  1. Somebody is having a party.
  2. Hoping that it will come back on yah?
  3. You didn't say anything about helping some other poor bloke, but then you probably did that already.
  4. Hey, welcome to our site, hope you can glean from it and enjoy it as much as we do. In answer to your question, please read the intro in the link. https://www.venturerider.org/forum/index.html/
  5. Could be water in the gas maybe. Throw some gas-line de-icer into the tank. Methyl hydrate.
  6. http://jbmindustries.com/Yamaha650.html It's the best place we found to get what you are looking for.
  7. We will be holding you guys up in prayer, it's not known to be a fun time or easy road.
  8. I must be getting older I think,,, just not for me anymore. Now maybe if I had a sprint car.
  9. Wow, you don't fool around,,, totally undressed to get surgery done eh? Nothing like having everything exposed!
  10. I had me one of those but can't remember where it went. so,,,,,
  11. Taking it out is the easy part, wham slam, it's done. Getting the new one in takes a bit more finis for the reason of avoiding some redirected focus of the main beam, some call it cracking. But no matter, always glad to be of assistance. Now if you want to preserve the old and have the new one work, then that will take a whole different set of tools and know how. It can be done, just takes a bit more time and a bit more money.
  12. You just did. Now you get to take that button apart and clean it. Be very careful, go slow and make sure you have a towel, large one, under the switch to catch any tiny things that you might have missed in seeing. I know there is a spring in there that wants to go pop and then totally disappear. That accounts for about 3 hrs of unpaid labour.
  13. So now the question is again, is there 13v at the cables that come away from the battery, not the clamps, the cables, and what happens to that voltage when you hit the start button? If there is 13v at the cables and when you try to start, remains at 13v, then the next thing to check would be the starter solenoid. It should be at the left side of the battery and will have 2 heavy cables attached, one of which go back to the positive on the battery. There should be 13v on the battery side and nothing on the other side. Then there is also a small wire or two going to it and they would be the ones activated by the starter switch. When you push the starter switch it should activate the solenoid and there should now be 13v on both sides of it, if not, check to make sure you have power coming in on the one small wire and ground on the other (while pushing the switch) You might also find a fuse issue if you haven't upgraded the fuse box yet.
  14. Don't mind you telling us at all. Cngrats to the kids! and you.
