Keep looking, there is a screw at the back by the seat, then 2 under the fairing (have to remove the rad cover to see them) then there are 2 up front, one one the chin scoop under the headlight and one directly under the faring in a depressed tower. I think that's it. If it still holds on there has to be more

I know that Bob is quite alright with what the Great Shepherd has or will decide for him and Becky, although if Bob had his way he would not leave this present world before Becky. I will speak to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, maybe he will see it Bob's way.

Now if you think about that statement, you'll come to realize that the happening was a Canadian show of love and respect for our neighbors. The Canadians must have got together, realized how under powered their dear friends were and sent one of their best to help them out, even though it might mean a loss on their side. I would say that the Canadian character really shone out and so in that respect could be seen by some, if not most, the ultimate winners. Times change though and if you really, really want to do this thing on your own, we can see if we can find other ways to help you out.

No Problem there Big Boy,,, the Canadians have 2nd place all sewed up, just because we let the home team be #1 . Watch out though, you will have to make it look like you made an effort, otherwise we will beat you,,, we can only go SOOOO slow!!! :canada:

Not too often that I've heard of a throttle cable breaking, if at all. My mind goes to the reason why, and the thought is that sometime in the past that lower cable might have been routed wrong at the carb. There is a nylon spacer on the linkage rod, right in the good position to indicate to the uninformed that it should be a bearing for the cable to ride on. News Flash!! It is not there for that purpose, it is a spacer only and the cable should not ride on it, fact is the cable needs to go under it, on the carb side, not on the outside. This may have caused wear on the cable,, maybe,,, just a thought.

Thanks for posting Wayne, prayers will be sent for his family and friends.

Well I suppose that there maybe somebody who would like to know how this all turned out. The mufflers, yep! not one but two, made it home just fine, and now one of them noise reducers are mounted and tasked to the job. Looks not too bad actually, even kind of pretty somewhat. Now about the sound,,,,, it's good, really nice and good! It's not sparkie, not obnoxious, not quiet or loud, doesn't rumble and is not intense, just has a low sound of a perfectly tuned engine, mounted by a happy rider. Thanks Gary

I think you might be well advised to review your request. There would be water on 3 sides of your abode and you on the inside,, but my mind wanders

Sometimes I love old threads,, and then there are times I wish old threads were regarded as just that!!! old and out of date and mind! -
My opinion: It's not the mistakes one makes, but, what one does about them that counts.

How times changed EH? -
Air box / air filter box
Marcarl replied to sailur's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
The one coming from the center of the box can be a real pain. You could use good light from both sides from the front of the engine, long wide screwdrivers and or long handle needle nose pliers. Install the hose on the airbox first, then drop it ever so slowly into the right location, which needs to be determined ahead of time. Watch and guidance is the word here. Best to use two hands and two eyes, each coming from a different human. If you get the routing right, the bottom slips on easy enough, get it not quite right and you struggle. I have got that little sucker on in 1 minute, and the next time it would take 1/2hour. Routing is the key I think! -
Hey Don,,, we were going to go this week, but not now anymore. Things have changed a bit since this morning and we no longer need to go,,,, seeing as the pipes are here at home, nice and cuddled away,,, they had their first ever Spyder ride today, and got well indoctrinated. Twisty and turnies, fast and slow, rain and dry,, yep a full fledged experience for them. They must have enjoyed it, because after the first shock of real riding and trying to get off, they stayed perfected put for the rest of the way to Burlington and then back to their new home. Maybe next time.

I have tried to resolder that connector a number of times, sometimes it just doesn't work to re-flow the solder, you actually have to desolder and then apply new solder. That might help ya. -

Do plan on installing a wave maker in the pond Don? I think I might know somebody who could design one.

Maybe the question could be; Who are you expecting?

Lookin good, now who gets to camp on it? Will it take an excellence in something? Maybe being the best Hugger?

Ahhhh Lewis,, thanks for the offer, I sure to appreciate it and would think it would make a wonderful trip to come pickup such a good deal, but I'm not sure just exactly where Georgia might be, so to make the transfer, here is what I offer: You pay the shipping, sending an extra $50 just in case there are duties or taxes or some other such levies that the Gov Officials might conjure up to make the transfer cause a deep hole in my pocket. You also need to transfer the said items free of any charge for the price of purchase. Reasons why: If I were to take you up on your offer, then @GaryN might get just a bit ticked off, seeing as he would still then have to keep his in storage and they would be in his way. Also I would not have the golden opportunity to visit with Gary and his wonderful wife Mary,,, I haven't seen them for quite some time. As well as the aforementioned Ben, @saddlebum would be all bummed out, seeing as he also wanted to tag along for the visit and ride, don't know why he didn't just go on his own, but it may have something to do with being directionally challenged, or needing more instruction on proper hugging procedures. As I said before, your offer is wonderful, but maybe a bit more than you really had planned on investing into this venture.

Now let's get you on the straight side of things. First you are referring to noise adjusters as being referred to as tyers and then you get confused with @dogman having anything to know about Spyders let alone engines, then you throw in Ice-Cream which you obviously know little about (gleaned that from another thread) and you expect the rest of us well developed varmits to be able to even comprehend even the slightest of your desire, or desirement?? I just asked my wife, and she knows all this stuff, and you know you just can't argue with the missus,, and she said the definitely, beyond a shadow of a doubt, which in other words means: case closed!! and we're onto another subject because I had the final word and that's that!!!! Yep she said that about desirement, that it really ain't a word at all!!! I even showed her the definitions in the thing called dictionary,, but she says there is no need for that word so it ain't one. What am I to,,, agree ofcourse,,, I just told her I made up a new word,, and that was the end of that.!.!..... Mosquitoes are bad in the doghouse tonight!!
