  1. If your starter button is not returning all the way out your headlight will not come on. It does sound like more of a different electrical issue though. I'm sure more info from the Venture gurus here will be coming along... Good luck on the repair.
  2. I heard it was loaded and on it's way to Big Tom's house... so sad..
  3. Thank you for the clarification. Photos and related nightmares were not necessary .
  4. Or MarCarl is selling women's underwear to make a few buck... The question is .."was it new or slightly used ? :shock3:" Hey just asking.......
  5. My Arizona registration for my 89 was $23.08 plus $25.00 for my Special Freedom plate.
  6. Thank you sir ! All done now. Just need to get the battery back in and see how she runs.
  7. I finally have some time to put the new diaphragms on the 87. The diaphragm installation and the new spacer on the needle went fast, just want to know if I should: 1) Use any lock tight on the outside housing screws on the cap? 2) Use any sealer around the metal cap that goes over the diaphragm ? Seems like the diaphragm is it's own seal(er) but though I would ask before I put it all back together.
  8. Golf and Venture and Recovery is doing something along these lines: Here is the thread: http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=70504
  9. One thing about the KLR's is that the tire pressure makes a big difference on the dirt or gravel. Lower pressures will give you much better traction and get rid of the marbles on ice feeling. I loved my KLR650. Only sold it to get my 87 Venture for my son to ride. Play with the pressures and your ride will be much more enjoyable.
  10. Need to save, for what reason I do not know, the POND MONSTERS !
  11. I got $12.53 cents worth of entertainment from this thread alone... Looks like I'm ahead some more...
  12. From what I can tell, from extensive hospitalization and great medical care, and after careful consideration, Brian does not have, or has not suffered any type of TBI ( Traumatic Brain Injury) that would lead him to the decision of replacing his bike with a 2nd Gen. Looks like a complete 1st Gen type recovery is the prognoses.
  13. Isn't that exactly what Sandusky would say ??? :shock3:
  14. Isn't it more comfortable to fall off when it is cool than hot ? Just asking........
  15. I will try to get over to the bikes tomorrow to look. I have to finish a 3 1/2 hour online certification for a DSS Certification. When I finish that I can ride the heat wave over to the bikes.
  16. Why not... I have already been beat up with the "ITS" ....lol P.S. Brian...don't you like...I mean love, the way we have hijacked your thread ??
  17. Bags.. I have 2 84 parts bikes if you need something let me know.
  18. So an 84 relay would work on an 89 ?
  19. There are all sorts of unit looking things on my two 84 parts bikes. If I knew 1) if an 84 would work, 2) where it is located and 3) what it looks like I would be happy to send you one.
  20. Hey.. I was just trying to be nice and not get voted off the island....
  21. We got your back !! Just ask and the wagons are circled !!!
  22. Yea...what he said ! My "not listening" resulted in metal parts being installed. They must be 2nd Gen parts since I have not had to do any maintenance work on them. Oh crap... did I type that out loud ..???
  23. Heck ya ! And look... us 1st Genners actually got along with (most of ) the 2nd Genners... Hope they are enjoying the cool snowy weather in Hades....
  24. The vests that The Marshall and i have work with frozen inserts. See Picts below. Mine also works as a cooling vest when soaked in water. The material, not beads like those neck coolers, absorbs the water and lasts for several hours. The frozen cooling packs also re-freeze in ice water. They don't need to be "frozen" Just submerged in ice water. The head cooler is like the neck coolers but cover your head under the helmet. I haven't tried mine yet...maybe today.. should be interesting....and probably causes a real bad hair day.
