Good dealer / service department North of Atlanta?
Dragonslayer replied to atlm's topic in Watering Hole
Millinuem Cycles on Hwy 78 near Stone mountain Harley is a Yamaha dealer. Although I haven't had any work done there a friend of mine just had his carbs fixed where Doraville cycles had screwed them up. As far as I know they do good work. My friend didn't have any complaints. I wish I could help you more. IO ride a first gen and do all of my own work. Blackjack could probably tell you more. He's friends with the owner. I specifically would not recommend lawrenceville Honda/Yamaha, Rockdale Cycles, Or Doraville Cycles. -
It wasn't me either, when I did that I was on private property not an interstate. My bikes blue anyhow, why am I making a statement I wasn't even in Florida. Nevermind I have an air tight alibi.

And that's our story and we're sticking to it.

DragonSlayer jumped up and said...................Hey Where are ya'll going....This story isn't over yet.... I didn't come all the way up here to not eat Bar-B-Que .................... Or to not go to the Charity Country Music concert. .................. Ya'll can go home if you want But I'm going inside to get's me some Bar-B-que.................Elvis said "I will too..................Hey wait up"...

And then as if by magic, we were there at the Hog Heaven Bar-b-que amphitheater venue. And all of the VR members were there. In the parking lot there were all of the tour buses belonging to our star cast of characters. On the other side of the parking lot there was about a million Yamaha 1st gens, 2nd gens, VR, V-star's, RSV, trikes, hacks and bikes of all descriptions. And riding past were the Harley riding Del Fuego's being chased by cops. and, and, .....................................................

Dragon Slayer feeling much better and thinking more clearly now having gotten used to the much better fitting helmet. Began anaylising the current circumstances and what could be done to expedite the logistics of getting the pack to our final destination in time to make the Country Music concert and Hog heaven Bar-B-Que M&E which was now the plan as much as any of us understood it. He quickly whipped his lap top out of his trunk and booted it up. Their on his desk top was the VR Member Help and Assistance file which he quickly landed the cursor on and double Clicked. Community...Click,Click...T for Tennessee Click, Click.... scroll down citys to Nashville there it was R.gaylord, Nashville, Tennesse willing to give Local Information and his cell phone number. Dragonslayer then whipped out his cell phone and entered the correct digits. Getting Rgaylord on the phone Rgaylord says that he has been trying to get in touch with the Dragonslayer to get some of those F.O.E. Bike raffle tickets and to see if he was gonna be at the M &E so that they could hook up. What a syncronistic event since the Dragonslayer does not believe in coincedence But instead knows, as all DragonSlayer's do, that all things are interconnected and all events happen for a reason. And that we are only able to see the reasons when looking at a series of events in retrospect. Therefore the DragonSlayer immediatley knew why all of the events of this ride happened bringing all of them to this exact place and time, the way they did. Since Rgaylord said that he would lead us on in to the Hog heaven restuarant and Amphiteather were the M&E and Charity country music concert was planned to happen. We then realized that the pack was actually in Rgaylord's driveway when he came out to get on his bike ready to lead us to the venue since he was a local and knew all of the fastest and safest shortcuts. Getting Willie Nelson and Elvis on the phone, Dolly and her Dollies, George Jones and the Johnny Cash singing Big Tom all decided to make the concert a charity event designed for the purpose of promoting the DragonSlayer's Fraternal Order of Eagles Bike Raffle Tickets, which were being sold for a good cause the Cancer relief fund to assist individuals and families going the catostrophic illness of Cancer.(INFORMATION ABOUT WHICH CAN BE VIEWED ON THE "PAYING IT FORWARD" FORUM ON THE VENTURERIDER.ORG WEB SITE) Dragonslayer now knew that he was meant to join this internet based motorcycle interest web site and meet all of the good people that he had met on all of the M&E's he had attended. and that it was his destiny to go on this ride and being fortunate to be able to experience all of the events that he had experienced on this ride. And that it was no coincedence that we met all these famous country music stars who had voluntered to perform in this concert to promote the F.O.E. Bike raffle ticket sales and why he at this exacrt moment in time had in excess of 500 raffle tickets in his pocket. And as the single tear ran down his cheek he now knew and it all made sense. He knew that all tickets would be sold and he would truely be able to leave a positive footprint on the universe for eternity of time through all of the people and families that would be helped by the sale of these Raffle tickets. And he also knew that all was the way it should be.

windows movie maker will do that. You upload your video and pictures to a movie video track then ad whatever music or vocal you want onto the audio track as well as edit both tracks any way you want to.

Nashville 28 13/64's miles. We now knew we would make it safely because Dragonslayer had a brand new much better fitting helmet

as often happens when a dream is about get to the really, really good part, Dragonslayer startled from his sleep, falling out of the chair hitting his head on the table beside him. As he picked himself up off the ground he said "what's next". He then reached up to feel the top of his head where his Tiara had been and felt a very large..........BUMP

Does that sound better?

Dang that is what I was gonna say except the wife (I mean Warden) part. Are you reading my mind Yammer. Hey by the way Yammer I found your gloves. Look on the adlib continuation story thread to see where.

I think his brain was freezing while her brain was farting. or vica versa.

Buffalo Valley, which is located in Dekalb County, according to the road sign that says "ENTERING DEKALB COUNTY" Then all of a sudden Dragonslayer looked up and saw the sign then FREAKED. :scared:Having not been paying close attention since 86er and Bubba showed up Dragonslayer did not know how we got from Deal's Gap all the way back to Dekalb County, Georgia ................which was where he lived. :confused24:Not realizing that we were in Dekalb County, Tennessee. DragonSlayer was unconsoulable, Dazzed, Frazzled, lost and confused. :bang head:He did not understand why Elvis was here or, how or why Beer 30 was now wearing Muffinman's Pink chaps that he had been wearing earlier. In his mind he could not imagine any scenario that would result in a clothing exchange with Beer 30, being terrified he feared the worst. :Bunny2:Which caused him to go deeper into this disshoveled version of himself. He then reached into his saddle bag and pulled out the metal sauce pan and metal spoon and began banging them together wildly, while, screaming at the top of his lungs, repeating over and over.......... "there's no place like home, there's no place like like home", ........................as if chasing off marauding pic-a-nik basket stealing bears, in the dark. All of a sudden there stood in the place where Elvis had been standing was Dorothy and Toto her obnoxiouse yapping lap dog, (reading a road map which showed a very long Yellow brick road leading from the Land of OZ to where we were at.) Dragonslayer could only assume that Dorothy and Toto were lost having missed their home bound destination, Kansas, by several hundred miles. Evidently, Elvis had returned to Jacksonville, Key West, Memphis, Nashville, Tupelo, Mississippi or wherever the H*ll else it was that he had come from. Upon having gotten a good look at the map Dragonslayer then realized that we were actually in Dekalb County, Tennessee, not Dekalb County , Georgia. :doh:Realizing his mistake (which was only the second one he had ever made, the first being deciding to go on this ride) then...Seeing Dorothy holding Toto, and realizing Elvis had truely passed on, Things suddenly now made much more sense. :thumbsup2:Which seldom happened on any VR M&E's unless Ice Cream was involved. Being much calmer now Dragonslayer walked over to the side of the road, sat down and quickly went to sleep. It was not long before he was in a dreamlike state and was dreaming of long gone times and rides of the past. (see pics below)

What is the farthest distance you have ridden in one day?
Dragonslayer replied to Yama Mama's topic in Watering Hole
The last leg of my trip to Sturgis 2008 was when I did the Ironbutt Saddle Sore 1000 ride from Amarillo, Texas to Atlanta, 23 1/2 hours. I could have done it quicker if I didn't stop for three nap breaks and it hadn't rained on me for the last 300 miles. -
Just a little confused did you mean needle instead of nozzle?

86er with Bubba riding B*T*H. As they slide into the parking lot side ways they looked extremely frazzled like they had been riding at a high rate of speed for quite a long time. As Bubba took his helmet and gloves off I noticed that his hands and face were completely black with smoke soot except for the white spots around his eyes behind his thick coke bottle bottom glasses that greatly magnified his terror filled crossed eyeballs. "What's wrong Bubba, What happened " I asked being concerned about his appearance. "RA...RA...RA...RA" he stammered until 86er slapped him upside the head allowing him to spit out the words, "RandyA's House". "I was wo...wo...wo...wo...wo" Then another slap upside the head from 86er, "working on the the wires when BO...BO...BO...BO...", another slap "BOOM. then all the sm...sm...sm...sm...sm..." slap."Smoke came out of all them wires" Surprising on the last slap Bubba's cross-eyed condition corrected and he began talking normally. At least as normally as Bubba usually talked. 86er explained that he had been stammering like that ever since the explosion and they had to leave RandyA's house somewhat in a hurry. And, if Randy had not have stepped on that nail they might not have escaped with their lives just in the nick of time. 86er then apologized for the weather report he had posted earlier in the story when suddenly.................................Wingman passed us with an extreamly happy Little O'le lady on the back doing a reach around. She also had a definate gleam in her eyes that could only mean love ...............................

Hey, weren't we supposed to meet ECK and the Bama boys and girls at the Tellico Plains Quick Trip? If so we're going in the wrong direction as she pointed to the Fontana Dam Overlook sign. I must have been reading these directions backwards since I am a Aussie girl with a somewhat confused sense of direction, being North of the Equator and all. So, with one quick circular hand signal given by Yama Mama, the whole pack did a perfectly executed U-turn at 35 MPH...... The posted speed limit. Now heading correctly West by North west, we gave our V-4s the full throttle back toward's Deals Gap. Reaching the infamous Deals Gap sign Sleeperhawk's Mechanic was waving us in, So, we decided to stop for one last photo op in front of the sign with the TREE OF SHAME (which was right next to the flaming dumpster being put out by the Graham County Volunteer Fire Department)...in the background...We saddled upto make just one more run down the Tail of the Dragon,.... just for the Hell of it. And, to meet ECK and the Bama Boys and Girls....... As we were pulling out Walter aka WES0778 with his trusty sidekick Wes riding on the passenger seat, pulled into the pack just ahead of the Atlanta DragonSlayer causing him to swerve slightly which caused his mirror mounted camera to bump the windshield thus activating the video record button thereby recording what happened next on digitally recorded video.................... Footnote: Does anyone know how to insert a video segment into the story because I do actually have a recorded video of this part of the story that I would like to add for Historical accuracy. I think that would go a long way to legitimize the validity of the story.

Relax Boys I'm not the police I'm Jerry Motorman Palladino the Nazi Park Ranger and I'm here to arrest the bears for Pic-A-Nik basket thievery and return them to Vogel to stand trial. Be thankful I'm not the police or I would have to arrest the dozen drunken country music groupy chics for being drunk , disorderly and naked in a moving beer filled jacuzzi on state highways. Not to mention giving out a rash of tickets for all kinds of moving violations, Hunting violations, Fashion sense violations and abominations against humanity as a whole I have witnessed in this group. But since I am outside of my jurisdiction I quess I'll just have to compliment ya'll on your riding skills and let ya'll go. He then handcuffed the bears, while Yammer Dan descreetly took the gloves out of the German Shepard's mouth and put them on.

Alternative Fairing styles
Dragonslayer replied to Sandbagger's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Randy, I've loved the look of your mod ever since I saw it in Asheville. I'm thinking of doing the same style mod to mine. But, I was wondering how much more heat from the engine this put on your legs and if the loss of the front chin and lower fairings affected the handleing and aerodynamics of the bike in any way. -
It was getting hot but not at the same rate as the other three. Remember that I had developed and exhaust leak while returning from the dragon. Is it possible that a change in exhaust pressure might effect the intake pressure?
-
Good thought, I'll check that.
