It is good to get out with some of the gang isn't it Good to hear that you folks had a nice ride. I haven't been able to get out for better than a week with a bad back...that sucks
-
Very nice to see Cindy, I'm glad that the silver lining is starting to show itself for you folks. The phone is still on should you need it, only good thoughts for the family
-
I couldn't agree with you more Scott, it will be interesting to see what they come up with. I would think they better be very fast about it as I'm sure many folks that waited to see what the RSV was going to be for '09 are disappointed and will go looking elsewhere, this could be the bike
-
Not crazy about the front fairing, but they definitely have lots more amenities than the RSV. I'm not a huge Vtwin fan but if Yamaha doesn't have a new platformed RSV by next year, I can see many going to this or the Ultra.

Sorry Brother, I will give NOBODY that kind of control of me
-
I agree Gerry, and thats not necessarily a bad thing, we are so close to this country going under it isn't even funny. I love my bike, but hated paying that much money for it
-
My new one was 9.99 % I plan on opening up an account at a local Credit union and refinancing it at 7%. The draw you in deal that dealerships offer is for Bill Gates, I have VERY good credit and I couldn't get the LOW rate they offered. So I'll just let someone thats interested in working with me make some money.

We have had a pretty good week here with the donations, the total thus far is.... $2470.00 Just remember that the largest donation will get to come on the site and tell everyone what our Tattoos will be. Right now Bummer has donated the most money towards this, so if we meet the goal he will be able to post what were getting. It's looking like it will be right down to the wire with it But I know that we can make it, every little bit helps and as always Thank you to all the folks that have donated
-
I have recieved both of your donations, Thank you very much On a very good note, we had a big surge in the past couple of days an have added over $500 to the total, which now stands at $2420.26 We are less than $600 away from the goal and I am very happy to hear that. Keep 'em coming and I will give updates as they come...Thank you to all that have donated so generously

I think this will be a last minute commitment for many Lew. It is what it is, dont sweat it, those that are planning on it will be there....it's all about the donation and not the number that give it. Your doing a great job my friend and we owe you a great appreciation for grabbing the bull by the horns
-
Good to hear that the site has helped you like it has, thats what it was designed for. BTW Welcome to the club
-
Thanks for the update and keeping us in the loop Jo

The 80H load rating is 992 lbs and that is the one that should be got if it's available in the style of tire you want.

Have a good time Chuck

Lewis, I had a call from a member yesterday and he was wondering the exact location. Do you have an address that can be mapquested or programmed into a GPS for the masses
-
Lew, I dont think that arm twisting will help, we'll get what we can, it's in a higher powers hands. I appreciate everyone keeping the threads up top, but I'm not going to beg folks. Those that can and want to donate will, it's all voluntary and to be honest, I'm happy that we have done this good thus far. More would obviously be better, but what we have is better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick Again Thank You to all that have donated for this cause
-
Nice to hear of the Avons, welcome to the club that knows
-
Good looking scoot, hopefully Yamaha will pull their heads out and redesign a bike with some of the amenities that the H/D has upgraded to and that we want Now you can join the Touring Hogs website

engine shuts down
Squidley replied to thumper1's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
When you pull the cap off is it difficult to pry it off the tank and sound like a vaccume seal when pull it off? If so then you have a vent problem with the cap, not an uncommon problem, I have had it happen to me several times. -
Get ahold of Honda and tell them your story, I know they are very picky on who they have as dealers. Perhaps this is a sign that your not supposed to be on a Honda
-
I wanna be just like you!!!
-
Depress the starter button and see how much voltage is at the starter, sounds like you might need to redo the starter. See if you can find one of the 4 brush Vmax starters and you wont have a problem again.

Prices for older 2nd gens
Squidley replied to keithert's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
For a '99 that is in very good shape, with lower miles, decent market value would be around $7K but not really any higher. Like mentioned about $1K for an additional year newer.
