I spoke with him over the phone for a while this morning. Ordered a set of liners (bags) from him. It didn't seem that anything was out of the ordinary, so I'm sure he's fine. He's an interesting fellow.

Found a nice set of floorboards and shifter for a 99 Royal star....how tough would it be to adapt them to my 88 Venture? I'm pretty good at adapting and fabricating things like that, but with the shifter and brake assemblies, it seems like it'd be a tough job. Anyone out there with enough knowledge of both bikes to offer an opinion? Thanks:banana:

My problem isn't getting it up on the centerstand, but rather getting it back down. It tends to skip across the floor if I try to bump it off the centerstand while sitting on it. I usually have to dismount, then keep my foot on the centerstand footpad to get the bike back down. (Maybe the concrete floor is too smooth, slippery)? In any case, I've not had a problem rocking it up onto the stand....just takes a bit of ummmphhhhh! Best of luck.

How do. I"m a newbie, but so far luvin' my 88 royale. I was given only one key with it, and since it's not the original, I don't have the key code. (Not written down in the manual either). Is there another way to find the key code? ....Can I get duplicates cut at the dealership? Knowing my history with keys, I don't wanna wait too long to get a couple of duplicates. Great site, seems to be a real family of members here. Update: I went to key-men.com and they were able to make duplicates from a scan of the key I have. It's a bit pricey at $13 per key, but I felt it was well worth it for the convenience of simply scanning my key and sending it to them. Thanks everyone for the input!
