  1. Yup, if Rick stopped shaking his head, the rattling would slow down or stop....
  2. Check this out. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=48414
  3. I'm on my 2nd rear on the 86, after 2.5 months & 10,000 miles hauling a loaded trailer around the US. The 83 is on its 5th rear, since I got it. Both bikes got fresh tires for the trip & got the rears changed out after it. :mo money:
  4. I have the Kisan Pathblazer on both the 83 & 86 VRs. Been running it a couple of years now.
  5. I do have a Buckeye stator in the 83 Deerhunter, that I ordered right after the 1st Nelson meet & got it a week before PIP. So it was about a month at the time to get it, but no problems so far with it. I have ordered or installed, a few of the "Ricks Motorsport Electrics" stators (since finding them), in the last few years, for a few bikes & no problems as of yet. We had 2 of them overnighted into Cody WY & I installed them the next day in Whoomp's and Marvins bikes. So we were able to ride Yellowstone & the Chief Joseph, before the end of the meet. At that time, Buckeye was re-winding OEM cores & it would have taken weeks, for one of his. But after our initial contact with him, he had a competitors stator (no idea which make) overnighted to him & then overnighted it to Cody. So while we were riding Yellowstone a 3rd stator arrived, so StuD took it home with him as a backup, for one of his scoots. BTW it would have been about $660. each for OEM stators, as we checked locally first.
  6. Got mine yesterday...:thumbsup2: Maybe, I'll open the box & look at it this weekend. Or just go riding.
  7. Maybe, we better give Carl somethings to pratice with. Nope, I doubt it, very much.....
  8. Nope, I was In Chilliwack, doing a Convoy Ops Ex & the scoots at home.
  9. Get Gary to ride it up, just like during the 1st Cody trip.

    retired

    BTW has she made any progress on the cook book, in the last few years???? I just might do a western states tour this year, should I bring a tow strap (in case I hit your area), so you can keep up?
  11. Maybe the warden posted it??? I know she reads the site, some & has posted on here before (usually when Dan was in the hospital though).........
  12. It is part of the collector, but it would be nice, to find reproductions though.
  13. That is what I use on mine.
  14. Much easier on the eyes. Don't want to inflict others with the real life vision of you, riding around wearing a thong without pants..... Visualizing it is bad enough.....:bang head::bang head:
  15. Today's was the first ride, without the PJs & slippers. Dressed more or less normally, for riding. :thumbsup2:
  16. Yup, better keep a closer eye on him. As he should be better dressed, for riding (dress for the slide). PJs & slippers won't help at all.
  17. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
  18. What snow is there to ride in, down there????
  19. He was planning on a 5 day trip, to Winterpeg. :snow::snow: Did Russ meet up with Sarges46 & family, while close by???
  20. Had good Tutors, as well...........
  21. Carl, my Denray hitch actually looks cleaner, than yours does. Thinking of checking with them, for the 86 as the Markland hangs up with the trailer (when backing up). Unless I can get some fly guy to make me a receiver hitch, that connects to the Markland tubes.
  22. At any time, not just at 3 AM...... :bang head::bang head:
  23. Rocket

    OOPS!

    Sounds like it...... Maybe he needs a V Max ride @ WOT to flush things out.
  24. Just might, be doing more touring again this year, so this could be a possibility.
  25. Too late, you're already a member...... But seriously, I find it quicker & easier to talk someone through things, than to type it out, unless parts diagrams are also needed. Sorry I missed your last call, phone was in the tool box & I was elsewhere in the base workshop. I heard the voicemail after reading the thread additions, that night.
