I think 10mm sockets and wrench have become the ‘Bread and Butter’ of most hardware stores.

I respectfully disagree Don. Riding season is not coming to a close even riders like me and to anyone else in the east coast go through during the winter months. Cold weather riding is my favorite and I hope it is to ‘some’ riders out there as well. I never sweat. 😀. Please don’t get me wrong. I am not saying to anyone to go ahead a ride during the winter months. This is all about the rider’s decision to hang it up for the winter and wait for Spring or if you are like me, I ride during the winter months barring good road conditions free of snow, salt, grime and unsafe debris. I get it…some riders just don’t like cold weather and I understand that completely. However every time I see a rider all geared up and riding at 30° temps, I feel excited and I say to myself…if he is having fun, I can also have fun during the winter months. I am not responding to criticize or belittle anyone or make me look good and sound good. This is just me and I’ve enjoyed cold weather riding ever since. So FWIW, riding in the Spring, Summer, Fall and winter always have all the inherent dangers. It is important to ask yourself, ‘Are you ready to ride or not?’ If the answer is no, please don’t ride. Follow your gut, because Spring is only a few months away after all. With that said and if you have watched ‘Games of Thrones’, it is inevitable that WINTER IS COMING!

You are right. This site was not down at all. It was a browser issue on my home computer that simply needed a to closed and reopened. Sounds like you and your fellow riders had a great time despite the crosswinds and 460 miles is truly satisfying to most riders including myself. Rode today and tomorrow will be a little chilly... must gear up appropriately. Ride safe.

Good evening to all. Glad to be able to access venturerider tonight. I could not login last night and this morning, but looks like everything is back up and running. Rain in the forecast. Ride tomorrow instead.

Happy Friday to you too. TGIF! It has been a long work week since I was called in last weekend. I am crossing my fingers that I don't get called in tomorrow or Sunday. I have lots of things to do around the house.

That sounds a lot of fun! Enjoy the ride and I wish all of you good Fall weather.

Just on top of my head, I think you simply remove the right side cover and there it will be...a small air filter. I have not done it yet and will double check the maintenance manual before I tackle the job. I'll post pics as soon as they are available. No special tools required.

It has been partly cloudy all day today, but it was the perfect day to run errands and commute to and from work. Just like you @Chaharly, I'll be riding to and from work. I just have a couple items to replace on the RSV and SVTC and that would be air filters on both. I am looking at partzilla to order the items. Once again, ride safe to all and most importantly enjoy the ride.

Good morning to all riders. Nice weather all week on my side. I'll be riding all week. Hope you are also having nice weather in your area. Ride Safe.

From their website, it looks like it comes with an L shaped bracket for the RSV and it will fit. I don't have one, but it looks like an easy install. FWIW, it is louder than stock as advertised. If you decide to get one, please post a sound clip when you get the chance.

Great to hear from you. It has been a few months I think, but glad to hear that all is doing great with your young family. May you have more miles to come this year. Fall weather is great for riding for sure. I try to check in almost every day. Ride safe all the time.

Good morning Ventureriders! No ride for me. I'll have to wait until this weather clears out. Enjoy your Thursday.

First day of Fall. Good morning. Looking forward to at least attend one Fall Festival in our area. Ride Safe.

Happy Sunday morning to all! In the garage to do an oil change for my wife and then cut the grass. Great weather today. Ride safe all!

Good morning to all! Hope you are having a good start of the weekend. Today, I'll pickup my iPhone 17 Pro Max at an Apple Store 41 miles away. I am already reserved a time slot this afternoon for pickup and hopefully the wait is not too bad. I heard these iPhones are selling like pancakes. Ride safe.

TGIF to all. Ride safe and enjoy the weekend.

Everyday, there is always something new that comes up in the news. Sounds to me it is a huge network.

@BratmanXj Simple reason. You are having fun!

@RDawson I think you were meant to be a firefighter. God has great plans for you despite the evil things that happened on 09/11/2001. Good always prevails. I too will never forget that day and on the same day, different year...my third child was born on 9/11.

I've never owned a long gun, but all I can say is 'Very Nice'!

Justice is about to be served.

Good morning to all. Today, we remember all the lives that were lost 24 years ago, 09/11/2001. I still remember where I was when this all happened. May God Bless the United States of America.

Good morning to all! Cloudy and seasonal temps., but I'll still ride and dodge the rain clouds . Ride safe.

Impressive for sure. I am curious how his daily route looked like. His stamina appears to be second to none.

Good morning to all. Great weather is in store for us here in SE Pa. Looking like ride days all week. Ride safe.
