Dust cover for my 83 Venture. Sits in garage, gets very dusty and would like a basic, simple cover. Any recommendations that fit, are basic etc. Links would be awesome... ps: standard windshield, rear bags or trunk rarely on it.
  7. Sounds like a steal. I agree with Dawson, only a few fairly easy things it might be. When it gets hot, does the fan kick on? They tend to run close to the red mark naturally.
  8. Just an FYI and for others. I knew mine was about up , ironic I checked my spam folder, and there was my reminder Don sent today. I just paid it 👍 Just wanted to remind people that sometimes things go to spam.
  9. Interesting, when I click the link in my quote it goes to a page that discussed financial hardship as well. Looks like Amvets might be organizing something.
  10. Quote: Defense officials have denied veterans advocates permission to stage their annual Memorial Day motorcycle rally at the Pentagon parking lot, saying the crowd size poses a potential public health threat given the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
  11. Neither are difficult if you are a bit handy, I just did mine a month ago. Take several pictures as you go, that way you will know the exact washer placement etc when you reassemble. Rear is a bit heavy to lift and hold while assembling, I use a rolling floor jack to assist.
  12. VERY important to have 10-15% tongue weight.
  13. Good luck, hope they get it repaired quickly. Pretty big ordeal imo, should have just sent it strait to the Dealer, hindsight is always 20/20.
  14. Congrats on the new house. Hopefully it has a garage for your toys and hobbies 👍
  15. I got 11k miles out of both my Shinkos, just replaced them with new 230s.
  16. One post, Motorcycle Forum, personally I wouldn't click that link 😏
  17. I heard that China makes most the worlds plastics, and that will be the next high demand shortage, we are a world who likes our plastics.
  18. I agree, keep looking. There can be lots of other issues if the bike was not cared for.
  19. I like the high bars look. How does it ride. In America we call them ape bars or ape hangers.
  20. I watched a great documentary. As much as we think it's us Americans hoarding the ammo, it actually is a wild purchasing and bootleg to Mexico cartels. Warehouses filled with ammo. Crazy the war mounting south of the boarder.
  21. USPS took 4 weeks to deliver a package from CA to Indiana. They claim that they have Covid delays. I would speculate some shenanigans going on.
  22. Do you know if after we pay, then go back in to 'unsubscribe' will be get a notification that we need to renew again the following year? I only ask because I don't always have a credit card on file with paypal, and if it's an automatic I might screw it up, lol.
  23. A couple stickers will make them go faster 😉. Actually look great, we have consider buying some and throwing them in our camper. Some of the hills where we camp requires fat boy (me) to get off the bike and push up some longer hills. A little electric boost would be nice.
  24. Happy Easter brothers. Great Day !
  25. Type of bike? Have you taken the seat off it? Is the leather / vinyl simply stapled onto the seat pan? An electric knife does wonders. OR take seatcover off, head to hobby shop, sewing shop, or internet, buy new piece of foam, trim to your liking, yet still have old foam just in case you would rather go back stock.
