Kurt827 has had a very bad run of luck. After laying down his bike down earlier this year, he has been very sick recently. We just got word that Kurt has been in the hospital for about a month. He had the flu. Then was still complaining. Put him in the hospital find his galbladder needed to be removed. Then still problems and more testing showed problem with his pancreas problems. He has been a very sick man. I managed to get him on the phone today. He is home as of yesterday and hopefully on the mend. He is weak being down so long. Thought everyone would be interested in his wellbeing. If anyone is interested in sending get well card, let me know and can get you address.

I have been following this thread to see what you come up with because my 88VR has been getting around 28 or 30 mpg US solo 70 mph freeway, the 83 Venture standard I had got 40 to 45 (riding style changes, changed mileage) had considered getting a colortune but with your experience I will wait, I did however check my air jets yesterday and found an emulsion tube was loose, completely loose so off they came fixed that and checked sync which was way off, guess that tube had been loose for a while, if wind ain't up today will check mileage again. with your gas prices you need my sons nighthawk 250 which get 77 to 80 mpg (with him on it, 100 pounds) lol. will let you know what I find. -
