BTW, if you do get to move to the deep south, be aware that there are two terms of endearment we use for y'all; 1. a Yankee - Someone from the north that comes to visit and goes back. 2. a Damn Yankee - Someone from the north that MOVES down here!!! :stickpoke: :crackup::crackup: All joking aside come on DOWN!!!

Along these lines, is anyone using Google's Chrome?

:sign yeah that: Never-Never-NEVER Open the freon can to the high side with the compressor running!!! Doing that will presurize the can enough that it will EXPLODE . ideally when working properly the low side will pull down to 25-35 (positive)psi, so like some have mentioned you may have to put the freon can into hot water to encourage the "stuff" outa the can.

I found the 404 WWW front tire at M/C Superstore with the, at that time, 10% discount it was $98.00 with free shipping. Yeah, it is a PITA to keep clean, but an occasional shot of Westley's Bleach White and a rinse with a hose keeps it really clean as long as the bike is in motion

Front wheel bearings are gone

Sometimes the new one will drop right in place after lounging in dry ice for about an hour. Just don't let it bounce. -
U BAD Boss!!! :rotfl::rotfl:

But is there a spring inside the valve body behind that square shaft? may even be a leaf type spring that in conjunction with hydraulic pressure furnishes "feedback" to the handle.

Could you not get oil @ Wally World, Filters at Advanced Auto/AutoZone/O'Reilly and tires from Motorcycle Super Store?

Is there a break down on the control valve(s)?
-
Just a shot in the dark:scratchchin:, but are the control levers connected directly to the spool in the control valve? :think:Or, does the lever push on a spring that then moves the spool? If the latter is the case, maybe the spring has broken.

Mustang Royal Star seat for a Venture?
wes0778 replied to YamaDuck's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
Not sure about other years, but my 1998 RSTC seat has a tab the slips into a slot close to the fuel tank. Then there is a tab on the rear of the seat that points straight down. That tab snaps into a latch which locks the seat in place. To get the seat off takes the ignition key to unlock the rear latch. -

That my friend is a truly lovely bike!!! except maybe for those really ugly leather bags on the back:innocent:, you should remove them immediately and mail them to me....:stickpoke::crackup: Really you done GOOD!!!! Welcome aboard:thumbsup2: -
I guess after 11 years, what ever friction material holding the mirrors on my RSTC is starting to give up. I constantly have to readjust them. Short of super glue or duct tape has anyone come up with a way to tighten up the swivel joint between the back of the mirror and the mounting arm?

Best I remember the Pure1 filter at Advanced Auto was a little less than $7.00US. Got the blue bottle Rotella at Wally World, don't remember the price, but cheaper than Advanced Auto.

Burgman? SilverWing?

Yup! http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=96349 Don't go for the Heavier $70.00 one as from what I hear if you do you'll have to let the air out of a 150 tire to get it out...
