SilvrT replied to Sheradan's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Great... can we start with the "smart remarks" now??? ....make sure the vent isn't clogged so that any buildup of gasses can pass from your rearend.- 10 replies

Motorkote comments and tracking??
SilvrT replied to Judes Dude's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
Got the MotorKote in...drove about 15 miles ... seems a bit better... maybe too early to tell. Wasn't able to get it beyond 4th...rush hour traffic too slow. ... mostly 3rd. 2nd and 3rd don't seem to sound much different. Will wait until this weekend when I can take it for a good ride of a couple hundred miles. -
cool .... remember years ago the product MacTac ... just about any pattern in a stick-on roll .... I think I wood-grained everything in those days! LOL

Dipstick for Rearend
SilvrT replied to Sheradan's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
I don't recall having to use a dipstick on my rearend .... in fact, I don't recall ever having a dipstick for or in my rearend... I think ya check it with any old "rear end dipstick" aka a piece of wood and the level should be about 1 inch down from the top (izzat about right boyz?)- 10 replies

No problemo... bring me your scoot.... :rasberry: -
The "bike" mfg's are not in the lubrication business...if they were, we would not have the plethora of over-the-counter "additives" that we do. And I'm not just talking about oil additives.... do you or did you ever put SeaFoam in your gas? (not "you" Curtis ... "you" anyone)

I would suggest that BOTH numbers are important. For the most part, 10w30 or 10w40 is fine just about anywhere, anytime with a couple exceptions... If you live in the north (Canada) and you ride in the winter, use something that starts with 5 If you live in the south (Texas) and you ride in the summer, use something that ends with 50. Simple.

So.... who's gonna be the "brave one" and tear their engine apart to see what it looks like after having MotorKote in it for a couple thousand miles??? :scratchchin: (not me!) -
Seems most of you changed your oil at the same time you added the MotorKote (is that correct)??? My oil is not due to be changed...it's synthetic....and I don't want to fork out the bucks to change it just yet. Has anyone added the MotorKote to the oil that's in the bike without changing it? Would this be ok to do or not recommended??

Here's a couple of REAL bikes... note: they're both BLACK!!

I concur...

SilvrT replied to Judes Dude's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
Dang... all these positive comments... I CAN'T WAIT to get mine!!! Was hoping it would arrive before the weekend...but it didn't. Wouldn't have made any difference, weather is not cooperating...can't go for a ride anyhoo! -
I note that there are 2227 threads in the 1st gen tech talk while there are 1919 threads in the 2nd gen tech talk. I won't speculate on what that is saying....draw your own conclusions...

I just got off the phone with ICBC and according to the operator, the restriction came into effect 1987. Anything prior to that was grandfathered.

Take that hidden surveillance camera with ya ! *snikker* Of course they won't let the public see them... that would open a major can of worms if we "really knew" what goes on in the "back room" :eek:
