  1. XVZ13DTC is the California version with extra polution control system on carb bank.
  2. I've got the fuel pet cock but I need to sell the knob with the pet cock because one without the other does not sell well on ebay. It has not been listed yet so make me an offer. 2 are on ebay and the front two have not been removed yet.
  3. Which console display are you looking for? Probably still have it. The windsheild chrome is already on ebay.
  4. My Vote is Copperhead Lodge in Blairsville, Ga. www.Copperheadlodge.com Copperhead Lodge is a great motorcycle venue/Resort within easy stricking distance and happens to be located smack Dab in the middle of the "Golden Riding Triangle" (a phrase I just made up). The area that I refer to includes the world class motorcycle ride roads twisting throught the beautiful Southern Applachian Mountains of Eastern Tenneessee, Western North Carolina and North Georgia. Some of these world class rides include Tail of the Dragon, Cherohala Skyway, Foothills Parkway, Southern Blue Ridge Parkway, Helen, Ga Shamrock Tour. But you'll find that wherever you are in the triangle any route taken from destination to destination, is really a world class ride in itself. The Golden Riding Traingle should really be experienced during the Fall Leaf Season. Where the mountain fall foliage colorations will take your breath and the seasonal temperture range and weather make for perfect riding conditions. The lodge features Cabin/room rentals as well as tent camping with a outdoor amphitheater stage that would be perfect for a ride-in Jam session for the Biker/Musicians of the group. They also have a great restuarant and lodge for indoor group activities should weather require. They also have a pool and outdoor Jacuzzi, loads of porch style rocking chair areas and totally cater to motorcycles and bikers. I believe the Lodge would be an ideal venue for this type of event. And should this be the 2009 site selected it would be close enough for me to attend and participate in the organization and orchistration of the event.
  5. I'm glad you got it figured out, :cool10:Happy Riding.:7_6_3[1]:____________________
  6. I've been relooking at the mascot and I see a way I can fix it and fit it in on my new paint scheme on 87VR, but, I don't know make me an offer that will talk me out of it. I've got enough projects. The vents are already on ebay and current bid is $4.99.
  7. I just won a set off ebay for C $20.00 = USD $19.82 ebay dealer name 1procycle
  8. Dan, I'm about to add some running lights to mine can you send me some details on connecting points. Bob
  9. I'm sorry, I assumed you were up to speed on what I was talking about. My Bad. At the top of the page just under the Welcom USER ID Name box is a link labeled Quick Links. Hit that then you will see a selection Social Groups when you hit that the Names of the four currently existing social Groups window will appear Biker/Musicians being one of them.
  10. I was more interested in the patches, Decoder rings and possible t'shirts, concession rather than taking office. I'm not sure I can pass public scrutiny to hold a political office.http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/15/15_1_120.gifhttp://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/15/15_1_137.gif I'm now wondering how I slid under the radar of the Approval Committee.http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_15_56.gif
  11. OKey Dokey, When you say JOIN US AS MEMBERS are you referring to the Venturerider.org "US" membership group, which they are already members of, or, are you referring to Biker/Musician Social group "US" that already exist on this forum? If you mean the Biker/Musician Social group "US" , Well then, I'll try to encourage them to do so, and whom must they apply to that represents the approval department, to make sure they a worthy of membership into this already existing sub-Group. If personal references would be helpful in the application process, I offer mine, for whatever that's worth. I don't think your suggestion of a Sub-Sub Social group will be necessary.
  12. I bought one a while back off Ebay to replace mine. As I recall I paid around $35.00 plus shipping. There is one on Ebay now with a current bid (13 current bidders) of $46.00 plus shipping. I've seen them go as high as $85.00. Make me an offer. I'm not sure what shipping to Nova Scota is, but I'll check.
  13. Same thing happened to me, almost. Ain't this group great
  14. No thats a Super MacModerator with Cheese and jumbo fries............
  15. I happen to know 2 , (No actually 3) Forum members that live in my neck of the world that need to be inducted, encouraged, pursued or harrassed into this Social (..... Or Anti-Social Group...........Hmmm, ............. Only time will tell) club. All of whom I happen to have been fortunant enough to have spent time with yesterday.:banana: One of which being BLACKJACK Terry. I spent time with BLACKJACK yesterday because as a dedicated forum member, he is the one that has taken it upon his shoulders, and to his credit, organized and Host the Monthly North Georgia M & E which occurs on the second Saturday of each month. But not only that is(as I found out yesterday) is a musician playing the drums :smash2:and guitar. :guitarist 2:He also happens to be a friend and the Design/build general contractor to the owner of Galaxy Music. :whistling:He recently completed a project of building the new Galaxy Music store on GA 400 near Dahlonega, GA whice we rode by yesterday :7_6_3[1]:and where his son happens to be the new Store Manager.:cool10::whistling: Also at yesterday's N Ga M&E was a relatively new Forum member, 1st time M&E participants, avid Guitar collector :mo money:and aspiring Guitar musician:guitarist 2:. COLUMBO. He and his significant other, whose name (to my discredit) :doh:I didn't catch or retain, seem to be super people and ride a beautifull 2nd Gen Midnight Venture. Also another relatively new forum member, MATTCHARVA, and are also reunited Old friends, and..... who I happen to be rebuilding an 84 XVZ12 VR for. Matt is a talented musician that I have actually jammed with, plays a killer Piano, and Guitar:guitarist 2: and does great lead vocals. :Im not listening toMatt and his wife Charlotte were over for dinner last night and are also super people :cool10:that will fit right with the VentureRider and Biker/musician group. So :icon_smile_questionwho's in charge of the new membership committee for this Social?? Group. Oh yea, and..:icon_smile_question........will there patches for this club? .................:banana:or maybe a secret membership decoder ring.:banana:
  16. The part is what I call chromilized plastic. The scratches will not buff out. What I have done on this type part before is to fill scratches with bondo sand smoot and paint over it. As I did with plastic mirror in attached photo. Yamaha wants high dollars for this particular piece if they are still available, and you never seem to see the come up on Ebay. That's why I never replaced it.
  17. You'll just always be known as the Super Syncarator to me:173:...........Boing, Boing, Boing, Boing, Boing, Boing, Boing,Boing........... Where's that banjo music coming from? ................. Just Kidding:stickinouttounge:
  18. Erik, Nice talking to you on the phone this morning, Welcome to the forum. You'll find a wealth of information and a wealth of great people here that will help keep your new ride healthy and you continually happy and proud of her. I found the test proceedure in shop manual for the rectifier/regulator and soon as I get Clear on test proceedure with advice from one of the experts I will test the part I have and let you know what the results are. Send me a fax number and I'll fax a copy of the test proceedure so you can test the one you have to make sure It has failed and it's not something else..
  19. Speedo, I've got it and everything seems to light up when powered But since the bike is not running I have not actually seen speedo work . So, what I can do to test the gauge cluster is to install it on my bike and give it a test spin. This may take me a day or two to get done. I'll get back to as soon as I can with more information. The fairing frame pieces seem to be good so far. All the outer pieces of the fairing, console panels and bezels, fake tank cover, grills around handle bars and lower front fairings and headlight trim all line up properly. Both upper front fairings do not have any tale-tell skint places on the top outermost edge, outside from mirrors, where these beast seem to make contact with the ground when they fall over. I'll take a pic and forward when I remove it. Rubber boot around tank filler is good
  20. Bump
  21. Last week going through Maryland I saw a costume roadside waving customers into the parking lot character, By the time I circled the block to get a pic he was gone. I think the problem is that it's so hot inside those costume get ups that they don't stay in the sun very long. If I every get to pick the target again I'm gonna pick You, Your Bike and the Oscar Mayer Wiener Whistle Vehicle.:rotfl:I saw it in Maryland last week as well.
  22. Answers my question!!!!!!!!! Where's Lowell?????????????
  23. Congrats, nice looking ride. You deserve it especially since you got my carbs straightened out.
  24. There was no CB on this bike and the right side Class Controller bezel has already been promised. Do have the Speedo Tach console The outer front cover of which has some damage but the inside Gauge cluster appears to be in good shape.
  25. Yes I have one the outside is somewhat oxidized but can be cleaned up. I have not removed it yet so I have not opened it to see what the inside looks like but all the brakes work on the bike.
