Glad to hear that you got them on, enjoy the "new" ride
-
I guess a good idea would be to hop on the bike and head to areas that you think might be appealing. It's a 2 fold solution actually, you get to see 1st hand the area you might want to be in and you get to ride to do it
-
Right on! That is a very cool ride y'all had, we have been that way many times. I like the story telling of your adventure, made me feel like we did the trip with you all in a short way. George is a trip, so is Mary K, we have been fortunate enough to have spent time with them on a couple occasions, very cool folks to say the least. Looking forward to a time in the future where we can finally meet up with you folks

You do have a very valid point there Paul....I stand corrected
-
Just sent PP for 2 and will order some more when I get more sheckles in it Thanks again for all you do my friend
-
Good to hear your home in 1 piece bud, those pics are familiar as we have been on that part of the BRPW and the other one looks like Helen GA. Hope to see you folks next Saturday for the Michigan M&E

Ron, Here's a post that should answer all your questions http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=20815&highlight=Narrow+front+tire

Have fun and stay out of trouble....we all know how YOU are
-
I'll take it...PM sent!
-
Can I help you with another order Bud? We could always start another thread for another order. If you want a hand let me know and I'll run the gauntlet for you
-
Perhaps we can get with Don and see about ordering more bells. I know that I would like to pick up another half dozen as I gave many out....and ended up with 4 of them

Brian, Totally my bad man, I know better than to come onto the site all hyper at work. I dont take any offence to it and apologise for coming on that strong. I'm usually all about water off a ducks back, but I do agree that it's all about making it your own and being different than everyone else. Anyone that knows me, knows that I am all about being different
-
Hard to say, either way, I would find it hard to believe that Yamaha would make a claim about the RSV unless thet were doing it purposely to boost interest in perhaps the redesigned 3rd gen But who knows, Mfgrs have done way dumber things for no apparent reason. I couldn't see Yamaha without a touring bike....but I'm just a dumb welder
-
The only reason I have H/D lights on my bike is because the French rings wont fit on anything else. I like that look and thats why I have H/D lights on my bike and not factory Yamaha.

Lurker coming out into the open, tech question............
Squidley replied to a topic in General Tech Talk
It can be a bear to get it all full of fluid again, I have done those many times. Make sure that your bleeding from the bleeder up by the steering head too as the brakes are linked. Persistance is the key to doing it, I also use the Valvoline Synthetic blend for DOT 3 & 4 -
Glenn, The lights themselves will work on the Yamaha bar, I have a set with H/D turn signals and lights. You would have to go with the Yamaha bar thougth unless your going to do some custom fabricating.

There might still be hope for him Bill Never say never Dan, people thought that I wouldn't but I did
-
You seriously scored on that one, great deal
-
Loaded question there Froggie, to me in great shape no more than $2K. I think what it is would be the gas prices and now everyone is trying to buy a bike to save fuel costs. So they are driving the market value up. I believe that once many of these folks buy one and realise they are in over their heads the price will come back down.....but I'm just a dumb welder
-
Mick, I haven't used one but I have talked with quite a few folks that have and I haven't heard anything terrible about them. They are custom fitted to you and even though they look a bit different, they seem to keep their owners happy
-
Nice job Ruffy
-
Good to have you with us, we do like pics so everyone will be bugging you for them If you have any questions feel free to ask, there are no dumb questions here. Enjoy the site and stop in often
-
Buddy, Dont drive yourself into the ground trying to get it all done...we'll help drive you down ourselves Thank you for all the effort your putting into this, it's much appreciated.
-
Now thats funny!

Vic, You dont know how bad we want to do that, only thing holding us back is money and time We will make it back out there for another one of the VW's, I never have a bad time with you folks
