  1. Have you had your carb's synchronized lately. Maybe causing it? Keith
  2. So if you have a 12V pump and you remove the cig plug and just put clips on it do you need to put a fuse in one of the lines ? Keith
  3. Sorry for delay I just came across the posting You can get it here....search on mud flap http://www.renaissancecycleleather.com/search.asp Keith
  4. You may want to consider putting a flap on the front to avoid any rocks sneaking back and hitting your grill !! Keith
  5. Reiny Thanks for the clarification on the shirts.......I was going to wait till the rally to get additional shirts......gonna need some clean ones for ride home!!! Order sent off for shirts and patch's. Keith
  6. I have registered and am planning to pick up a couple more shirts at the rally as well as a patch etc.........Would you rather have a commitment before then ? Keith
  7. Canadian Prices $22,499 - 2008 Royal Star Venture S $21,899 - 2008 Royal Star Venture Big difference in pricing !! Keith
  8. With only $50-$60 in parts that's a lot of labor.......I'd ask some more questions! Keith
  9. I brought mine in for the first service only and it was around $200. I'm not sorry for doing it as it gave me peace of mind that they did the first service. At least if something came up in the future I had something to go back to them with. Since the first I have done my own work without any problems. I guess it all depends on the dealer that you are dealing with. I had a warranty issue and I overheard the new Service Manager asking the owner if they were going to do it or not....the comment from the owner was only if it was someone that deals with them and has had service work done there......so I try to keep on the good side of them in case I do have any issues down the road and support them when ever feasible. Keith
  10. I find that the site is loading slower for me....not real slow but slower than before. Why is it that there will be 48 members signed in and 173 guests ? I've noticed the guest number is aways considerably higher than the members....is this an accurate count? Is it actually guests or is it something else that maybe causing a strain on the server? Don't get me wrong not making an issue of guests....just a thought! Keith
  11. I find that the Allen head wrenches are always a little loose so I use a piece of heavy plastic over the tip of the wrench and that snugs it up on the screw. So far no stripped heads. Keith
  12. I have the Hopnel Bib as well and I attached the wire clip from the tank to the side of it with a couple of rivets and a elastic to keep it from rubbing on the tank.....see pic's Keith
  13. I just came across these armrests on the Cruiser Customizing site....bit pricey and not sure about the mounting but they say they fit a lot of bikes including the Venture. http://www.cruisercustomizing.com/detail.cfm?model_ID=42&Category_ID=0&manufacturer_ID=6&product_ID=27701&sblid_name=Custom_World_International_Passenger_Armrest_for______in__Custom_World_Backrest__for_Yamaha_Royal_Star_Venture_ Keith

    Speed

    I was having problems earlier today as well......I can get to the main page but could not open any of the forums. No problems on other sites at all or with my internet speed. (49 Members - 179 Guests)
  15. Someone posted these numbers awhile ago just for the knobs 4xy-88157-00 for the passenger cb push to talk button 4xy-88137-00 for the passenger volume control knob I had mine replaced last year and they replaced the whole unit.....not very well either...took a second trip to the shop to tuck the wires up inside instead of hanging down on the fender. I guess it took a few replacements before Yamaha decided to just replace the knobs and the tech did say that Yamaha weren't going to replace them any more. Keith
  16. Torque Specs for Dog Bones.... Keith
  17. Al Just make sure you check the PTT button from time to time or Loctite it.....mine disappeared on a short trip one day so it may have been loose for awhile. Keith
  18. Thanks Brian....that looks like it could be useful' Keith
  19. You can download the owner and service manuals at this link. May be of use in the future. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1828 I have the parts catalog here as well that I could E Mail to you....unless someone knows of a link for it . Keith
  20. Mine is removable as well....it has a plastic clip and you just turn the pouch 90 deg and it comes off. Keith
  21. I picked up a pair of Black rubber gloves (dish washing type) and a pair of cotton liners. Total cost less than $2.00....work great and I won't be upset if I lose them! Keith
  22. You can get a unit called Speedohealer........go to search (top of page) and type in speedohealer and you will see a bunch of posts on it Have a look at this link http://www.healtech-electronics.com/ http://www.xtsportbikeaccessories.com/page/page/5698303.htm
  23. See pic...hope this helps !
  24. Don I was able to get as far as the Pay-Pal paying option but there wasn't anyway of putting a note on there so you would know what it was for or who it was from other than the E Mail Address used with PP. Unless there is a connection between the site and user name being tagged some how. And if its anonymous thats fine as well....just curious. Wouldn't like to see you burdened with more work than you already have been providing to this great site ! Thanks For All That You Do !!! Keith
  25. Don I can see it when reading a post but its not there under search on the main page.
