  1. I have noticed a rattle in two of my speakers one in back and one in front both on the right side. Still have warranty left so should be covered right. Also cassette quit this past weekend had to dig the tape out. Is it worth having the dealer replace the speakers or are there better replacement speakers out there. Can't decide on whether to have the tape deck replaced or not my late 70's early 80's collection showing a lil age. My dealer told me that clarion was the one to warranty repairs on the radio and you kind of get what you get on replacement he mentioned refurbished control as an example. What should i expect from my dealer. Has this been an issue for anyone like to have my guns loaded when i take it in if i need them.
  2. Thanks everyone The vstar became painful after a tank of fuel on the venture we have already made a trip to Eureka Springs up the Pig Trail around town next day an then to Springfield Ms. an back to Eureka Springs the following day and back home the next. Mostly took our time all weekend we were tired after we got home in the rain but overall a great first trip. Was really surprised how dry we stayed with no rain gear. Did a round trip to Ft. Worth one Sat. about 400 miles the heat was miserable think i got wetter on that trip. That is probably the furthest we have been in one day but we took about a six hour break at my sisters checking out my brother in-laws 69 ss elcamino. Was kind of thinking about trying for Nashville the first day 532 miles according to yahoo maps an 8 hrs is that a reasonable travel time on a bike I would have thought it might take a bit longer.
  3. No dumb questions right so what is seafoam an whats it for
  4. We are planning around the 16th of October. 500 sounds like a reasonable distance I was thinking a lil further the first day to get us closer to our destination and maybe taking a little more time there and on the way home.
  5. hello everyone taking a test ride here my name is Vincent Owen i live in sw Ar. finally got another bike after many years 07RSMV replacing a Vstar 1100 kids are gone an were ready to try our first long distance trip to eastern Tenn. It was suggested that i post questions here about any suggestions on making our trip pleasant. We have seven days to travel an limited space as you all are aware of. Just wondering whats a reasonable distance to travel a day and not be wore out I know that will vary from person to person. Suggestions on packing etc. Also any great reasonable places to stay in the Gatlinburg an Pigeon Forge area. Anything a newbie tourer might need to know. Experience is the best teacher but often has the hardest lessons
