    OOPS...sorry...you said "scanner" also. I think that one is just a printer.

    I had one many years ago. It was an HP and worked fine. The only problem was, the ink cartridges were very small and ran out pretty quickly. I know that HP still makes one but it is a much newer model that the one that I had. http://www.shopping.hp.com/product/printer/Officejet/1/storefronts/CB026A%2523B1H

    OK...I honestly don't remember who the first person was. After we had the crash a couple or three years ago, whenever it was, everybody had to register again. I can look up who registered first after the crash but have no way of knowing who the first original members were.

    I would bet that it's a scam.

    Well, it wouldn't be OK for me but you will have to make your own decision. I pull a trailer behind my RSV but I would never pull anything that heavy. Just my opinion and I know that folks have pulled some strange things with bikes.

    Dan, I don't think the stock Yamaha filters will work with the chrome covers. That was always strange to me that they would sell new covers that REQUIRED the K&N filters but that seems to be the case.

    That's really a great looking bike. A few things that I noticed immediately. Not the stock exhaust. KuryAkyn grips. Yamaha chrome bag rails. Chrome gas cap surround. Stock was black. I'm thinking that the mirrors are custom.

    HA...I've got you beat. My scores are higher than most ALL of yours.

    Sorry to hear of your problems. I know exactly how you feel though. I went through a similar, though not as bad, experience before I found my eye problem. It turned out not to even be related to the eye but it was because of that experience that they found the other problems. I hope the medication works for you and it will all be a bad memory soon.

    I don't think it will float out in 4th. With the OEM rear, these bikes will NOT redline in 4th gear. It's been several years but I know I had mine close to 120 in 4th.

    Looks great. That Bushtec will give you many years of enjoyment. Congrats.

    Well unfortunately, I'm afraid so. There should never be any oil coming out of the shock. Now I don't know of any way he could have caused it by swapping the links. Just an unfortunate coincidence I think.

    Jonas, He probably doesn't have it any longer but you might try Rick Butler. I think that he used to have one with some slight damage. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/member.php?do=getinfo&u=183

    and yes, they do make a lowering kit for it. Baron's sells one. At least for the RSV and I THINK it would work on the RSTD also but you will need to check and make sure.

    WOW...this thread has REALLY taken some strange twists. Amazing where folks minds will take them when they don't know the facts. And to think....it all started by me simply mentioning to Tom about a butterfly I saw.

    Just a reminder folks. There will be a pinstriper at my Maintenance Day again this year. Everybody was very pleased with the job he did last year.

    You guys are making me wish I had finished my lessons. I had about 14 hours in a Cessna 150 but that was 25 years ago. Always wish I had finished but was living in a small town with one instructor and he would completely fail to even show up about 50% of the time. I really did enjoy flying though.

    Hey...I love butterflies of all sizes.

    Hey...it has NOTHING to do with any sex positions...well...though..hmmmmm Again

    Nice. Did you paint or use tape? Either way, good job.

    I had the exact same thing happen on my '99 a couple of years ago. Right down to the CD breaking up when I tried to use it. In my case, it was indeed the battery.
  23. Freebird
    That's why I am really happy with the VMAX rear on my '99.

    When I did my search, I didn't use S. I simply used Yamaha then selected Royal Star Venture from the list.

    Well, that is exactly opposite of what most of us would see. Hopefully some others will jump in here on this one but I have to wonder if the floats are set way too high. I am really taking a stab in the dark here but perhaps they are too high but then when running at 85 MPH, they don't have the opportunity to overfill? Otherwise, I would be looking into an electrical problem. A bad charging system that is not letting the plugs fire properly unless you are at a higher RPM?
