Is this going to be a new source of spam?

 

Got this in my email this morning.

 

Anyone recognize it?

:2cents:It's a document hosting site, not sure why you would get e-mail unless you subscribed or someone used your e-mail to do so.

Could you have uploaded it awhile back and the activity is someone else downloading it? I searched the member list and it looks like he is a trail member.

I don't know anything about it. Your email address is not listed here unless you have posted it in a thread somewhere. It is not listed in your profile.

 

I have sent Luke a private message to see if he knows anything about it. I don't see how you would be getting emails if it's his account.

I am Luke. I really don't know how this was sent or why.

LChapel, welcome to the site. what bike do you ride? do you have more than one scooter? How did you wind up with your motorcycle, tell us the story.

Thanks for the welcome. Sorry for the way it started out.

 

Anyway, I just got a 1983 venture with 35,000 miles. Set in a barn for five years .bad brakes, leaking fork seals, non running engine, but I'm in love!

 

So far the I have installed a set of Vmax carbs, rejetted of course and it now purrs like a kitten. I installed new fork seals to stop the left fork from leaking. The rear/left front linked braking master cylinder was corroded to the point that it could not be salvaged. I removed the rear master cylinder and made a bracket to install a rear master cylinder off a 1992 Vmax. Now it only works the rear brake. used the rear Vmax brake line to connect the left front to the right front caliper. now the front hand brake operates both front calipers. Removed the anti dive actuators for the time being to ease the work load of the master cylinder for now. Rode it around the block for the first time today, 9/28/10.

 

I am a Vmax junkie. I have a 2003, 1997, and 1992 Vmax. I like to do long Iron butt rides and wanted something with a fairing and windshield. Nothing but a mighty yamaha V4 will do for me, so that is how I came to own the Venture.

Squeeze in Germany and a couple others own Vmaxes as well as Ventures.

 

Sounds like you have a good stable.
