    OK you do not have to remove the gas tank to remove the carbs, they fit thru the side once you get them broken loose. While you have them out, also service the intake throats as they can develop holes, and the rubber o ring gaskets underneath can deteriorate. You will also find a lot of buildup on the mating surfaces. Now if you are removing the tank, you will want to remove the rear tire and the rear subframe to get to it better...

    I use their fork oil and waterproof grease, but never tried their oil. Thanks for the input on the difference it made with yours, I may try it some time. I normally use diesel oil 15W45...

    Hey, add a few extra miles on and go around Lake Erie as well! We have a guest room (presently occupied by cases of hardwood for the next couple of weeks) and would love to see you!

    Hi Lenny! You have stumbled on one of the very few downsides of the RSV, they are top heavy and low speed maneuvering is a bit of a bear! As mentioned leveling links help out the situation somewhat, there are am few other tricks out there as well, but I trike'd my RSV a couple of years ago so I forgot them. Welcome aboard!

    $400 was a steal! You will find a complete service manual for your bike here on the site in the tech forums. What exactly are you looking for with the throttle, where to find parts or how to route it?

    15W45 or keep what you are using depending on when you come up...

    But you already own a red one... I personally like the looks of the MM but it looks great red as well!!

    Yes Gary, I found out the benefit is Sunday, not Saturday. I'm leaving MD around 5... Peggy, it's a promise or a threat, depending on what you want it to be...

    No, the mute button is where the volume control and tone control is... EDIT The red button is for setting the push buttons.

    oh Mama, I'm coming alone if you want to get rum balled together...

    Or the dreaded bad ignition switch failure??

    Are you disconnecting the coils from the wiring harness? Is the battery in your meter fresh? I seem to remember something about the test procedure using an old analog meter movement as opposed to a digital movement. Try a different meter as well...

    Ummm, I do have a trailer but it's presently over at Big Tom's right now...

    ...except that I'm bringing the cage to get the pinstriping fixed! I will have the tank installed before the International and it would be nice to do reverse at the same time, should I decide to spend the extra money I really don't have...

    I'm very sorry to hear this! Never met him in person but will in the promised land. Did get to know him a little on the forums. Prayers to friends and family in this tragic time.

    Yah, that was my feelings about the floorboards as well! Do I really have to deal with John?? He's not my favorite Hannigan person...
  24. bongobobny
    I'm a maybe on this. Haven't needed reverse by watching where I park, but I admit it would be nice. Question is $1100 nice?? I will be finally installing my Carbon1 tank soon, so If I order it now it should be here in time...

    Plus, if you ask Dingy real nice, he may send you a CD/DVD full of pictures...
