Just bought hitch,higher backrest & ignition power box from fib 78 . Fits great and looks great!. Hope to be able to use it this week to see how the new bike pulls my trailer. Hope backrest helps wife's back and sore legs or if not yet we will hopefully be going back to a Venture(1st OR 2nd) not sure but won't be this year.Have to wait and see how the economy gets and how mine and the wife's jobs hold out.

This weekend I discovered the rubber gourmet had wore out and let the screw pull through. The battery cover (or fake gas tank cover) flipped up and hit me in the face. This is Not a good thing going down the highway at 75 mph. Luckily I caught mine and got stopped with no danage. Make sure you check this and add a washer to prevent this from happening to you. I added a dime size washer tio mine to keep it down at high speeds..... Here the pics. 1 pic is the rubber gourmet 2 pic is the washer added to the screw 3 pic is everything put together. 4 pic is closer shot of everything.

I purchased a Morgan Carbtune last year. Great tool! I used to have to do my XS1100 often but was using a set of mercury gages. If someone needs help locally to sync their carbs maybe I can help. I've done mine a couple of times without a tach but I'll be ordering one soon so as not to be guessing at proper rpms. Dave Irwin, PA

Hello everyone, I am new here. My name is Amy, and I own a 2007 RSTD, and my hubby (Jerry) owns a 2008 RSTD. I am only 5'1" and hubby is 6'7". I need to lower my bike. I have already lowered my rear end, and am going to be lowering my front. I need to know if there is any new side stands I can order or if I need to have mine modified. Also if I need to modify how much should be taken off? I would appreciate any help I can get. Thank you. Amy -
Does anybody have a horn cover laying around that will fit my 89? A needy person helped themselves to one of mine while the bike was parked this weekend.

I just saw what the guy on ebay sold the last set of his diaphragms ( you know the ones he can only get one set at a time) for $147.00 . all i can say is someone wanted them pretty bad to pay that price when you can get them for $89.00 from sci at reg. price. i will wait until there back in stock and get mine at the venturerider price . I just can't belive people don't know that they are paying two to three times what it cost new.

Hello everybody, The weather here in Pa. seems to be colder longer that I'd like it to be. However, my question is, how many of you who live in a cold climate, start your bike up once or twice a month and let it warm up? Is this ok to do? I don't have a battery tender on it so I have been starting it up every once in a while. Buddy of mine says it will rust my pipes from the condensation. He suggests I leave it alone, that I might be doing more harm that good. I'm talking about an 08 Venture. What do you guys think? Thanks

There was a member who contacted me last week from the west maybe from Mn or ? about my bike. He said he would be in I believe Livonia Mi. in a couple of weeks and wanted to see my bike. He was going to buy a 2009 RSV but thought of mine since it was so low on miles. Could that person give me a call again 1-734-512-3526 Thanks Joe

How do I find out what number Venture my bike was in the production line of the MM Venture model. Sorry for the ignorance but now that I see everyone posting their number, it makes me question what number mine is.. Thanks -
I had a chance to ride with another Venture today that was identical to mine but with MANY more toys on it. So, I got to see what mine would look like with lots of toys. He had aftermarket pipes on it that sounded pretty good. He said they are Sampson slipons but didn't remember the model of the pipes. He said he bought them because he wanted Fishtails. I really liked them because they weren't overly loud, but had a nice tone to them. I thought I would ask opinions on a couple of forums about Sampson. Do any of you have experience with them - good or bad? How is their quality? craigr

Whats with all the name changes? Is the law closing in on our members or what. Is this a sign of the economic down turn where people are trying hide from bill collectors? If this keeps up I won't know who anybody is. Maybe I need to change my name to keep up with the jones's. Maybe I need to change mine from redneck to that damn redneck.

I think something is screwy with the membership counter, mine has been reading the same number now for a couple of days, and when I was talking about how many members, others stated that theirs were over the 6000 mark, mine reads 5,976, below is what it reads today. What gives..... Mini Stats 5,976 0 Members Entries 18,933 0 Threads Reviews 180,340 17 Posts Polls 0 0 Content Files 51 0 Links Ads
