Can't use this, but it looks awesome,,, thanks a lot carl

If it's hot it got resistance in there somewhere,, and that will cause problems, like failure. If it were mine and I wasn't going to change it just yet, I would squirt it with lots of Deep Creep and then maybe not have any problems ever,, but then what do I know,,, first gens don't have that issue,,, they always start.

Battery indicator question.....
Marcarl replied to 83VR3711's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
You would have to first of all check the output of your stator. There is often a problem at the white connector, 3 white wires coming from the stator, below the seat on the left hand side. I would take that apart first, check it, clean it, grease it with dielectric grease and put it back together. In the same area is anothe rconnector with 5 wires, different colors, I think there are 2 reds, that also tend to give problems. Take this one apart as well and do the same thing. If that don't fix your problem you may have a battery on it's last legs, that would also couse this issue. Some one else will chime in with all the specs on how to test all this with a meter and the values needed. For now you have something to work on and should be done anyways. -
SO these solutions may be right off the wall, but sometimes the wall is kind of handie. Check to make sure the tire is mounted properly, it should be even by the ridge all the way around and even side to side. After checking for brake drag, back off the pads a little with a screw driver, lift the front wheel and give it a spin. Do this a number of times and each time mark the top spot. I should not come to rest in the same spot twice. That would indicate that it is not balanced right. Also check to see how much weight is on the wheel to balance it, more than 25gr would not be good either and if you have that much it should be placed evenly on both sides of the ridge. Also check to make sure that the tire is turning in the direction it's designed to. There is an arrow on the side wall that tells you which way it should be turning when you're going forwards. keep us posted Carl

Shouldn't have that from a V4, haven't heard of that problem before, like has been mentioned, smooth the engine, new plugs, clean carbs and a carb sync, are the things I would look at.

I really feel sorry for you, I can't believe that it could be sooo bad, man that must hurt, how long do you think it will be before she can get back to doing the floors and windows again???????? Glad I ride a first gen, least I have a chance of staying ahead of what's to come:no-no-no: ????????

I really think if you park the scoot inside as proposed, it would be awesome for MamaMo, she would be able to see at a glance if you were home, or out on a ride. Now she has to guess or go looking to see where you are or aren't and then have to come up with a conclusion as to whether you were or weren't or decide whether you come or gone, or conclude that your all gone and may not ever return. Knowing all that, she might just decide that it's better to keep you around for a day or two more and so allow you to keep the scoot where everybody can keep an eye out on it.

Hey you all,, glad you're ok,,,,, coming down here were ya???? well that was nice,,I could even have been home,,,,what a mess those cars are in,,,,,,,more cheap metal for GM to build new ones I guess,,,,,,,hope it all turns out ok and you heal fast,,,,,,,,need something, just call and we'll see what can be accomplished.

I can agree with you there, Dan. I have a very long story on that issue, and we're still in the middle of it being developed, fact is development took a direct turn SOUTH and things are set to change around here, big time. It good to know at times like this that the future is not in our own hands, but is guided by our Creator who knows all and sees all. Some day when the story is complete I'll share it but not for right now, I want to be unbiased when I report the happenings.

Oh yah I got me one of those, must have been made by Ford, last week it was Fix Or Repair Daily. It's good to go now though, and I'll bet I'll not need it much anymore this winter,, that's just the way the cookie crumbles. We'll see how it all comes out in the wash.

Very interesting, I don't fly, but I enjoyed watching it anyways. Thanks Jopie Carl

There's one piece of consolation in all of this Don,,,,,if today don't turn out so bright, there is always tomorrow,,which could be somewhat less dim,,, hope for tomorrow, then maybe you'll get somewhere....??? glad to hear that you're having a normal day,, at least the pond must be frozen over by now,,, maybe a good parking spot for the Ford:whistling:

I love the comments so far, especially Earl's. That's what we're looking for,,,blast away,, have fun cutting up the local 'butcher'. I do so much of it it's time to read all about it. Actually it's mostly Wayne and his daughter's ideas so it really doesn't hurt me personally a whole lot:whistling:,,,I'll just have to pay more for all the great comments. We'll make some modifications in the next few days and then come back for the semi-final approval. If this works out as planned I'll even make a donation to the VentureRiders site, which brings up that subject again so that we're all reminded that it does need doing from time to time. Thanks again guys, and if there are any girls than can give input, that would be great as well. Carl

Now here is an opportunity for you all to have some real input. Wayne (Wizard765) has designed a new web site for us. This site only focuses on one little portion of our business, in this case being pet food. I would like your comments on the design, setup, information given or anything else that might come to your mind. Don't go easy, let fly now. It's only in the design stages and there's room fo changes but we need to know where or what they should be. http://www3.sympatico.ca/higson/

Western NY here I come. The more people I meet from this site, the more friends I find. It doesn't seem to matter that I'm different or that you're not the same, and that what friendship is all about. \ Blessed Christmas All Carl

Throttle Cable Lubrication
Marcarl replied to ManWithAVision's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
They do make a cable lubricating tool, it's not very big, but you put it on the end of the cable shield with the cable going through it. It has an input for the little red tubes from a lubricating spray can. This unit gets installed with the spray can attached, you spray the lub right into the cable housing. Easy as 123. Your MC dealer should have one of these things, if not, call me and I'll get one for you.
