  1. It should be able to calibrate it, you would probably have to remove the gauge glass and adjust. Why did the EPA have to make mercury so inaccessible????????? I have a set of mercury carb stick, so mine will NEVER go out of adjustment!!!!!!! I just have to NOT spill my mercury....
  2. AFAIK there are four afordable carb sync tools on the maket for four cylinder motorocycles. The Morgan Carbtue Motion Pro Emgo Guage Set And my personal choice the mercurey manometer (AKA mercurey Carb Sick) that costs about $55 and will NEVER go out of adjustment, however the mercurey is not a nice substacne to have around your home... See photos below. http://www.carbtune.co.uk/Images/SSL11411SC.jpg http://www.motionpro.com/images/enlarged/08-0411.jpg http://www.denniskirk.com/denniskirk/b2c/product_images/3/8/0/600pix/38040005.jpg http://www.saber-cycle.com/store/media/parts/08-010.jpg
  3. I don't own one ,but does the owners manual for the Carbtune have a procedure for adjusting the channels??? BTW this is the main reason I have a four Chanel mercury manometer (AKA Mercury carb stick) nothing to go out of adjustment.
  4. These things have a battery in them. that can go bad... If you have to, get the unit replaced. they do it for free.
  5. Do you mean they don't have the wear indicator groove in them?
  6. There is three copies of Ride Like a Pro (RLAP) IV or V DVD's that are free for anybody who wants it. FREE, but they have to agree NOT to copy it, and to pass it along for FREE to the next person after a short viewing sesson.... maybe two weekes????

  8. I would recommend the FREE factory service manual available at this website for download.
  9. I don't have an alarm, just a good insurance policy. If somebody steels my ride, I don't want it back.
  10. Hard Rock Cafe, Does anybody live near Huainan city, Anhui province China????? I found this photo on the Internet http://www.ananova.com/images/web/1107536.jpg No, I am NOT claiming the target, just pointing out a possible target, if we have a Venture Rider in China.......
  11. Yes I did point that out, but he still wanted to see it.....
  12. GREAT!!! So, what did YOU learn??????????
  13. I looked at the schematic in the back of the service manual and WOW is the flasher and hazard relays tied into a lot of stuff!!!! They are even hooked into the cruse control!!!!! It looks like a PITA to reverse engineer the electrical to make this change!!!!!!!!! I too agree that the hazard lights should be able to operate with the key in accessory and run. I agree that the headlamp and passing lamps should turn off when starting...... Something for somebody who has some time to figure out.... One issue I have with the schematics is they don't show the operation of the guts of the relays and other components.....
  14. Thank you for this URL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
