Same thing. Just easier to adjust as riding conditions change. Gary

83-85 (MKI) clutchs are the Barnett style with 6 helical springs. 86-93 (MKII) are a diagphram style spring. Clutch cover is different. There are a lot of differences from MKI to MKII 1200 - 1300 motor Saddlebags & trunk totally different Headlight Brakes Carbs - mainly venturi size Mufflers This is a few of the main differences Gary

I'm confused
dingy replied to Saddle_Bag's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Actually, it is in the normal position at about 5 on the clock & in bypass at 11 on the clock. I don't think either is really 'OFF'. Note some conversion may be needed if your clock is your cell phone. Gary -
What are you doing ???? Selling parts off the trike ??? Must be worse than we've been told !!! Gary

CHF is Congestive Heart Failure for those that don't know. Had to Google it myself. Gary -
If you are talking about the ones that are for draining the bowl when you open the screw on the carb body, It really don't need to be there as long as you remember if you check the float level it ain't there. I am missing on of mine, and it is going to stay MIA, cause I can't reach in there with the Vboost on it. These are very small rubber tubes that exit on each side of the carb rack. Nothing is going to come out of there unless the drain screw is opened up. If you are talking about the over flow tube that runs out the back of the bike, you should have it on there. Gary

Never have thought much of places that offer price matching. Sort of says well charge you more, unless you catch us. I would rather buy it from the place that gives the lower price up front. Gary

TCI Problems
dingy replied to Dragonslayer's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
TPS stands for Throttle Position Sensor. IAP is Air Pressure. In the settings for the new V88 TCI, there is the choice between TPS or IAP. The IAP was an added feature of the V88 unit. It is a possible source of the dropout issue. The Ventures in stock form all use Air Pressure sensor to indicate the demand on the motor which is used as part of the RPM advance . The Ignitech TCI's TPS settings can be set up to utilize this input. Besides the TCI that I sent, there was a map sensor in the package. The adapter cable had a 3 pin connector on it that will connect to the MAP sensor. The vacuum port on the new MAP sensor needs to be connected to the carb intake boot in place of the existing hose that is on the #2 carb. Picture attached of MAP sensor sent. If you have not installed this new MAP sensor, that would lead to less than optimal performance. The existing vacuum sensor on the bike is not connected to the new TCI, in the form I sent it to you.

Shift indicator switch
dingy replied to Trader's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
I would think that is all you will need. Pin & spring. It wouldn't be a bad idea to also order a screw, 98707-05016-00, just in case original is pain getting out. $1.05 Also get a new O-ring for existing switch. 93210-29196-00 $2.45 This is in electrical 2 tab. Gary -
Need help with a couple of parts...............
dingy replied to DragonRider's topic in Watering Hole
Only place I can think of on bike that has a provision for eyelet terminals is the ACCY block on the stock glass tube style fuse block. Which would then agree with Rockets thought that it was across the battery positive & negative. Gary -
That will qualify you for a ticket. Gary

Part #'s you need for the 83 are; (from partshark in the Shift Cam Fork tab) point, neutral 4UN-18542-00-00 $2.22 spring, compression 90501-06022-00 $1.88 These are the same for all the 1st gens, since you have parts that were not stock on an 83. Gary -
No picture, which by text I am thinking you meant to attach. Gary

We all need to slow down when we get old, and a 2nd Gen is the perfect, logical step in that direction. Gary

TCI Problems
dingy replied to Dragonslayer's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Here is a link to the cable. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=690719&CatId=447 I have got over a thousand miles on my TCI & Mike Mercury's and it has not had the drop out that was reported. I can send out a file to load that will swap from the IAP setting to the TPS setting. A cable is needed to do this. I did experience it at 1st, 3 times within a couple of miles. I replaced the pickup coil connector & changed over to the TPS settings. I have a TPS adapter Bkuhr made up I am going to try soon. Just been very busy this spring. Gary -
Starter is on front of motor towards left side sightly, up under front header pipes. Also clean the ground to the block on the right front side where the negative cable is attached. Slightly forward of water pump. This is in addition to cleaning starter main wire. And check that 2 starter bolts are snug. Starter is on right side center of attached picture. Gary
