  1. While reinstalling the diaphrams today I noticed something odd. On carb #3, (right front) the brass round piece that the diaphram needle goes into was protruding about 3/8" out of the carb throat wall. On the other three carbs it was flush with the carb throat walls. Could this be a factor in the poor gas mileage problem and why. See Pics attached.

  2. Just read through threads about flushing my radiator. What I couldn't find was any answers on if you can use a radiator flush cleaner first before refilling. I have seen where water is used to flush several times before filling with a coolant for aluminum engines. What about a cleaning type radiator flush ?
  3. Greetings! I am starting preps to get the wife ready for Riding Season. My first big ride is going to be from Halifax down to Rolling Thunder, then points South. I don't think my '08 Venture has ever had a coolant flush, and I am thinking about all that slow riding in the parade and lots of stopping in the warm Wx. What is the easiest method to do it myself?
  4. I have a 2006 RSV. In the last day I have used my vacum pump to flush my rear brake and clutch and now getting ready to flush out my front brakes. Does it matter what caliper I flush first? Any thoughts/tips/suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
  5. The poo list (edited for I hope a PG rating) *** Warning *** This page contains a butt-load of scatological humor. If you don't think feces can be funny stop reading here. Now that you're bursting with curiosity read on... POO LIST !!! ------------------------ THE GHOST POO - The kind where you feel poo come out, see poo on the toilet paper, but there's no poo in the bowl. THE CLEAN POO - The kind where you feel poo come out, see poo in the bowl, but there's no poo on the toilet paper. THE WET POO - You wipe your ass fifty times and it still feels unwiped. So you end up putting toilet paper between your ass and your underwear so you don't ruin them with those dreadful skid marks. THE SECOND WAVE POO - This poo happens when you've finished, your pants are up to your knees, and you suddenly realize you have to poo some more. THE BRAIN HEMORRHAGE THROUGH YOUR NOSE POO - Also known as "Pop a Vein in your Forehead poo". You have to strain so much to get it out that you turn purple and practically have a stroke. THE CORN POO - No explanation necessary. THE LINCOLN LOG POO - The kind of poo that's so enormous you're afraid to flush it down without first breaking it up into little pieces with the toilet brush. THE NOTORIOUS DRINKER POO - The kind of poo you have the morning after a long night of drinking. It's most noticeable trait is the tread mark left on the bottom of the toilet bowl after you flush. THE "GEE, I REALLY WISH I COULD POO" POO - The kind where you want to poo, but even after straining your guts out, all you can do is sit on the toilet, cramped and farting. THE WET CHEEKS POO - Also known as the "Power Dump". That's the kind that comes out of your ass so fast that your butt cheeks get splashed with the toilet water. THE LIQUID POO - That's the kind where yellowish-brown liquid shoots out of your butt, splashes all over the side of the toilet bowl and, at the same time, chronically burns your tender poop-chute. THE MEXICAN FOOD POO A class all its own. THE CROWD PLEASER - This poo is so intriguing in size and/or appearance that you have to show it to someone before flushing. THE MOOD ENHANCER - This poo occurs after a lengthy period of constipation, thereby allowing you to be your old self again. THE RITUAL - This poo occurs at the same time each day and is accomplished with the aid of a newspaper. THE GUINESS BOOK OF RECORDS POO - A poo so noteworthy it should be recorded for future generations. THE AFTERSHOCK POO - This poo has an odour so powerful than anyone entering the vicinity within the next 7 hours is affected. THE "HONEYMOON'S OVER" POO - This is any poo created in the presence of another person. THE GROANER - A poo so huge it cannot exit without vocal assistance. THE FLOATER - Characterized by its float-ability, this poo has been known to resurface after many flushings. THE RANGER - A poo which refuses to let go. It is usually necessary to engage in a rocking or bouncing motion, but quite often the only solution is to push it away with a small piece of toilet paper. THE PHANTOM POO - This appears in the toilet mysteriously and no one will admit to putting it there. THE PEEK-A-BOO POO Now you see it, now you don't. This poo is playing games with you. Requires patience and muscle control. THE BOMBSHELL A poo that comes as a complete surprise at a time that is either inappropriate to poo (i.e. during lovemaking or a root canal) or you are nowhere near pooting facilities. THE SNAKE CHARMER A long skinny poo which has managed to coil itself into a frightening position - usually harmless. THE OLYMPIC POO - This poo occurs exactly one hour prior to the start of any competitive event in which you are entered and bears a close resemblance to the Drinker's poo. THE BACK-TO-NATURE POO - This poo may be of any variety but is always deposited either in the woods or while hiding behind the passenger side of your car. THE PEBBLES-FROM-HEAVEN POO - An adorable collection of small turds in a cluster, often a gift from God when you actually CAN'T poo. PREMEDITATED POO - Laxative induced. Doesn't count. POOZOPHERENIA - Fear of pooing - can be fatal! ENERGIZER vs DURACELL POO - Also known as a "Still Going" poo. THE POWER DUMP POO - The kind that comes out so fast, you barely get your pants down when you're done. THE LIQUID PLUMBER POO - This kind of poo is so big it plugs up the toilet and it overflows all over the floor. (You should have followed the advice from the Lincoln Log poo.) THE SPINAL TAP POO - The kind of poo that hurts so much coming out, you'd swear it's got to be coming out sideways. THE "I THINK I'M GIVING BIRTH THROUGH MY A$$HOLE" POO - Similar to the Lincoln Log and The Spinal Tap poos. The shape and size of the turd resembles a tall boy beer can. Vacuous air space remains in the rectum for some time afterwords. THE PORRIDGE POO - The type that comes out like toothpaste, and just keeps on coming. You have two choices: (a) flush and keep going, or (b) risk it piling up to your butt while you sit there helpless. THE "I'M GOING TO CHEW MY FOOD BETTER" POO - When the bag of Doritos you ate last night lacerates the insides of your rectum on the way out in the morning. THE "I THINK I'M TURNING INTO A BUNNY" POO - When you drop lots of cute, little round ones that look like marbles and make tiny splashing sounds when they hit the water. THE "WHAT THE HELL DIED IN HERE?" POO - Also sometimes referred to as The Toxic Dump. Of course you don't warn anyone of the poisonous bathroom odor. Instead, you stand innocently near the door and enjoy the show as they run out gagging and gasping for air. THE "I JUST KNOW THERE'S A TURD STILL DANGLING THERE" POO - Where you just sit there patiently and wait for the last cling-on to drop off because if you wipe now, it's going to smear all over the place. The "TURBO-CHARGER" POO - You're sitting there, minding your business, so to speak, thinking everything is normal, and suddenly there is a totally unexpected, yet full and robust passing of wind, followed by more, perfectly normal poo. This typically results in a completely soaked behind. THE FLOCK OF SEAGULLS POO - You drank some very yeasty beer the night before, you're driving along the only stretch of freeway with no service station for the next 50kms, you skid to a halt when you get there, drop your pants on your way in to the trap, and there's an immediate explosion, followed by the realization that there's a new mottled wall-paper on the wall behind the bowl. The THE "PICASSO" POO - the artwork left in the bowl after the flush. THE THE "DEGOBAH BOG" POO - When the poo isn't liquid but makes the water in the toilet murky and bog-like. Often you get the feeling there's a droid-eating monster lurking in there, too. -----------------------------end of poo-------------------------------------
  6. A couple of weeks back, I had the water pump inner seal leaking oil into the cooling system (2008 RSV). No problem...took it to the dealer, and they warrantied the entire repair. The tech told me that he flushed the entire cooling system twice. Thanked them kindly, and rode home (approx 50 miles). I got home and pulled the side panel off to insure the dealer did a good job flushing the cooling system....as I suspected, there appears to be a cream-color sludge in the reservoir. I have used radiator flush in cars to clean and flush a car's cooling system. Should the dealer have used a chemical flush to remove the oil from the cooling system? Seems to me, just filling the cooling system, then draining it (twice) isn't going to remove the oily sludge. Your comments would be greatly appreciated...dealer opens on Tuesday...gonna give them an earful..
  7. After reading through some posts on the problems with the plastic thermostat top , here is my solution. I cut a support washer from a piece of 1/8 plate to fit around the housing. My old top was warped like most of them are and not mating flush with the base. After the washer was put on it is flush all the way around. I feel better about this now. Since I have the motor out its a good time to fix things like that.
  8. Went for a ride this evening seeing how it was/is going to be the few left this year before I depart somewhere southward. I noticed my leg getting warm and smelled something funny. low and behold anti freeze! temp gauge went sky high so I pulled over under some lights waited for it to cool down I pulled the radiator cap off and found white goop inside in the 25 years + or driving I never saw one like this. Is there special anti-freeze in this or what????? So I put in some 50/50 about half a gallon and rode home now to tear apart and flush. Can I run prestone super flush thru this bike???
  9. Today on the way to work I had a problem shifting gears. This afternoon when I put the bike in gear it would creep forward and stall unless I kept therevs up. I knew it was a problem with the clutch. I went to the nearest bike shop and added some DOT 3 fluid to the clutch system but the problem didn't go away. So now after struggling to get home on crazy traffic and reading the service manual i know I need to bleed the clutch. So How do I do that? I should also flush the system as what is in there looked nasty. What is the best way to do the flush and bleed the lines? I appreciate and and all help I can get on this.
  10. Is DOT 5 an option for the 2ndG RSV? It is time to flush the brakes.
  11. I'm putting new plugs in prior to riding tomorrow. With some valve cover seepage I have a little oil on the seats and the right rear plug has collected grime. How do I get this out?? Not being able to see in there, can I flush it with WD40 or straight gas?? Would it do harm if it disappears in the cylinder? Other options?? Thanks!
  12. Is this. Its off the ladder on my boat. I got a longer ladder and need to replace 4 of these. You can see it sits flush on one side cause the ladder folds up and lays over it.
