Kathy & I will probably go. Can't wait to see all the major changes they put into the RSV this year. It's a joke folks, I know it's just a color change...

If the 2nd Gen tech library doesn't have it you might try getting a repair manual. You can get a CD version cheaply, like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/YAMAHA-ROYAL-STAR-VENTURE-REPAIR-SERVICE-MANUAL-99-06_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp3286Q2ec0Q2em14QQhashZitem25566eb6fbQQitemZ160363886331QQptZMotorsQ5fManualsQ5fLiterature or a hard copy like this: [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Yamaha-Royal-Star-1996-2003-Motorcycle/dp/0892878088/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1253904912&sr=8-2]Amazon.com: Yamaha Royal Star: 1996-2003 (Clymer Motorcycle Repair) (9780892878086): Primedia Business Directories & Books: Books[/ame] I like the hard copy and always carry it with me ... just in case.

I went to the site as I also have clutch slippage (66K miles). However, I don't see any mention of clutch kits at pcwracing. Am i missing something?
-
Looks like we're at 6 now. Anyone else?
-
Yep, we'll be there for breakfast.
-
Same here.
-
Kathy & I may be there. I'll let you know later.

Can you use 4 colortunes at one time? If so, I can bring mine and that'll be 2 of the 4 needed.
-
OK, add me to the list. I'll take one set. Thanks.

I was using the Carbtune II until I noticed the sticking rod issue.
-
Like you, I didn't like how they stuck. I had to move them to different angles to get them to move freely. I'm hoping to find something better.

I'm sure this won't be a popular view on motorcycle forums but it is a rational one. One argument I constantly read bout is that deaths are not increased by wearing or not wearing a helmet. Deaths are the big, final injury. I've worked as an EMT for a hospital and you can get many long term or permanent brain injuries without dying. Perhaps there are studies on that, but I haven't seen them - only number of deaths. The debate has many facets. I don't want the government to regulate me but I also don't want to pay out of my pocket (in the way of taxes, or increased license fees or insurance or anything that the government can think up) for someone else to receive care for the rest of their lives because they decided that they didn't need to protect themselves. No matter what side of the issue you stand on, you don't have a perfect answer to the problem.

Great! Thanks Carlos.

Hey Carlos, Are you going to the Michigan Maintenance Day at my house in a couple of weeks? If you are, can you bring the equipment over and tune the CBs that might need it?

Beleive me, lights don't do you any good when they're just not looking. A couple of months ago I was stopped in a left turn lane waiting for traffic to go by. As soon as the last car cleared I found myself shooting across two lanes and halfway up the curb. I was hit from behind. My bike's rear end is lit up like a Christmas tree but it didn't help a bit. I was lucky that the road had cleared else things would have been a lot worse than it was.
