    2008 ROYAL STAR VENTURE
  1. BEFORE SENDING THE GARMIN BACK TRY REMOVING THE BATTERY FROM THE BACK FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES. PUT THE BATTERY PACK BACK AND SEE IF IT WILL TURN ON. MY ZUMO 550 DOES THE SAME THING. IT IS STATIC LOCK UP AND HAPPENS FROM TIME TO TIME. IT IS JUST LIKE RE-:Venture:BOOTING A COMPUTER.
  2. i ordered a windshield bag yesterday.
  3. I want to purchase a windshield bag for my 2008 royal star venture. I don't know which one to get or where to buy it. Recommendations are appreciated. Thank you?
  4. WHILE IN THE FL, PANHANDLE TAKE THE TIME TO RIDE THE RECENTLY RE-OPENED ROAD FROM NAVARRE BEACH TO PENSACOLA BEACH. IT IS A BEAUTIFUL RIDE AND WELL WORTH THE TIME. A GOUP OF US MADE THE RIDE YESTERDAY. WE LOVED IT. I HAD FORGOTTEN JUST HOW PRETTY THE BEACHES WERE ON THAT STRETCH OF ROAD. THIS ROAD HAS BEEN CLOSED SINCE HURRICANE DENNIS AND IS RE-:Venture:OPENED NOW.
  5. I HAD ONE PUT ON THE REAR OF MY BIKE LAST WEEK AND I COULD NOT BELIEVE HOW MUCH OF A DIFFERENCE IT MADE IN MY RIDE.
  6. I DECIDED TO GO WITH THE DUNLOP ELITE III. MADE THE PURCHASE TODAY. :thumbsup:IT WILL BE INSTALLED NEXT WEEK. Y'ALL ARE A GREAT BUNCH AND I THANK ALL OF YOU FOR YOUR INPUT.
  7. Thank you very much for your time and suggestions. I thought that it would be pretty much between the dunlops and avons. The one thing that i knew is that it would not be another bridgestone on my bike. I don't know why yamaha would put such a sorry tire on such an excellent bike in the first place.
  8. :bang head:I am at the point that i need a new rear tire. After 7000 miles my origial bridgestone is worn out. I need suggestions on a replacement for my 2008 rsv of something other than a bridgestone. I am hoping for something that will be a high mileage tire with good handling capabilites. Does anyone have some suggestions with approximate prices ?
  9. The wife and i had them on our 2007 v-star 1100. She just loved the heck out of them. They are the only thing she misses on the rsv.
  10. I have my policy with progressive. I was in an accident in pheonix city, al. 07/13/07. My premium was $53.00 monthly. After the accident the prmium did not increase. At the time i had a v-star 1100. Progressive fixed the bike and 02/08/08 i traded the bike in on an 08 r.s.v. And my premium went to $103.00 a month. I had to exempt my uninsured motorist portion to get the premium to $80.50 a month. That is still too much. You can bet that when a 3 year period is over that i am going to find another provider.
  11. I make sure that i cover my radio controler with a plastic bag. I have not had any problems. Just beware of those darn black widow spiders on the under side of the bike.
  12. i would love to ride more. However, i am a deputy sheriff and work 12 hour shifts. 3 days on 2 days off 2 days on and 3 days off. I ride as much as i can. The bike doesn't just sit. I use it to run to town and grocery shop and commute to pensacola and back as well as participate in benefit rides. The bike gets used often.
  13. i thought of that also. I sprayed the patio squares that i park my bike on and the carolina carport that i park under. I don't know if there are any granule or powders that are effective on spiders. If so i will try that also. I even thought of moving the patio squares and just parking on the dirt.
  14. my bike generaly does not sit idle more than 3 days without me riding it.
  15. Has anyone had a problem with spiders nesting under the saddle bags fenders and farings etc. On their royal star ventures? On 8/22/08 while cleaning my bike I found a large black widdow under the right saddle bag. I went to the store on 8/23/08 and purchased a can of spider spray and sprayed every where I saw a webb. 4 more large black widiws and their very tiny offspring came out of thier hiding places to die. Does any one have a solutin to this problem? I had went to my local dealer and asked if they thought that spider spray would harm the finish ? However, I am deathly afraid of spiders and sprayed the areas anyway. The spray did not seem to hurt the paint.
