Heel - Toe shifter has to go!
bmxndad replied to Owen's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
Has anyone ever straightened out the toe side of the shifter? Move it in towards the engine. It seems like it would clear up some room on the floorboard for setting the foot. Doing this might make it hard to get your toe on it. By the way, I always use both the heel and the toe.- 60 replies

If you did not repack the pipes, you may want to consider doing so. I repacked mine and I liked the sound much better. Repacking material can easily be found on ebay. -
Get a copy of the Lake Superior Travel guide. It has a great 16"X 22" pull out map and a ton of detailed info for anybody doing the circle tour. Go to: www.lakesuperior.com to order the guide. There may be a charge, but it is well worth it.

Was underneath the bike today and noticed my bell is gone. Key ring it was mounted with is still there though. Looks like the bell rubbed off a lot on the key ring. Does the pewter ring wear through? I like to have my bell swinging free. I am wondering if it needs to be installed so that it doesn't swing? Ross

If this is your biggest worry the Venture might not be the best fit for you. These bikes can be a handful especially at low speeds.

I agree the permatex is good stuff. Repaired trunk cracks '99 RSV with it yesterday.

I used the putty type (Permatex) on my trunk repair yesterday. Easily found it at Wal Mart. I am pleased with the results, it stays where you put it and no messy mixing. Very hard when dries. I have a '99 RSV and apparently the trunk mod was not done. I was getting a bunch of cracking working out from the rear mounting holes. I put thick rubber washers on both sides and used longer bolts. Should be good for a while.

Lots of nice roads in Arkansas. In Northern part, hard to pick a bad road. If you see signs like this you are on the right road. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2292/2279651479_c557dbee4a.jpg?v=0

Glock couldn't run at speed on the dry tires. I respect him more for slowing down and staying in one piece. Better than wrecking in front of guys running for a championship.
