There has been no comments on the forum, but with the type of shirt you wore, you looked the wettest, even though, you both got equally drenched......

Exhaust Gasket 84 venture

Not at some CDN dealers they want $25. each. That is why I have been ordering at Flatout, to get away from the gouging..... -

Yup the jacket pockets are loaded as per normal... spot emergency locator, wallet, case for sunglasses, smokes & lighter, money for toll bridges, ID for border crossings (last 2 in easier acess pocket instead of digging wallet out).

Max was fine, before he was put into the bedroom with you....... Guess he was put in there to prevent him from escapeing with me:stirthepot:. As he was wanting all the attention, he could get, I noticed he only went to you for food........ Still haven't left the motel yet, need coffee first.............

Seeing Squidley in spandex, would not be a pleasant sight at all.......... Now that I seared that image into your minds:rotf:, it is time to get ready, to get back on the road, heading west.

Only one scoot had to be trailered back to rally HQ, due to breakdown / component failure. It was "Gunboat's" 2nd gen. Some of us here, got him up & going eventually, after finally determining the problem (with a couple of loaner parts tried). The 6 month old, dry cell battery, had crapped out on him.

Retrofit stator oil paddle p/n ?
Rocket replied to 6m459's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
It is supposed to keep the hole in the bolt from plugging. I had attached a PDF in a thread months ago, if you have time to look in my posts, go for it. As I will be on the road soon, with Sarges46 & Big Bob. -
I have been thinking on a trailer, but no hitch on the scoot yet (been waiting for a receiver type hitch to be produced).... Hint hint Beer30, time for an update soon....... Spare set of spark plugs do not take much room, Brad..........

I did the first leg of my trip yesterday, I am now at Sarges46 place.

AllanH & I are staying at the Victoria Motel. I just looked at their site & no mention of internet, hopefully I won't be suffering, from VR Site withdrawl too badly........

You did not say if the Venture is a Standard (no OEM radio), or a Royale (OEM radio installed & intercom capable). If it is the Royale, with the OEM radio setup, you will most likely need the interface cables to hook up the intercom, as that was an option for these bikes. See this thread for more info. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=20544

Headlight Problem
Rocket replied to DRAGIN TAIL's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Possibly cold solder joints on the CMS, look at the attached PDF, for how to check & repair. -
Remember with these units, it is only slow speed & in city towing, not across the state or longer.

Front fork rebuild questions
Rocket replied to Tupperj's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
If the Mk1 upper tubes are good, why not use them, as I believe the difference is in the lower legs (caliper mounts & anti dive). -
He could add on, chromed flotation tanks, so it won't sink into the depths of the pond.......... :mo money:
