  1. Hello everyone. I am looking for a clear headlight lens. Anyone know where I can get one at? Bill
  2. Hey brother nice bike and your right the blue and black is the fastest. To bad that i have to go out of town tomorrow cause this weekend would be a great time to ride. I might be able to come back into town if i do i will give you a ring. again nice bike and congrats. Bill
  3. Yes that was the problem when the dealership installed the passing lamps they didn't do a very good job and placed all the wiring near that block and wouldn't you know it they all got pinched. Just got done rewirring the whole thing and putting on the passing lamp spacer that i got off of here, which that was well worth the money was able to get the faring on without having to dismantle the passing lamps. Should have installed it myslef and done it right the first time..from the guidance and instructions from this site made is so easy........thanks to everyone that helped and all that have posted there insight before........ bill just another bubblehead
  4. Yes your correct it was a fix it ticket. The officer was cool and was a motorcylce rider as well, even though he as giving me a hard time for riding a yamaha he still liked the bike and after i told him what i paid for it he was very impressed since he has a harley and paid twice as much as i did. Since you have the faring off a picture would be awesome and thanks.......Will be in Jax next week for work.
  5. Ok where would the relay be if they did install it and not sure what it would be used for. any help?
  6. I also had a light bar installed at the dealer and now they do not work. To my dismay the headlight stopped illuminating and lucky me this happened while i was out riding and my friendly neighborhood policeman pulled me over to tell me and of course write me a ticket. Got back to the house and started some initial troubleshooting and discovered that they did not do a good job at routing and protecting the wires imagine that. After replacing the fuse for the headlight which now works and allowed me to get the ticket reduced to nothing. Now to tackle the wiring issue which is on the plans for tonight or first thing in the morning since now i am armed with information from here on how to split the faring and also received my space for my light bar. Hopefully I won't have to rewire the damn thing..........SO THE MORAL to this story is if you have this light bar installed at the dealership inspect the wiring as much as you can and make them change or fix what you find. The lessons that we learn!!!!!!!!!! Just another BubbleHead.............here
  7. For this crusty old Senior Chief (well not that old) really appreciates all the help and the funny qoutes. Looks like the dealer is going to have the copluers replaced don't ask me how but he is......will keep all posted on the how.........To the boomer Chief with 20 patrols under my belt know exactly what you mean......lol........
  8. all thank you to all that have replied to my post and have welcomed me to sight. I have found it very helpful..Well i bought the bike back in Sept 08 and from a dealer in southeast ga, the previous owner was a wee bit short and just didn't like the bike and traded it in. He keeped good care of if from what i can tell and thats when i found the rust and the dealer is willing to work with me but we will see. I have been using a product called magic cloth kinda like never dull but it isn't. It polishes and takes the rust off but the couplers are very bad. A clean bike is a happy bike and it keeps the rider happer..............
  9. First of all let me introduce myself. I own a 2007 Venture and live in FL near Cocoa Beach and I am currently active duty NAVY in the submarine force. My questions are: Have any other's had a rust problem on their bikes? Does the warranty cover this issue? On my antennas at the joint where they fold is just covered in rust. After taking the saddle bags and trunks off last week to do a thorough cleaning (field day for you navy folk) on the bike i discovered more rust on the chrome under the trunk and a few spots on the forks. I couldn't find anything on this issue in the warranty info that I have. Thanks for your help Bill
