  1. I went to take a ride on the 84 Venture and it I couldnt get it to roll the rear brake peddle is hard to push and does not want to come back up all of the way. If I take and pull the pedal back up I can turn the tire when its up on the center stand. I only have to pull the pedal back up maybe a 1/4 of an inch. If I adjust it to take the free play out the rear tire is locked up. Can this be from the pads being wore down and the calipers have went out to far and wont come back in as they would with new pads. I am going to put pads in and bleed some fluid off and see if this helps. Hope that someone has a cure for this one, if not I will tell you what I find out. Orlin
  2. I had the same problem on my 84 I trimed the plug wires back a 1/4 of an inch and got fire back to the plugs.

  17. Good to see you can come Ken and Jeff, Jeff if you can get them to come bring them on up. Going to need help drinking that ice cold keg of beer. I have a plan in mind for a rock cooker and smoker, I hauled myself in 6 yards of nice quarry rock to build one up by the house and one down at the campground. Bill said he would be here with his grill so we can have some of those great burgers and brats. I figured I havent herd much about working on the bikes so its riding,eating food drinking some beer around a fire and B,sing I am thinking sounds like fun. That seat is nice the wife really likes it.

  20. I just hate days like these, sounds like when my pressure tank decided to spring a leak in Febuary a few years ago, Went to town and the guy tells me that I need a special tank and that it will be over $700.00 I come home with out the tank make a call to Lacrosse this guy says I have one on the truck I will meet you half way for $20.00 and the price of the tank is $250.00 I told him what the guy in Viroqua told me for their price and he tells me that he supplys the one in Viroqua with the tanks but he will no longer. Good luck on the part hope you get a fair price. Orlin
  21. Here is what I am thinking would like to get in a ride on Friday for those that would like to go can stop some where and eat or cookout here after the ride, Satarday work on cycles if we have enough time get in another ride. Then I have a hind quarter of Venison that I will be cooking along with burgers and brats for Satarday evening and then the bonfire at dark. After having Bills cooking at the Leaf Lookers ride we can put him in charge of the burgers and the brats. We have plenty of camping room there will be clean porta poties and and a place to shower. There are places in Viroqua to stay and there is the Blakley Hobbit just down the road from here nice cabin but you may want to give her a call ahead of time to see if she has it booked for the weekend. Orlin
  22. It should be a good time, I have been told I put on a good bonfire, and could use some of that fertilizer for the corn ground. We can have a grill going to put those trout on. Orlin
  23. I have not been to a Maintenace Day so I am wanting to know what kind of Maintenace is done that will give me a idea of the tools to have on hand, Thanks Orlin
