  1. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=29737&highlight=Fuse+Block Here is a thread with some ideas post 13 is mine and is what I have used on all my RSV's. It's a buss 6 position and can be bought at any autopart store.
  2. Electrosport anything is JUNK! I went through a nightmare with my old '99 from putting an electrosport Regulator/Rectifier on it. My bike was down for a month trying to get answers from them. I ended up putting a new factory Yamaha back on and didn't have any troubles with it. I posted my findings and displeasure with dealing with Electrosport, take their junk off and go back to stock....sorry, off rant
  3. Are you stirring the pot Allan could it have been one of the conversations we had when we were at the house
  4. I couldn't agree more, but I wont host it again there as I was so busy working I didn't get to ride at all. There was so much we wanted to do there, but didn't have the time. It just doesn't have to be there either, we could go south towards Colorado Springs. Someone else will have to step up to the plate though
  5. Glad to hear about the old '86, it was/is a great bike, Lonna and I put quite a few miles on it. Your in some of the best riding this country has to offer, enjoy yourself and be safe
  6. Were ready anytime you folks are Randy! Just get down here and we'll take care of the rest!
  7. I'm here for you bro besides it's only hot outside, we can always go into the A/C house The door is always open....year round
  8. Hey Buddy! Just wanted to know how difficult it was to get the Ford out, damn that soft ground. I hear it had to be removed by a 4wd....could you shed a little light on the details for me buddy
  9. I'll host one if you fellas want to come down to Texas
  10. Good question Dave? perhaps he really IS loosing his mind

    Brakes

    FWIW....I have tried several different brake mfgrs with different materials. The best I have used is the EBC HH pads, both 1st and 2nd gen. If they would have made a set for my '79 Electraglide I would have them on it too
  13. It pivots to twist with the bike as the bike leans.
  14. Your ears must be ringing all the time my friend, as we have been talking about you a lot. I can't tell you how glad I am to see you on the board posting again. Like we have mentioned if you need anything, please tell us. Theres a lot of folks in this Houston area that would drop whatever they are doing to help you out. I'll try to get a call into you in the next few days. Keep up the fight brother, were here for you
  15. Cool Beans Bro!!
  16. Good to see you pop in here Ben, make sure that you are remunerated fully for everything you have, are and will go through in the future....Enjoy your vacation
  17. OK that make a bit more sense to me now. If the are are 2 butterflys then yes they need to be synced. Is there a parts breakdown list on Suzukis website like Yamaha where you can get part #'s. You could look at an exploded view of the fuel bodies and see from there.
  18. Rick, There is a few things that aren't adding up to me here with your statements. If you inquiring about your RSV, then there are 2 things here you need to know. #1 It's a V4 not a V twin #2 It's not FI on any RSV's there are 4 carbs on ALL RSV's so yes you definitely need to sync them. If what I have said has made things a bit clearer, then I would invest in a Carbtune synchroniser tool. It will sync carb from 2 to 4 carburetors, I have done inline twins, V twins, triples and 4 carbs with mine. Here is a link to purchase one directly from the mfgr.... http://www.carbtune.com/carbrevw.html I bought one from Sean Morgan 2 years ago and it was the best investment I have made. I'd wager that I have used it on 100 different motorcycles.
  19. Been following his ride on facebook, actually bought one of his coins to keep him going. Great message and it's good to see some folks actually have PASSION out there for a good cause.

  21. We've had Hummingbird feeders up for years, they are neat little critters and we enjoy sitting and watching them
  22. Evan, Which style did you put on? I see a whole bunch of choices on the website.
  23. Here's a link to it on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Yamaha-XVZ1200-Yamaha-Venture-Royale-1983-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem4aa2b82ed8QQitemZ320557559512QQptZUSQ5fmotorcycles Bob, If you want to get ahold of me and send me some pics of it I can put it on our board also.
  24. Rick, Why dont you get ahold of Leadwolf56 and see if he'll let you ship it to his house. You can buy it and have it shipped there? If thats not an option, due to payment issues I could buy it with my paypal and ship it to Kevin. Let us know and we can more than likely make it happen.
  25. MMMMMMMMM Venison
