  4. Thanks for the update Don. Glad to hear you guys made it safely. Have a good time! Thomas
  5. I've been doing the same. Been driving around Kitchener in this cold wet miserable weather and hoping that the Southern Ontario group made it ok. Someone needs to get on here and tell us that they made it safely. Please. Thomas
  6. BOOOOO BRIAN!! Moderator? Please move this thread to the "Bar Joke" discussion.

  8. Way back when, I did the four brush starter mod on my '85. Completely cured the "I don't wanna start" syndrome in the bike. Never a problem since. Just sayin'. Thomas
  9. I'm out for a spin yesterday and lovin' the warm weather and country back roads. And I notice this happening a few times during the ride. Starting out from an intersection, turning right or left, clear road (no sand, gravel, road kill) the rear tire slips its grip. Just a little, but noticeable. I'm not what you would call a hard rider. You won't find me scrapping pegs on turns. So I'm thinking because I don't use the outside edge of the tire except maybe on turns from intersections, the grip is lost due to lack of use. My question is: Would it be a good idea to rough up the outside edge of the tire with sand paper to get the rubber to grip better? Has anyone tried this or had experience with it? I just figure that it sounds logical. Of course, I watched the Leafs this year. Don't know why. Thomas
  10. I won't be attending this year. Fridays are a hard day to skip off work. Thomas
  11. THAT WAS FANTASTIC!!! Thomas
  12. Does anyone have a pic of the collector installed? Thomas
  13. Let's examine this. We need some more info. What make was the bike? Was it a Venture? If so, what gen was the bike? Colour? Any distinguishable marks that could help narrow this search? Answers people, we need answers!
  14. Bob, check your email. Thomas
  15. lolololololololololololol catch my breath lolololololololololololol
  16. I agree. I have one very big beef about that thermostat housing. It is potentially exposed to road debris like, oh I don't know, rocks! And the friggin' thing is made of plastic! Again I ask, what were they thinking??!! Thomas
  17. I'm definitely in!! Mark me down for a set. Thomas
  18. I ride an '85 and I bought it from a dealer 6 or 7 years ago. I knew nothing about the bike, issues, or history. All I knew was I was comfortable on it during the test ride, and it had options I was looking for. Radio, fairing, trunk, side bags, air conditioning.... I have invested time and money into my Venture Royale and I have to say it's the best purchase I've ever made. Never a regret and it only gets better with every ride. Loving life on my Venture! Thomas
  19. Jeez Louise!
  20. Our thoughts are with you! Thomas & Nancy
  21. Here's another place to look up info on your Venture. Type in your vin and see what you get. http://www.motoverse.com/tools/vin/yamaha.asp Thomas
