Proud Pictures-My "New" (87) Venture, and Addiction
Wizard765 replied to jonsmyth's topic in Watering Hole
The blonde looks good. The hole in the left console in some cases has the drivers headset wire coming up through it with a rubber grommet filling in the rest of the hole. Some of us including me have installed a cigaret lighter type power outlet in that hole because it is a perfect fit. I got mine from a marine outlet and it is water tight as well as resistant to rust. You are gonna love this bike. Wayne -

More shifting woes
Wizard765 replied to Wizard765's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Hey Squeeze: It for sure goes to neutral even the neutral light comes on and I can then shift up to 2nd or down to 1st without a problem... I'm looking at the upgrade to the VMax unit to replace the round thingy with the pins. Thanks for that advice... I believe that is where the problem is. Wayne -

Ok folks: You guys (n gals) are amazing and have helped me so much. Here we go again. Sometimes when downshifting it skips second and goes right to neutral from 3rd. Not all the time and seems to work more often than not but I believe it is getting worse. I know someone here will be able to tell me what the problem is. I don't have 2nd popping out on acceleration. Upshifting is smooth and never misses a beat. A few weeks ago I had to take the clutch cover off and have a look at the thingy with the pins. A couple of them were loose so I fixed that and all was good. Any ideas? HELP?? Wayne

Robin and I are really looking forward to this. Wouldn't miss it. Already signed up and on the calendar. YAHOO!!!

Hey Phil: At least she is going to be OK. Insurance will take care of truck and it's replaceable. Thanks for the info. We will keep you and Bev in our prayers. Wayne

That looks very interesting. Light weight and practical. Seems like an excellent and versatile solution. Wayne

Yes I have one that I'm not going to use. It's in perfect condition like new. Brown. My 84 is a blond and this is the perfect match but my navigator is too short so it bothers her legs and I cannot use it. Wayne

I like it.. Dano it is.. It is simple and easier to remember... good choice.. Now waiting for the pictures of the new pipes installed... Wayne

Let me get this straight... Hmmmmm.. You are having your bike painted but don't know what color?? You just took it to the shop and said "Surprise me"? Brave man. Wayne

Finding the right words at a time like this is impossible. What a shock. He is in a better place but we are still here and will miss him dearly. Our prayers are for his family and friends. Wayne and Robin

Well we pulled into the driveway about 5:30 this evening. Got up this morning around 8:00 and had to put on the rain gear to get the bike loaded up. Rained all the way home. Even had to stop a couple of times due to heavy rain. So in the morning when I left Arkansas it was 80 degrees and climbing. Was starting to get use to mid 90s and sun. Was 61 in Coldwater last night when we pulled into the motel. Yesterday stopped in Indianapolis to pick up a shield for my helmet. Really glad I did. Anyhow we had an AWSOME time with all you folks that made it. Those of you that didn't make it... that really sucks bad. Looking forward to the next one. Brad, Lonna, Hal and Gayle... it was great sharing a room with you guys. You are all so easy to get along with.. Loved getting to know you all better. Wrongway. (Allan and Dee).. Thanks again for letting us stay at your place on the way down. Looking forward to hanging out with you again sometime soon. When we started unpacking we found our room key.... Guess I'll have to mail it back Dan and Rose... Love you guys.. Had a great time with you.. I hear you are home safe and sound BUT I thought you were making a detour to Deals Gap on the way home??? I want to thank Squid for installing the rebuilt clutch master cylinder and thank Bob for supplying it. Seems to be working fine now. Thanks to Hal and Gayle for arranging the room for us.. Almost didn't make the trip. Ok I guess that's enough rambling for now.. Wayne

We left the Hub on Thursday morning so that we could visit with my Sister who lives in Ravenden Ar. Had a nice visit and stayed the night. Ride across Arkansas was excellent. My sister and her husband bought us breakfast at 7:30 Friday morning in Pocahontis AR and we headed out. We are now in Coldwater Michigan. Made pretty good time and had no problems. Gonna get some shuteye and should be home tomorrow (Saturday) night. Hey Carl (and anyone else) want to ride Sunday afternoon?? Wayne
-
Wellllllllll Most of us are here now.... After 38 of us had and AWSOME lunch at Lamberts then off we went. The HUB is awsome.. Great view... from our room. Terrific bunch of folks and meeting more all the time... Great times.. Well I'm going back to the folks and touch base again later.. maybe even a few pics.. Wayne
