    Thanks! So these manuals, the 83-85 is the 1200cc, is the second manual an addition to the first one that takes up the 1300 engine? I'm downloading now so I can see if the CLASS works. How low can an 83 go, seat height wise? That $1200 one might be cool. . .

    And a couple more, cuz we all love pictures! http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5265/5641031072_49a7e139a7.jpg Does it lean too much on the kickstand? http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5143/5641036150_6a33700039.jpg I think I am going to get the other seat. I can try the shaving thing (did that on a tall scooter I had, so I've done it in the past) so he has two seats. Thanks! Ginny

    Okay, rain stopped and Tom is riding to work this morning. Tried the CLASS system but can't seem to get anything to happen. I'm not sure if it's working at all, there is nothing on the screen when buttons get pushed. So, how does it work? Is there something else that needs to be touched to turn it on? Do these go bad often? Is there a relay or fuse that may be blown? Where do I start? Thanks a lot. I know I ask 20 questions. . . AND, is there a CLYMER or BENTLEY or CHILTON for this model? Haven't found one except on CD and hate CD manuals. There is an '83non-Royale in my area for $1200, too bad these are so tall and heavy. My Honda Shadow 750 is 550 pounds and I am not comfy enough on that to go all the way up to 750 pounds. Sharp bike. Thanks a lot for all the help!

    Tom loves them on his other bikes and would love to have one on the Venture. I did some searching but didn't find one for 86-93s. And yeah, he's got smaller feet. . . Thanks for any help, Ginny in Denver-ish

    It's the Royale, I've got the CB, I'll have Tom look for the. . .oh, he just told me he saw the buttons and will try it tomorrow. Thanks! If that doesn't get the adjustment he needs, I will try the seat shaving. Thanks so much for the help! Ginny in Denver-ish

    No idea about the pressure in the shocks, haven't owned it 24 hours yet. Can't get the husband off it. Drove it home in the rain last night and rode it to work in the AM today. So, having never done this, how does one find out the pressure, what is high, what is low and how do I reduce pressure in the shocks? He won't have anyone else on the bike for at least 500 miles, so I can lower the pressure for a single rider for now. What is the lowest pressure a single rider can go? Can I use a stock seat for scooping, or is there not that much padding in the seat to start with? Corbins are 25% of what we paid for the scoot! If I can find a stock seat in decent condition, can I scoop out a stock? Thanks! Ginny in Denver-ish

    Pretty amazing. As a former cyclist, I can attest to his feat. That was inspiring, thank you for sharing.

    Our new 86 is a bit tall. Not dangerously tall, Tom is not quite flat footed, but the weight makes it a bit scary if the rider can't stand over the bike and have complete control. Is there a way to bring down the rear of the bike by say 2 inches? Thanks! Ginny in Denver-ish

    New here, will add more photos when he stops riding it long enough to take more pictures! http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5261/5634591907_648b2b0173.jpg Not perfect, but 43K miles and runs perfect. Already laid it down gently in the driveway this morning and he was able to pick it up easy, no damage. It's got some scrapes already so he didn't feel like a moron. Glad I wasn't there to laugh at him, LOL!!!!
