My anti-dive sucked up the voltage. Since I had installed progressives, I disconnected them and the drain went away. It sucks your power for as long as you hold the front brakes on.

My anti-dives are disconnected. I disconnected them when I also put in the progressive springs. I pulled the seat last night and found one of the connections near the regulator apparently wasn't making good contact-female apparently wasn't fitting male part tightly and had arced to point it was totally black and pitted and had melted the contact. I replaced it and now it is back to normal. I made sure the parts were mating tight this time.

I installed a new lithium battery yesterday and I now believe my started motor grounding upgrade is working. So far no difficulty with hot starts. I was having a lot of trouble after the starter rewire and could not understand why. I even purchased a four brush starter. My lld battery was definetly the cause since it was actually leaking. I have never seen a batter fail like that.

I just grabbed one for my 83.

 

Made seller an offer at a couple bucks off to help deal with exchange rates and he took it.

Nope only zero left now :) Got the last one for 12.95 and shipping. I was thinking as I was reading. And it dawned on me that when I had the center chrome cover off of my 1986 to turn the engine over to do the valves I did NOT have to do anything with a wire slinger in order to put on a socket!!

You needn't have bought it for your 1986. The stator cooling kit mod was only required on 1983 and 1984 Ventures. All subsequent Ventures had the "kit" installed at the factory.

The wire slinger is not visible until the rotor bolt is removed. The slinger is inserted into the bolt from the inside end of the bolt.
