I don't know if the float valves can get grooves in them or not being you have the rubber tipped one. Mine was doing just about the same thing till I finally gave in and pulled my carbs and pulled the bowl off and pulled the float out. I happened to be working on it outside and seen immediatly in the sunlight what I had been missing all along. I could not see the imperfections under my 120 watts of florescent bulbs, that is what there called isnt it the tube lights. I have 8 of them float valves and seats, I can not use them on my carbs its totally different seat and needle...

Well I just went down and checked at Oreily, the 36 does cover LED lights. But it says right on the flasher 3-6, Mine is the 34 and it says 2-6 lamps... So I am left with why would yours be solid..... I would think the 36 would work, I know I checked my flasher out wired it all up and hooked just one bulb to it.... and it flashed it. So is there a way you can wire up your flasher to a bulb and check and make sure your flasher is working correctly. I know it is tricky to do but it is possible I used wedge lights.. -

I am fixing to head over to town I will double check. But I am thinking ep36 is for regular bulbs "Never ride faster then your guardian angel can fly." -
I have spent most of my day spring cleaning still got alot to do, But I managed to call several places about a NEW metering valve they all suggested calling salvage yards, I am real leery of this because it is something that I will consider a life or death safety feature.... So I will give them a call also to see if they do by chance have a metering valve that will work. I am rather shocked they don't carry this no more and do not have any aftermarkets I can find. Is it possible to rebuild the Metering Valve?

MattK I will apologize first off by giving you the wrong part number for the flasher unit, I will also state when you use this flasher you should not need any resistors. I sound aggravated in the video is because I had to make the silly thing 4 times before my camera would aim right... and focus like I wanted it to. This is the wire ground I have running I have no Resistors The Wire that originally ran over to the cancelling unit from the OEM Flasher is Yellow with a green stripe. The B is for battery and the L is for Lights and the C is for Cancelling unit . This is how the EP34 Flasher, This is My ground Wire I have running for both flashers, I think i should loctite this guys because it has came loose twice on me. Cancelling unit Location I did nothing here just showing where it is It is located behind the Right hand Fairing on the inner plastic piece that runs around the Neck. -
Wonder if they have the metering valves... Mine is leaking and I can't find any. Trying to find out if one off another bike will work.. So far I got nothing. "Never ride faster then your guardian angel can fly."

I am not sure where you cut wires, But I will pull the right fairing off of my bike. I need to know two things, One have you tried to go completely LED. I will try to reconstruct all the issues I ran into and I will do my darndest in detail to show what I have done. I fought with this Led thing for 3 months. I never gave up I just walked away from it and continued to study things. So in a way my fault for not making a clearer write up of what I actually did. I should have wrote it down in my tablets and then posted it to here once I got it all done. So give me a week and hopefully I can help you figure it out. This in no way was a trick, The 83 Venture was a Unicorn, Kind of the Alpha version of the bikes, then 84-85 was the beta, and of course 86-93 was the final release of them... Till they rebuilt something that was fine all along, Sorry 2nd Gens I cant tell you guys from Harleys half the time... -

I took my old tires and rigged paddles to my rear tire on the bike and found some barrels floating. Got out my ratchets and hooked them up to the barrels and made myself a pontoon.. Now just trying to figure out how to steer.... "Never ride faster then your guardian angel can fly."

As you all know in the south central part of the USA has been getting pounded by Storms. I awoke this morning to Tornado warning after Tornado warning in La, and a few other states , most area and town in Missouri are flooded as I am sure several other states or towns , the news can't keep up.. So sending prayers out for everyone as this system wreaks havoc.. "Never ride faster then your guardian angel can fly."

Apparently I've developed many bad habits over the years
snyper316 replied to SilvrT's topic in Watering Hole
:yikes::yikes: That is all!! I wonder about a car length for every 5 miles of speed? Is this no longer a requirement because never fails when I am going 70 I bet the person behind me is less then that required 7 car lengths they might be 1.2 car lengths sometimes I cant see there headlights.... I usually slow down to the speed appropriate for the space they are giving... That is scary that it is legal to pass on the shoulder, I don't know here in Missouri, Maybe I should go to DMV and get me one of them books... -
Anyone got the venture that is made for this stuff? "Never ride faster then your guardian angel can fly."

Pledge helps? -
Hey you all do know that you can get one of them dishlights in both white and silver:think: I remember them dish lights at work at kris kaye plastics.... They switched to white... In the warehouse first, found them brighter... I still believe the silvers was probably brighter maybe but directed the beam better, and reason white seemed brighter is maybe it spread the light better.. So it all want wasted on a spot on the floor...

LED lights on Tweeksis - she's an adorable 83 if that matters..

snyper316 replied to cowpuc's topic in Watering Hole
Once I added the led lights on the side I could not tell my headlight was on so really it was a no brainier then.. Either take the led driving lights off or go 100% led!! And when I have them all on wow I can see I no longer feel like I'm wearing yellow brown sunglasses trying to get down the road.. "Never ride faster then your guardian angel can fly."
