  1. I met Ron in Bancroft today at a planning meeting for some renovations that need doing there. I rode my bike the 5 hrs return He owns an 86 VR and was asking if I might know why his cruise control did'nt work. I asked if he could start the bike while NOT in neutral...he said "no" so I suggested it could be his clutch switch...or possibly his sidestand switch. I also suggested he check out this site for MUCH better technical assistance than I could ever provide. So Ron....if you read this WELCOME....there are a few threads with titles like "is this site worth the $12".. read some of them and decide for yourself. The folks here are a pretty decent bunch...relatively speaking!
  2. Some of the best ideas seem to pop up during casual conversations. This one, raised between the salt-shot-and lime is no exception. More often than not when talking about service received from a dealership it is to complain about the quality of service, the cost of the service or the lack of service. However, every now and then, someone takes the effort to identify a dealer who goes out of their way to provide exceptional service. It was suggested that whenever such a dealer is identified that a thank you letter be sent to the dealer from the Venture Riders thanking them for their service to one of our members. Letters of compliment mean a lot to dealerships, the service managers, and the respecive technicians. So, whenever anyone has an exceptional experience with a dealership or any other service provider, if they will send me a PM providing the name/address of the dealership, the names of the parties involved, and the date of the service, I will generate a letter from the Venture Riders thanking them for the service provided to one of our members. And if memory serves me correctly, this was suggested by Erv and Teri (Pakidaho) somewhere between the home brewed beer and the Taquila...
  3. I'm beginning to plan our next big ride for next summer. We're planning to make our way to Eugene OR and take 5 or 6 days to ride along the coast to Monterey CA. Does anyone have any suggested routes or must see places that we shouldn't miss. We'll probably travel in July. Thanks, Dennis
  4. I'm thinking of adding a radiator cover to the bike. I thought I saw a black one online somewhere but can't seem to locate the website again. Does anyone know what that is, or is chrome the suggested fit. Also, doesn't air flow become impeded by adding one?
  5. Will a large C clamp work for a bead breaker for the front tire? I don't have a truck bumper to jack against like was suggested in another thread. RR

    Venturers

    I just tried to go on the Venturers site and my McAfee software flagged it as a "Known Attack Site" and suggested blocking it...... So what's up with that???? Anyone know??
  7. Can you believe it during dinner at Marcarls Venture in, Wizard (Wayne) and 1 canuck (Brenda and Brian) and I got into a short talk about My wife never going out on the Bike with me. Well her ears must have been burning because today she suggested going for a ride on the bike and we were out for great 4 hr cruise and she loved it. She is now looking forward to going again and already rhyming of places she would like to go. It only took me 32 years to get her there but patiance has prevailed.:dancefool:
  8. Sent you a PM a but as far as I can tell doesn't look like you have read it yet so I thought I would try this instead. I while back I posted a message about flag pole holders for my trunk rack. Someone suggested I contact you to see if you have any more. One would do, but really looking for 3. Please let me know if you have any and if you would be willing to sell them. Thanks Jerry.
  9. Saw this last night. Outstanding movie. If you don't have a tear in your eye by the end of this, you have no heart. It makes you wonder, does the public really know what's happening as was suggested in the movie? :thumbsup2::thumbsup2:

    Tune Up Question.

    I wanted to ask the sage and wise members of this web site what I should ask for in a tune up for my 2006 Venture? I will have the dealer perform this task for me. While in the shop since I have factory tires still on the bike what would be the suggested brand and size recommended? Thanks in advance for all the information you can provide. Sincerly, Mark:hurts:
  11. Am looking to purchase some sort of textile riding jacket that has lots of vents for air flow and matching textile pants. Any suggested retailers? many do not seem to offer pants in the...shall we say...more "robust" sizes!

    Thanks for the tip!

    I was changing my oil last night, getting ready for the fair weather rider's riding season. Since this was the first time I had done this myself (on my bike) I thought I might find a few quirks to sort out, but I have a big fat manual for the bike so I wasn't worried about it. But then when I went to reinstall the oil filter cover, the new O-ring, which had been stuffed into the box like a wadded up kleenex, wouldn't stay put long enough for me to tighten the bolt. Four or five tries at that and I was really frustrated. So I logged into the VR chat room and asked for suggestions. Someone jokingly suggested peanut butter. Then another suggested wheel bearing grease. There it is, I thought. A much better idea than the form-a-gasket goop I was considering, which might have resulted in an oil leak anyway. But at 11:30 at night when you are tired and have already spent 35 minutes on a 10 minute job and are frustrated an can't think straight, sometimes those brilliant ideas just won't come to you on their own. I forgot the names of the guys in the chat room, but if you happen to read this, thanks again. P.S. I also tried the idea of bearing grease on bread with grape jelly, but I now think that peanut butter is the better choice for that particular application.
  13. Just wanted to say thanks to all that replyed regarding my question about relocation of the passenger headset plug in. I just received my extension ( which I got for $2.96 plus shipping) that someone suggested. Works like a charm! You guys are the best! SlimJim in Texarkana, Texas
  14. Hi, Headlight on 83 VR used to work ....both high and low beam, stopped working on high this fall , therefore high beam warning lite stays on.... I'm assuming switch on left handlebar might be bad... Not the greatest light beam now..., but I am going to look at painting inside of headlight cover as suggested and I'm replacing driving lights soon too... Still a well functioning high beam would be nice... Anyone had to replace switch???? Running wires as well as choke cable look interesting ..... Clay
