  1. In the interest of maintaining a sensible blood pressure for certain members of this Forum I will not respond with any comments regarding the performance,parentage,or lineage of the 1st Gen motorcycle.......... Boomer.........who could be up for Sainthood if he can keep this up.
  2. All 2nd Gen riders are normal. All others fall into the "Feel Sorry For" category. Boomer........who is in the Kitchen and can take the heat.....
  3. Actually I have been keeping my eyes open for a 1st Gen. If I can find one that I am drawn to I will jump on it. My main problem is that I don't have a suitable garage in which to work on any bike. Boomer.....who knows that adaption is the key to overcome any obstacle.
  4. Click on the link to read and get info regarding your windshield. Link: http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=29954 Boomer.....who's been using Lemon Pledge for years....on the whole scoot.
  5. Now now Redneck don't be getting the poor fellar to the point where the veins are popping out on his neck.......... Boomer.....who's glad to be riding a motorcycle instead of a .....well you know!!
  6. Hey Earl.....If you have read much on this Site you should have noticed that there is a lot of joshing between the 1st and 2nd Genners. Nothing said was intended to be taken personal or insulting. Boomer.....who's not going to argue with anyone who has a washing machine complex..
  7. Bwwwwaaaahahahahahaha............... Boomer......who has not laughed this hard since he saw the local Cat House raided onna Sunday morning by the Baptist Preacher.
  8. If you are buying NEW my advice is to have the Dealer do the preps (correctly as noted on this Site!) on the Venture before you pick it up! If you have a good Dealer he won't mind having his Tech's doing all the right things to keep you on the road and happy. Boomer........who hopes you have a good Dealer and you won't rush delivery of the scoot.
  9. Lowell ya might want to try doing leg exercises to strengthen the leg muscles and get the blood flow back up. Good luck and hope you fair well with the leg. Boomer.......who sez chasing pretty wimmen will be beneficial too.(Chasing the ugly one's won't help cuz they are slow....like the 1st Gens)
  10. Last year my Venture was doing exactly as you described. We discovered a weak coil was the problem. Found a wet plug on the right-side rear cylinder.Yamaha ate the Bill for the coil and a new plug too. Boomer.....who knows the Venture will still run like a scalded ape on 3 cylinders.
  11. Once you learn to keep the rev's up and stay away from 5th you will know why the Midnight Ventures are the fastest scoots on the road. If ya want gas economy buy a compact car or a 1st Gen warshing machine(Maytag Model # 666-ALL-SLOW)! Boomer.........who believes that lugging the Venture is why the 1st Gen Maytags come close to catching us.
  12. Try placing a hunk of sheepskin over that seat of yours.....as long as you are parked on top of it the wind can't blow it off. Boomer.........who also reccommends that you NOT park the scoot near any live sheep as they will try to kick yer a$$ for using one of their relatives in such a manner.
  13. No horse for them......$$$ for more chrome instead. Boomer.........who see's as many 1st Gens as Harley's on the road shoulder waiting for a trailer......and now knows the Maytag Man has guaranteed employment.
  14. Got it and back at ya.......... Boomer.........the consumate horse trader.....I think.
  15. I have yet to check the Rev Limiter on my Venture. Came close a few times but no ceegar yet. Boomer......who leaves em in the dust with 2nd and 3rd gear....and loves watching the rearviews for Harley parts hitting the road.
  16. Pillow top mufflers???? Boomer..........who's anxious to see what these rascals look like!
  17. Rick I have a set of the Baron's 1 1/2" Riser Extenders. If you think they will help give a shout. I bought them before I had the Butler Seat Mod done and never put em on the scoot cuz the Seat Mod did the trick for me. Boomer..........who really loves the Butler Seat Mod.
  18. I have seen just 1 Midnight Venture that has whitewalls and I wasn't impressed with the look it gave the scoot. Boomer........who has no intention of making his Midnight Venture look like a Pimp bike.
  19. Thanks Doc.....Comments like yours do help the ongoing healing process. And thank you for your service as well Sir. Boomer........who will stand with the Patriot Guard until the Patriot Guard stands for him.
  20. David I thank you for your service Bro. I lost 2 buddies because they crawled into whiskey bottles and never got out of them. I can relate to that cuz it took the US Navy 8 years to get me out of the bottle.With many Nam Vets nothing a body could say or do to help them seemed to make a damn in getting them off the course of self destruction. IMHO the American people caused more deaths among Nam Vets than the actual results of combat. Anyone that don't agree with that should realize that 2/3 of the homeless people in this entire Country TODAY are Nam Vets. Nuff said.......... Boomer...........who's said enuff and needs to stifle some emotions now.
  21. Well kiss my grits......I done shot mahself right in the durn foot on this one. Thanks Don......everything looks OK for now. Boomer.....who's never claimed to be a pooter whiz and does not trust a keyboard that eats cookie crumbs.
  22. Some cyber crook is stealing my signature on every post I put up ! Anything I can do to catch the perp? Boomer.........who has a gun pointed at the pooter monitor.
  23. I have to say with all respect that the only Hero's of a war are those who paid the ultimate sacrifice and now lie silent in their graves. Boomer........who was only a Hero to his little brother after pounding a local bully into the sidewalk.....and did it without a gun too.
  24. Rosebud if you PM me your brother's name I will do a shadow imprint of his name and send it to you. It would be my honor and no disposition to me in the least. (Many of us here are participating in providing Guard Duty for the Wall (around the clock) to prevent vandalism to the Wall.....I'm scheduled for a 6 hour night shift Friday night). Warmest regards........Boomer....who would really like to see some s*itbird try to vandalize the Wall on his shift.
  25. If I wuz closer to you I'd be all over that deal like stink onna fart......... Boomer........who needs a secondary warshing machine.
