  1. Hey guys, does anybody know a source besides the dealer for the Phillips head screws on the upper fairing under the false tank cover. I have tried several hardware stores and all they could give me was a hex head and longer. Thanks 84 VR 120k brought back from the dead.
  2. Regardless I have closed door on the idea. My new stock sized kendras are on their way at this point. 84 VR 120k brought back from the dead.
  3. This is the guy that has constant wood from the seat and is attemping to sue BMW..... I guess the next time we are at the BMW dealer there will the viagra warning that if it lasts more than four hours see you physician..... 84 VR 120k brought back from the dead.
  4. Just to be clear the rear was staying oem size, the front after looking further would have went down to a 130/90/18. The reason I thought itight work are some threads that are irrelevent to the first gen ventures. 84 VR 120k brought back from the dead.
  5. I was looking at buying current bike and found you guys on search engine. Glad I did. 84 VR 120k brought back from the dead.

  7. Well, I see the difference, I will continue to look and see... I just hate passing on a good deal.. lol
  8. I searched but could not find anything that was first gen related. Can get a steal on a set of tires the rear is the stock 240/90/16 The front that is what I have the question on is a front that is a mt 90b 18 or 130/90-16 Now i have read of these being used on the RSV's with success and the riders liking them but i have heard nothing from the First Gen crowd. Any thoughts or experiences are appreciated. Bags
  9. Marine vinyl 1.5 yards if you don't make any errors its just enough. Yeah we took the old one and made a template, used a leather needle on my great grandmas ancient machine and legitimate upholstery thread from a local shop. And siliconed the seams on inside of the cover to help with any water. It turned out good but not perfect. I think it will last a good bit. Thanks 84 VR 120k brought back from the dead.

  11. It was a pain in the rump, the old seat as my son said " It smells like its got 28 years worth of fart dust in it" when we tore the old torn one off. Progress , continuing progress. 84 VR 120k brought back from the dead.

Fronts, po had not tightened the caliper hoses completely and I know I'm going to have to change contaminated pads and bleed. All this in the first 40 miles.......
