Stopped on Aug. 1, 1990. Missed it for about 2 years. But did it because I wanted too. Since the rest of my family smokes, it makes the holidays a real "thrill"

A used 1963 Honda 90, followed one year later by a brand new 1971 Honda CB175. Next came a Honda CB400T in 1983. Out of biking for about 10 years and than purchased a Suzuki C50T Boulevard, than moved up to the Yamaha Royal Star Venture in 2008. It has been a really fun journey. I hope the ride continues for a really long time.

Both of my trailers have motorcycle 5 wire plugs (separate brake and turn signal), so the Modulite won't do. I'll go look up the Rivco page.

What are you all using for wiring connections for towing? McHitch has a two piece circuit but it costs around $100. There has to be a better way. Any suggestions???

What difference does winter make... you mean like having to put the bike up for the winter? What does rotating the tubes entail? Besides undoing everything I have already done. Next time around it will be easy. I did remove the handlebars to add air. Very inaccurate pressure tool in the tool kit. Got it right to just below 10 on my regular pressure gauge. Seems to be okay, even though the manual says no more than 7 psi.

Lowered the front end 1 inch using tech step by step instructions. (Those need to be better with photos) Now I can't add air to the front suspension because handle bars are touching the air ports. Any ideas besides removing the handlebars to add air?

OIL?????? Whats Best???? What to use???
MikeyJ replied to Duke13's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I just completed my 600 mile oil change and went with Mobil 1 Synthetic 0-30W. Has anyone else used anything other than YamahaLube, or Amsoil, or Rotella?
