    Larger leather bags might be the best option. Yamaha doesn't make a larger sized saddle in the OEM style, and if your thinking about chopping up the ones you have now they'll need to be repainted if you want them to look good.... unless you don't care about cosmetics?? Keep us posted on what you decide to do... Take pics...

    That's what I told Don about Annie's trailer. They made it into the box anyway... I really don't want to take the chance... being fond of living and all..... http://www.cast-aways.com/images/OldCodger.jpg

    I'm not sure what the tape was that I used, but I did pick it up from a commercial auto paint store. I'm not worried about anything coming off.....

    The first time they appeared was in the '90 VentureLine Catalog, and it states that they fit 'all models' from '83 on. So they will fit any Venture '83-'93....

    I absolutely guarantee that someone else will be going home with that trailer..... It's driving me nutz that I can't participate, but I took the oath, and I figured that under the circumstances it's only fair.. Besides I did get a death threat from one member already.... http://www.cast-aways.com/CONDORPICS/Sam-Side.jpg

    Had a young...er friend drop by to chat last week. He just bought this low mile 99RSV and complained about the tires wearing out in 5000 miles. I asked him what brand and he responded with Dunlop 404's. I recommended he pick up a set of E3's soon.... He is younger, and does ride more agressively than most, and the bike is his daily transportation. He loves the bike and it'll be interesting to see what he gets out of the new set...

    I like radar detectors. They keep me awake when traveling at night.

    Thanks for the heads up on Bob, Tom. Hope it's nothing serious.....
  12. Condor
    Yep, bought a set of those myself. Big hands just don't fit in tiny places....

    Hang in there Annie, and I hope the bikes are stored high and dry...

    Low float bowl levels and possible vapor lock come to mind....

    Sorry to hear about the mishap. What weight were the ramps rated for?? You may have some recoarse on the damage??? There's a lot to be said about having a ramp gate on a trailer.

    Wow it's tough dealing with a detail man... You must go back and reread each and every post for your material. I guess the oat comment must have offended you?? But since you brought the subject up. Do you want to explain to me your wisdom of comparing two cars...or more... with minimum ground clearance, drafting down a straightaway at 200+mph bumper to bumper, with the air lift effect on a motorcycle trailer, 12 to 14 inches off the ground being pulled down the road at 75+... 4 to 5 feet behind the bike. Common sense just might tell you they are not the same thing. My first post was a friendly expression of an idea. Sometimes I get a little 'country' when trying to make them that way. Hence the oat comment about fuel consumption. As far as sarcasism goes, you might look in the mirror. Your "Ever heard of NASCAR and drafting?" (sic), might just be interpreted as exactely what you were complaining about, and what I took offense to. Sorry but that's the way I respond when someone starts to get smart ass with me. So... this is going to be my last post on this tread.. Take your best shot in your response. I'm out of here....

    Good Luck.... Take lots of pics....

    Oat eating?? (sic) Not sure I know what you're talking about. Something to do with NASCAR???

    Sounds like it's doing what it's supposed to be doing. That's why they call them regulators...or rectifyers... Put a load on the bttery and it should or could go back up to 14.2-14.3vdc

    It's never too much. Nothing like a good toe dip to keep things cool down there. You should try it sometime, it's never too late. It's refreshing..... At least we're off the sarcasm.. veiled threat thing.... Now about that oil???
  21. Condor
    Geeze it was sarcastic... now it's a veiled threat.... Must be that NASCAR water...
  22. Condor
    Thanks, I liked that.....
  23. Condor
    I kill green things with little or no effort......
  24. Condor
    Sarcastic?? Moi??? I guess sarcasism is in the eye of the beholder???? Yeah, I guess it's all my fault, but you know what they say about those hot kitchens....
  25. Condor
    Geeze no... what's that????
