LED Headlamps/Passing Lamps
Maritimer replied to DONATALIE's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
Thanks. I'll stick to the full LED or HID. BTW, any one has a comparison between LED and HID? Could be interesting to know. -
Headlight Bucket????

Thanks bro. Much appreciated. I have been contemplating getting LED for a while now. I think I'll take the jump and do it. Cheers -

Many complained of the LED headlamp interference with the readio. Any comment on that? -

Rear speaker problems
Maritimer replied to Maritimer's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
The dealer looked at the speaker. It was literally coming apart at the seams. They will replace under warranty. $115 for one Clarion speaker 25 Watt. Next time will be at my own cost, I will replace with better quality and higher wattage. For now though I'll use the warranty. -

UPDATE: The shop owner called me back. Said he had been on the phone with Yamaha HQ and in fact the speakers are covered. However it comes with a BUT.. Covered BUT they don't know if I played my music too loud and blew the speaker, or if the rain got in it and rotted it or if I used too much water etc.... All of the above should be covered IMO. Water fro rain or washing should not affect a waterproof/exterior speaker. If it does that is their problem. I will now take the bike over and likely leave it for a few days or week or whatever so they can properly look at it. I'll keep you posted on the outcome. -

They are giving me a song and dance about the Clarion being only guaranteed for 3 years. I told them my guarantee was for 5 years bumper to bumper and I want that respected. They can go after Clarion for the replacement either at Clarion's cost or their own....the shop owner is looking into it now. I'll see if they respect that or not. -

Was thinking about that. I heard the polk were really good. Any insight on where I could get them online since I am in the GWN? Or is there anything better or more accessible? Thanks UPDATE: NM, google is my friend. I have found them on this side of the border for $90 per pair with half off for the second pair and free shipping. Now I need to see if it would be cheaper State side. -
My right rear speaker just started making weird noises when I drive. It seems when the wind hits it just right it just loses it's crispness (if that's a word). Should that be covered under warranty? The bike will be 5 years old at Christmas. I called the dealer and he said he would check but sorta said it wasn't. He never got back to me to confirm. If it is not covered I'll have to look at replacing it somehow. Thanks

I read many good reviews on the haror freight. It looks very nice and the price is certainly right. I may be a bit late in the year to get it, not sure. I'll see if I can get it shipped to a border town and pick it up there. Thanks all for your replies.

Wow what an overwhelming response. Thanks a ton guys. All of this will help greatly to help me decide. great help Thanks

Hi all. I am looking at getting a trailer to pull behind my scoot. Not sure if I should build or buy. If I build, I am sure I can get a couple of friends to do the welding for me at the school where I work. Should it be aluminum tubing? I would think it's better for weight but would it hold on the road? Then put a car top cargo on it again for weight. To buy, not sure where to look for a good price and quality at the same time. Any ideas are welcome. If you have a plan of how to build one I would certainly appreciate it. thanks

Thinking of a second Stebel
Maritimer replied to Maritimer's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
Alright. I guess I can do that. Thanks for the info all. -
I have one mounted on the right side where the stock horn was but I always wanted to put one in the fairing as well. Is there a good tutorial and pictures on how to do this and still keep my existing stebel on the right?Thanks

Is there any better place to buy one? By better place I mean cheaper I checked FleaBay but nothing cheap there. I am in the GWN but I'll travel south of the border to pick one up if it is worth the it. Thanks
