I really wanted the Valk interstate but Rose was not comfortable and if mama is not happy no one is happy. Rod

Yep slides in better. Rod

I hit the leading edge with a file to knock off the sharp edge of the splines. Not much just took the sharp corner off the front. Rod

I am not sure what is going on with your bike. I teach the ERC and practice a lot on my MM Venture and have not had a problem with the clutch glazing or overheating. Are you sure you don't have air in the system or other problems? Feel free to email me if you want to discuss off list. Rod

Got a lawyer and a call from the insurance late in the day with BS excuses. Looking like a long recovery. Thanks Rod

Help, I was hit on 6-28-2010 and the responsible party's insurance has not done any thing yet. The claim agent is Andrea Doolittle from Portland Or, working for Chartis Ins who took over fron AIG. The home office is Chartis PO box 25588 Shawnee Mission Kansas 66225. the phone is 1-800-242-2923 ex 2515 the claim # is 684322712. I have done my best with my insurance to get anything from them. My medical bills are coming in and I have no insurance other than the San Diego VA. I do not want to take the Dr time from the Veterans in need. Could I get your help contacting the company till they respond? Thank you Rod Fleming Spring Valley Ca

I used liquid wrench on mine (99 Ranger) and had no problem. Make sure to keep the wrench square and tight on the plug. Good luck Rod

I normally teach the ERC on my MM Venture, it was a challenge getting it right. I taught an ERC on Fri but had to use the Virago because my right shoulder is all tore up from the accident. If you are interested in doing a course check with the local MSF and get on the list. Most places will hold a class when they have enough students interested. Rod

http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/first-aid-heat-exhaustion/FA00020 Here is a link to first aid info. I allways carry lots of water and in the summer I have cool scarfs and vest in a plastic bag on the bike. I have been riding and had friends get over heated. Wetting them down works good to bring the core temp down. We freeze water bottles so have cold water all day. Rod

Rod - When you say clean the pistons, do mean the outside of the piston or the top of the piston that seats to the BACK () of the pad? Both actualy, make sure everything is smooth with no ruff spots and lube the back of the pad. Rod

Make sure your pistons are clean and put some brake pad grease on the back of the pads. Good luck Rod

Lubing Shift Linkage Ball Joints

I spray it clean with WD 40 type oil then use a drop of 3 in 1 oil. Rod -
You can glue it from the inside. I got hit and it cracked across the bottom and after gluing has been good for years and many miles. Good luck Rod

This qualifies as don't believe what you see on the net. Be skeptical, question all you read. Rod

There is a reason that they have a "kill switch" tether. Rod from San Diego where the test/race those things.

Well coming home from work yesterday at 4:15 I got t boned in my truck. The guy hit me hard enough to put me on two wheels. I have a 1995 Chev Z71 full sized 4 wheel drive, he has a full size van. I feel like ... umm well like I got hit by a truck this morning but not hurt too bad. For some reason the CHP did not waant me to get near the guy that hit me so I have to get the report to get the insurance for him. I have to go to the tow lot to get my tools out of the truck this morning; more $ in tools than the truck is worth. He came frome a side street and I never saw him till he hit me. Be careful out there Rod

Good luck on the move. We are going to miss you here. It was nice riding with you. Rod

Make sure to look for distortion on the sides of the bags. My wife over stuffed the bag and I had to have some one press hard on the latch while I squeezed the sides from various spots to get it open. If cutting is necessary the hinge pins would be my choice. Good luck Rod

Thanks for the replies. The pics look like it is in very good condition with 46,000 mi. Not a Royal but looks very nice in the pics with all the luggage. Rod

I use a cheap gym bag. It is light weight and we put our rain gear and clothes we layer up and other light weight items in it. The small pockets are good for sun screen flashlight and other small stuff we need on the road. Rod
