Did you just replace the diaphragms or the slider too? Wondering because I replaced my '83 diaphragms a few years ago but used the springs that were in there. I've never really got stellar mpg, maybe on some trips but for the most part I'm not getting all that good of mileage. Wonder if this would help.

Yamaha only sell the slide and diafram as a unit so yes i replaced both
is necessary to have the heavier springs from the 1300 with the replacement slides from Yamaha
could be worth borrowing a set from a members 1300 parts bike and seeing how you go with them but may be to heavy with the original sliders think its only the early 1200s with the lighter sliders

a set of 1300 springs fixt it yeha shes flying agane everdentaley the 1200 slides were lighter and the springs shorter go figer took sum working out that one
:cool10: -
if you by diaphragms from Yamaha for an 83 1200 venture you will get part no 41r-14940-09 when you fit them you will have to fit new longer thicker springs as well
CARB DIAPHRAGM SPRING. PART NUMBER- 1FK-14933-00
same spring as the 1300
if you dont update the spring with the new diafram it will yous lots of fuel and there will be a bad dead spot between 4000 and 5000 rpm -
yes fited new from Yamaha diaphragms and slieds fuel economy gone to **** and it wont pull anywhere near as hard and if i execrate real hard it backfires on desell

was reading a service bulletin which sead that the 83 venture had lighter slides and weaker springs and if replacing a slide then a new heavier spring was also necessary well i replaced all my slides and diagrams but the recommend spring is obsolete bike runs ok but is only getting 28 miles to the Galen could this be due to the week springs ?
-
so hows it coming along can we have an update pleass?
-
have bean riding the v max for the last 3 weeks so glad to be back on the venture.
had to replace all 4 diaphragms went the stock rout was $375 but its dun now and the old girls running better than ever.
the old ones had bean bodged up with sum kind of very thin silicon that eventually failed
:cool10: -
Can we see a pic of it over a first gen pleaseI bought one of these for my 1100 and when I got the 1300, it fit just as good. Got it on sale for $14http://www.menards.com/main/outdoor/covers/motorcycle-cover-model-a/p-1451133-c-10143.htm
-
Yes there made for a price the xxls that i tryed were just to small to fit the first gen properly at 65 inches long they had to be stretched and only came down 1/2 way to the axles.
The xxxls are plenty big as can be seen as for shipping its free as far as im aware.
Ventures were not sold hear so finding the big covers to suet has bean difficult.
ps; to by one from the bike shop hear is like $75 with no warranty and there not a good venture fit whitch is why i posted this.
-
I have two full covers but don't use them cause I like my Nelson Riggs half cover so much. It fits both 1st and 2nd gens quite well. Here is a picture of both covered by a Nelson Riggs half cover.
cool diferent stroks
just need to keep the sun off down hear it kills seats and pant work farly quick
-
yes i tried several times to get ones big enough but they were only xxl so were to small the i found the xxxls and hay for 20 bucks with free delivery thourt they were great and cuver the old girl nicely

every thing you wont to know

I never understood why riders would rather lean a bike into a turn than just turn the steering bars. Been riding for 40 years and if I want to make a turn, I just turn the steering bars. Never have to worry about lean angle limits. Having a passneger and a trailer...seems like a lot at stake for on the edge riding if you ask me.
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO TERN A MOTORCYCLE WITHOUT LEANING IT JUST THE WAY 2 WHEELS WORKS
TO TERN LEFT ON A MOTORCYCLE YOU NUGH THE BARS TO THE RIGHT AS YOU LEAN INTO THE TERN ,
IF YOU TRY TO KEEP THE BIKE UPRIGHT AND TERN THE BARS LEFT IT WILL FALL TO THE RIGHT TRY IT AND SEE
IT HAS TO LEAN IN THE DIRECTION OF THE CURVE

reading the service bulletins it seas the 83 had lighter slides and when replacing one you should replace the spring as well.
but im hoping that replacing all 4 i may be abell to get away with using the original springs will let you all know how it goes
failing that has anybody got the part number for the later spring 84 on
-
finally pulled the trigger on a new set of diaphragms and sliders from Yamaha for my 83
now do i need to replace the springs ? our will the originals work ok with the new uprated diafram from Yamaha ? does any one know
-
well they are right about it retaining Harley DNA 55-kW electric motor that produces 75 hp
they could have made it fast but hay that wouldn't be in the Harley tradition lol
will be plenty of this i fell to lol another Harley tradition :rotf: -
Does anyone know what the bank angle of a 2013 Venture S is with 2 up. I had a near death experience wailing into a corner on CR 26 in the Ohio Wayne Forest towing a trailer. Grounded out, ran out of road, struck a line up the shoulder, trailer went sideways into the ditch, bike came back onto the asphalt totally sideways, grabbed a hand full of throttle, put my foot down and slid sideways, fishtailed a couple of times and rode on. That's when I said to myself, "I am selling this f&%$#%*@g piece of crap and getting another Gold Wing"
It over steers, carries too little gas, is very top heavy, and the cruise control is just an aggravating bad joke. Hope Yamaha does and better job with the next edition---if they plan on making one. This was just a bad experiment for me. The only positive thing I can say is this bike is only comfortable when floating down the Interstate, and there, it is quite comfortable.
The Wings have about a 45 degree bank angle and the Harley is around 25 degrees. I suspect the Venture is somewhere around the same as a Harley.
you did all that and stayed upright well that's a testimony on how well the venture handles and just how recklessly you endanger your pillion.
just saying
do that on a wing and recover i dear you
:cool10:
if you dont update the spring with the new diafram it will yous lots of fuel and there will be a bad dead spot between 4000 and 5000 rpm
will be plenty of this i fell to lol another Harley tradition
