  1. okay, I did a AC test, and all three pins are showing 26.7 to 28 Volts Thank Bob. what's next?
  2. 17 degrees, was the coldest, but having a second bike (Yamaha 250), I would do polar bear rides on that, changed out the tires for knobbies:biker:
  3. Turned meter to OHM 200 @ (20 there was no reading) the R/R @ 1-2 1-3 & 2-3 all showed 1.6 ohms (the 2.0) the second time no loose pins & wiring was clean,, no burnt pins
  4. is there a picture showing where the ground wire is for the R/R ? I have the gas tank off, and I understand its on the right side of the bike near he neck. do I have to remove the other plastic plate, wrapped around the ignition? Just checking, for a lose ground
  5. this is something I just can't get started, I had one made last year, but it was too heavy. I'm reviewing, very lite weight materials, and want to finish with something like this
  6. You know there are TWO fuses that affect the audio system right? One is under the cover on the left side and the other is inside the lower right cowling. Have you checked them both? also under the fairing, all the major cables are connected there. ( Have the fairing split recently?)
  7. Ft. Lauderdale annual Toy Run, 150,000 + motorcycles. http://www.toysinthesunrun.com
  8. I received my speakers yesterday, they look pretty cool (Polk) I also bought longer bolts and spacers for the driving lights, I hate taking them Things off everytime I remove the Fairing. Sunday I'll take pictures of the work.
  9. traveling, I find I like to stop after 300 miles, I pull off in a rest area, away from all the cars, and pull out the folding beach chair, and take a nap next to the bike for an hour or two, then finish my days ride. I travel slow with the trailer on, 60-65, But I ride as long as there is daylight. I carry and small tent & Tarp, for rainy days. more food than I need, and a small camp stove & sterno's for cooking fuel
  10. For some of us dummies, we need pictures when you talk about some of these things
  11. I'm all ears on this.... powersportsplus.com has the stator @ 219.42, My dealer is 311.93 for the same parts.
  12. I have two friends with these. (Forest Gump) "that's all I have to say about that".....
  13. Wheat...
  14. I'll take two if you're selling them...:whistling:
  15. I DIDN'T GET THE MEMO !!!! WHAT, WHERE, HOW, WHY ??? DO WE GET THE DAY OFF BECAUSE OF IT?
  16. But If Yamaha would step up to the plate, and build a bike like the Wing, us 2nd Generation'ers, would have nothing to complain about, So its off to Wally World, to see.......
  17. I carry a plastic bag, with magnets on each corner, Its attached the the gas tank, with, a few sandwiches in it, a small cooler with 6 sodas on the back seat ( easy to reach)
  18. I carry every tool that I have used on the bike. even a grease gun for the trailer grease jukes. air compressor, tire plugs, and two LED flashlights, for those hard to see area's. But I also write down all the bike shops on my route, or what's close by, including Hospitals. I never use small county roads, and I don't ride the super slab, & I always carry more food and water then I need.
  19. But if you just can't help yourselves, and need to bust on a bike or rider, then go to the story game, "Its just that all good fun".
  20. So, Now I have to go all the way to Clear Water to visit you, when you live 1 hour up the road now??? I'm:confused24:
  21. But there's a reason why we have the right to complain. some of the 2nd Gens that come off the line, are perfect, other's are straight out lemons, and if the dealer had any Balls, they would have done what's right to confine with their customers. ( 5 year warranty !!!) MY A**. Now, you got me started...... Hi Joe How's it Hanging?......... You would think that Yamaha would step UP to its customers requests and build a better bike. I guess, all these folks on this site, have no output, on what the North American/Canadians would like to see in a REAL MOTORCYCLE. that said it's off to Kawasaki & Honda Today, to decide which bike I'm buying..... My Venture is for sale, Two months ago I had it for sale at 8700.00, this months it's 7800.00. The Venture is a beautiful bike, But not my cup of Tea. I WANT CHANGE !!!!!!! 2, 1,........ Cassette player?....REALLY !!!!!!
  22. Prayers and speedy recovery.
  23. so you mean no one is right???, the audio guy said top left to bottom right, which makes a 4 inch speaker, 5 1/2 inch:doh: doesn't matter now, I ordered the speakers that John T showed me. But its interesting to know the right way...
  24. they'd say she has to many miles on here, junk her:doh:
  25. Thank You John T I just ordered a set.
