  1. sarges46, Can you post a picture or your midnight so I can see what the trunk looks like. Screaming Red
  2. jeeper0202, Spoiler looks great. Can you run that spoiler with a luggage rack? Screaming Red
  3. Took my front dash off to look at the harness that runs from the running lights and found a green wire disconnected in the harness. Reconnected green wire gave the harness more slack and everything works now. Screaming Red:thumbsup:
  4. Hi everyone. I have read some posts on this have tried many things? My front right signal will just flash slightly and rear will flash quickly. When I used my 4 way flashers back will blink correctly front will blink slightly. I have replaced both front and rear with what is suggested by the Yamaha. I also have cleaned out any corrosion and applied dialectric grease. Any help will be appreciated. Screaming Red
  5. I also hope for a completely new Venture but something tells me money will play an important roll here or lack of it. Either way I will but one.!!!!! Screaming Red
  6. Hello everyone, I spoke to a Yamaha Store shop foreman at the Toronto International Motorcycle Show about what is coming for the Venture in 2010. He said they are testing the new VMax motor in the Venture(slightly detuned to around 160hp) and if all goes well we could see it 2010 or at worst 2011. He also mentioned that there doesnt seem to be to many changes to the rest of the bike. They are also looking very closely at the Vmax to ensure the motor works without problems. Hope all goes well with the VMax!!!!!!!! Screaming Red:080402gudl_prv:

  9. Hi to all, I have a 99 venture and on the weekend my cassette would not eject. When I hit the button I could hear a beep through my radio. Has anyone else experienced this before? Screaming Red
  10. I got the new tire on and kept the disc covers with the damper off. I used disc brake quiet its like a mild adhesive for the brake pads and also champhered the edges of both pads and absolutely no brake noise at all. Thanks for all the tips guys I thought I would have to live with brake squeal period. I also own a Suzuki M109R and did notice a slight champher to the pads maybe thats why their quiet. Screaming Red:bighug:
  11. Marcarl, Thanks for the tip. I will take them off and chanmpher the edges and see how it works. Screaming Red
  12. pegscraper, I didn't notice the dampner at first, but even with them on and a new set of front pads man do the front brakes squeal !!!!.Do you mean they are going to get louder:confused24:. Has anyone found front pads that are less prone to squeal. Screaming Red
  13. Thank you very much, I removed the dust covers of my front wheel never a big fan of them but you need to remove the rotor bolts and wasn't sure about the spec. Screaming Red:bighug:
  14. Having my front tire replaced on my 99 venture by the dealer and reinstalling myself. Can anyone let me know what the torque specs are for the rotors and shaft. Screaming Red
  15. I am replacing my front tire but need the torque specs for the rotors and shaft. I'm having a dealer install tire on rim and trying the Dunlop E3 for the first time. Screaming Red
  16. 1154, I was able to replace the front plugs without having to remove either brace. Remove chrome cover ontop of cylinder head use adjustable wrench to loosen plug. Once loose remove wrench and slipe plug up with till you see socket. Remove extension and put finger on socket and slide socket up with plug. Use piece of rubber and slige new plug in and tighten. Insert socket slowly and drop in place then add extension and wrench to tighten. My freind removed brace and the cross threaded bolt. Screaming Redf

  18. Quicksilver, I always use a half helmet but did'nt want to pay over $200.00. I found a company at the Toronto bike show called IMC motorcom websit www.imc-motorcom.com. The ones I bought are HS-G45. Only paid $75.00 and outstanding sound and fit quality. I ride with 3 other venture riders and all bought these headsets. Screaming Red

  22. Hi to all, Just bought a 99 venture and very happy with it, but front forks have taken a beating. I can buy a set of chrome forks off a 2006 venture but unsure if they will fit. If so is there a how to on this forum. Screaming Red
