I really like the front wheel setup on your 99 as well

Weren't the rubber tubes that hold the carbs on the motor smaller in diameter? So you'd put ones on from a 99 or newer, probably modify that airbox, and maybe jet the carbs? Just my guess

Hate the idea of the lower 1st though! If my tranny ever craps out I'll probably do the 2nd gen swap, but I remember hitting the rev limiter a couple times on my 99

Sorry to hear that brother. Its tough when any member of the family passes. Regardless of species. Keep your head up friend!

Might as well have the Warden install some online poker while she's at it

Thank Ya Cimmer! I'm going to order the kit from Skydoc with the friction discs. I figure its 30 years old, I might as well

Good call! I'm sure I can return it if it wont work

Its definitely hard to argue with @cowpuc on these bikes. He has more miles on them than an average person gets in a life time! Like I said, No big deal if I have to, but if I can find it, great!

In human words its the cruise control cable.. If I absolutely cant find one I'll just lube this one up and itll be fine, but I snapped a throttle cable so I figure why not replace everything while I'm in there!

See I thought it was the Starter Cable too. But I actually think that cable goes to the choke. I think that's the part to the choke on the second picture as well

Any idea guys?

Going to be doing the Barnett Clutch upgrade and went off of the information on the read only section. Heres a link to that http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?491-Barnett-Clutch-Installation My I cant find the un-notched friction plate. Also they retaining wire can be thrown away am I right??

Hey guys! Whats the part number for the vacuum actuator cable. Ive got the other 4 throttle cables figured out, just not the vacuum actuator's. Thanks!

Thanks Marcarl! I didnt know that there wasnt an adjustment on the cruise control, but to be honest i dont think ive ever even seen the unit on a first gen lol. Ill be picking up some Fluid Film this week and ill try to tackle this project. Thanks again for the wise words!

Just a really loose throttle. I haven't measured the freeplay but its well over spec. I know to make gross throttle adjustment at the carb and the fine tuning at the throttle. The cruise is a little laggy so i'd like to check the adjustment there to see . Should probably lube the cables too

Thanks so much! Now I've got an idea where to start peeling things apart.

That's a good idea. I'll have to get ahold of them!

I could be totally wrong here, I am learning and have never even pulled one apart. I think he's talking about on the other side of the board. In the first photo you have when you were asking about the direction of the diode the board looks slightly damaged there.

Basically what happened was I was in a hurry and had the wire hanging out of the cassette lid and instead of ejecting the tape and putting it in the fairing pocket I just threw the cord in the lid and took off quick. It was kind of an emergency situation (had food in the smoker that needed to be taken out and wrapped) and I rode the bike a few times after that. I turned the radio on the other day and it wouldn't come on and I looked in the cassette deck and lo and behold it ate the wire and I cant for the life of me get the cassette out. I was thinking about grabbing it with needlenose pliers and ripping it out. Then I decided now would be the perfect time to get Bluetooth on the bike and turn the cassette deck into a phone holder.

So I could actually run the edset thing in line by the amp like the first adapter I posted and just run a Bluetooth receiver into it. I rarely use the intercoms in my helmets
