Pulled it out and reinstalled and it seems to be ok now

So I have replaced the o-ring and screw for the drain ... The previous owner had covered everything in rtv I cleaned all that off once I put it back together it now leaks worse then before. Any recommendations ?

I already have a repair kit Thanks for the offer though

Installed r6 calipers and stainless lines on the front today... Plugged the front line at the rear master and gutted the proportioning valve... Also installed new tires today and drained the coolant as I need to fix the leak at the drain

hmmm I feel kinda silly that i didnt realize they folded. thank you for making me aware of that... one less thing i need to buy

The stock antenna's are too tall for going in and out of my garage, does anyone have any suggestions for shorter antenna's? ideally just shorter masts that will thread into the stock locations. thanks

have been thinking about puting r1/r6 calipers on the front.... does anyone have any experience with this on a 86? anything I need to look for? what year calipers work? does anyone make a stainless steel line kit thats a direct swap?

I just purchased a 1986 venture royale with 38k miles on it here in upstate NY its still pretty cold and snow on the ground so i have not ridden it yet other then on and off a trailer, its in beautiful shape i purchased it with the intent of doing alot of long distance riding this summer. iv been riding for several years now but never any touring (most miles have been put on a 07 suzuki boulevard M50) I currently have the bike up on my lift and am going through everything in prep to put alot of miles on it this summer, Just wondering if there are any area's I should be paying attention too. it has a set of elite 2's on it that have plenty of tread on them, but they are more then 6 years old, so i have a set of shinko 230's coming for it which i will run this season so far im really excited about this bike i originally set out to buy a goldwing and once i found the venture it was exactly what i was looking for thanks Dan
