+1 on the Nexen. Easiest tire change I've ever done and great ride/performance.

Sorry, I didn't see this earlier. My wife found my service manual.

I cant seem to find my service manual after the move. How much do you want for the Clymer? I assume their is not much different from 2003 to 2006.

I had a custom saddle made for my '83 by Diamond Customs out of FL a while back. Pretty sure they have the RSV covered as well. IRC, I had to call to order as they don't have the Ventures listed on the web site. They were very easy to deal with and the saddle was fantastic.

Black Cherry got her yearly bath this morning. A little late this season, but I've been on the road a lot this year.

I used to put new plugs in my '83 and '86 every year, but I haven't changed the plugs in my '06 RSV since 2019.

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2730016183875736/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_top_picks&referral_story_type=top_picks I found this on the FB Marketplace in Memphis. It might be a solid investment for a parts bike for someone in the near vicinity. If I had room to store it I'd be taking it home with me.

Hate to be "that guy" but, I have never shut off the petcock on my '06 RSV and never had a problem with fuel smell or hydro lock. Maybe just lucky? (maybe just stupid 🤪).

Has anyone here installed the Govee permanent out door LED puck lights on their home? I see a multitude of "Reviews" on youtube and some installation tips, but I 'd like to get some first hand perspective before I install them. I've wanted to do something like this since we moved into the "new" (built in 1880) house. The price tag was a bit above my comfort zone. Then I found three sets of the Govee Permanent Outdoor Lights 2 for the price of one set at an unclaimed freight type store, so I snagged them up. I just need to get the eaves scraped and painted before tackling the lights installation. Like I said, any insights?

Looks like a double post. I responded to the other one.

The easiest place to start is looking for vacuum leaks in the intake circuits and inspecting/cleaning the ignition wire connections. Have the carbs ever been synchronized?

Pretty sure the RSV plastics are interchangeable year to year. Not so for the Gen 1 MK1 and MK2. I could be wrong but someone here will correct me if I am.

I also have the WS Mk2(and Mk1) without the tool sharpening kit. It does do a great job quickly on most edges. I like it very much, but the ProPrecAdust is just head and shoulders above it for a hair splitting edge. The MK2 is probably the better choice for longer blades, but for pocket knives and shorter fixed blades, the ProPrecAdjust is quick and easy.
