I just wanted to say thank you to Larry for the lift adapter. This may be an old story but I just purchased the adapter a month or so ago and it is the most practical tool I have encountered in a long time. For those of us who have to store their bikes over the winter this will be put to good use. For now I use it even when I am just cleaning up the bike. Everything is so much easier with it off the ground. Larry, thanks Again, great piece of craftsmanship!

That should be around the time I will be heading through there as well. I will be in touch as it get's closer to see if there is an opportunity to meet up!! Have a great ride \ time at the IR & Sturgis

1 week today I head out for San Diego CA. I am starting off to Vancouver for a quick visit with my son. From there it will be south through Seattle then over to the coastal hi-way and down to San Diego. I will meet up with my wife and granddaughter to spend a few days at SeaWorld & the Zoo then the return trip includes the Grand Canyon & Yellowstone National Park. I will be taking this trip solo so I would like to extend an open invite to any member who would like to join me on any leg of this journey or for a coffee along the way. I will be updating my route as I go and hope to meet many of you as I pass through. Bernie

I have checked of that I would like to be on the contact list and filled in the details. As I am not on the attached list I was wondering if |I missed a step? Please advise.

The bike has aftermarket slip on's. All connections seem solid, definitely nothing loose to the touch. The in the AIS from previous owner all appear pretty secure as well. I will have to try the choke idea and see where that takes me. Off to work for now, thanks for the suggestions.

I purchased (private sale) my 2003 RSMV this spring 38,000 km (24,000 miles) on it, had it serviced prior to taking it out. The exhaust popping has been there right from the start (primarily when decelerating but it happened for the first time today when I started it). I have been reading the threads on this issue and have done what has been suggested. The AIS was removed (previous owner), installed a baron tachometer (thanks Freebird, your thread outlining how to install this was bang on), bought a carb tune so I could check the sync and all is good. Went back to the dealer asked if they had any suggestions and he told me to use this fuel additive to clean the carbs \ jets. I got the impression he did not see this as a major issue. I did as he suggested abd the popping persists. Is it a major issue or is it just an annoyance. Does anyone have any other suggestion I could try to eliminate the popping? A friend said the valves might need adjusting?
