    Decided to pull the ads out of classifieds because i got tired of the 10 trips to get shipping prices and people don't get back to you . I will just scrap the parts .
  8. Been a diabetic for 40 yrs and it is not the end of the world . Take insulin 5 times a day , eat healthy ,exercise 1 hour a day , and in great shape . Take care of yourself , your the only one who can . Good luck !
  9. installing a Dakota digital speed recalibration unit and need to know witch wire on the bike speed sensor is power , ground , signal . according to the book it looks like the black blue wire should be ground . im at a loss on the others . 2008 venture . thanks
  10. Any one have one of the flip windshield ? If so do you like it , is it flimsy in the wind when it is open ?
  11. putting together a tri wing trike and wondering about tires . if the backs are radials should the front be also ? what weight rating should the front be , and is there any difference on rotation , wondering about rain grooves being backwards in back tire vs front
  12. Where can I purchase some carb and Twinkie covers
  13. Been a diabetic for years and didn't take care of it , wound up in the hospital with a heart attack at 53 . Diabetes leads to a number of things , eye sight , kidney problems , heart problems , and the worst numbness in your feet . I take insulin 4 times a day , brought my a1c from 14 down to 5.9 . Exercise on a tread mill and lift weights 1 hr a day, 7 days a week . Theirs a pasta out there called Dream fields that limits amount of carbs that stay in your system and it really works . And it's good tasteing . make sure you eat smaller meals and healthy snack in between . Living is a lot better than dying so be sure to take care of yourself . If you or any other member want to talk about this let me know .

  17. At the dealers they jumped it with the pliers and it turned over but no clicking when you turn over with key . Just headlight relay clicks . They put in a new solenoid did same thing . Also dims all lites when you try to start , thats why they think it a ground
  18. Wondering if any one can point me in the right direction ? Last winter put ignition bypass and headlight bypass on 08 venture . One night the bike wouldn't start so i checked all my wiring and connections , everything good but headlight relay just clicked and bike did nothing . Got messing around with main fuse and it started right up . Been starting ever sence . 3 week ago i took it to the dealer to fix the crusie , went to pick it up and wouldn't start , same thing . They changed fuse selinod and nothing . Goinig to pick it up this week cause cant figure it out , they say everything checked out on there end , my relay is working like its supposed to, no ground at selinod but if you jump across it starts . They think its a ground problem but i don't think they have the g2 to figure it out . Any idea's
  19. When i fixed my front fairing witch is abs i got some fiberglass screening and applyed it with abs cement . Bondo over and painted . Really strong
  20. GOOSE , CALL ME STUPID ( YOU WONT BE THE FIRST ) BUT I CANT FIND THE TECH LIBRARY AND WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT YOU RECOMMEND FOR A FUEL PUMP . THANKS:confused24:
  21. Been working on the bike all winter , finally got her back together today . My boy two toned the lower fairing , side covers , and air boxes this weekend . The fairing was broke so i fixed that and glassed in the knee blokers , sent the seat out and had it covered to match bike , wired all the relays , trailer converter , and new fuse box in trunk under diamond plate . Made traier hitch and trailer . Ps . White bike was old stand by when this was all going on .
  22. Looking for a set of rsv tank badges and tank bib , got an old retro gas tank mailbox and we are painting lower fairing next week and thought we would do the mail box to match . Willing to purchase both , dont have to be premo . Thanks
  23. Let me take it to a couple of locals to see how much it would cost to make . Couldn't make any more by hand , took forever to make that one , hoping they can mold it cheap using mine as a pattern , will let you how i make out .
  24. If i had enought interest i would take it to see if i could get it molded . The carbon fiber cost $45 at a local shop and he can dip about any pattern . If not enought interest (pm) me and i have some pictures of the process , pain in the neck . Thanks for your interest
