Brake Pad

I have also had a 190 Metlzer on the rear. you'll have to call broward motorsports in davie florida and bombard them with questions on the tire sizes for a Venture. the last three tires I had on the bike were a 190 & 2-180's

Okay, the shop is taking it off, I'm going back to a Metzler 180, I have a used/new tire for sale. (322 miles on it )I just paid 238.00 installed, asking 150.00

after reading all there was to know about the E3's I stepped up and bought one. Man, can't tell you I hate this thing already. I used to run a 180 or 190 meltzer on the rear, But the E 3 came in a 170. The shop guy stated it had a stiffer sidewall on it. Yesterday, I laid the bike over into an intersection turn, and passed the chicken strip. the bike started slipping sideways. Not happy with this at all. I will be replacing it for a wider tire. this tire will be for sale very soon. ( about 400 miles on it ):mo money: I like peg scraping at intersections

2005 yamaha venture, I think 53K on it:Venture:

this afternoon I took a friends bike for a ride and I get this "like grind...grind.....grind...sound/feeling while in gear... But when I pulled the clutch in and free wheel the bike down the highway, the sound stops, what can this be? at first I thought the front wheel bearings needed greasing ( like a dry spot ) and when I roll the bike, engine off, I did not get the clicking noise on the rear hub. New sound to me. my friend asked as he just bought the bike and can't figure it out he said the clutch is new about a thousand miles ago. any Idea's? I'm no bike Guru, My friend james need some help with this one.

Done !!!!

I didn't know they made a 450 rebel......(250?)

learn something new everyday, I didn't know what all that clicking was about. I was told by the dealer, to not hit the start until after that stops. Now I know why. Thankx

South Florida is the same, I know of 4 other ventures, 2000, 2004, 2005, 2007 & a 1st gen 1987

with Mother nature, there is no way to prepare for something like that. the best one can, do Is have an escape route ( if there is a way out )

Here in south Florida we prepare for Hurricanes. we keep a food & water supply for up to 3 weeks, including gas for the generators.

I just love the wealth of information I get here for my Twelve bucks, You guys are AWESOME !!!!

all of five foot nothing

1076 miles in 26 hours, one up pulling my trailer. (figure 10 minute gas stops) ever 135 miles

Great Idea, Now you got everyone thinking......

I push 260, & the Lil wife is ( well ) maybe 115-ish, Then there is the 350 Lb loaded trailer

you know you're in trouble, when you put your feet down at the intersection, and the river of water is flowing over your rimes:whistling:

(Barrycuda) Sadly I won't be attending the rally. Let me do some homework and get back w you regarding the bars. So, I'm not picking you up on the way through?

seems to be split right, just needs to be cut to size, what? maybe two cords out of that ?

I guess my NEW Bike repair guy is a real grease monkey, I had to pull the saddle bags off to clean the rim, (DAMN !!!!), also added the 6 pounds that was missing back there, and the 2 pounds on the front tire... (What's up with that ??) I also changed the rear end oil with some nasty smiling 90 weight.

the Garage is A/C'd & has Carpet:draming:

I can't find it on the tire Is 40 the right pressure for the E 3's?

I just picked up a Dunlop elite 3 rear tire, for the RSV what tire pressure should I be running?

None of this is any good, unless you have your HEALTH.... all the rest is just candy. other than the goodies, I carry duct tape, tie Wraps & toilet Paper:cool10: See Ya on the road !!!!
