    Most of the Venture parts have the part number somewhere on them. What's stamped on the Pinwall part?? Do a Google search for the part number. It's the best way to find out what bike it fits.

    If you plan on ditching the side car, $3700 bucks is a lot of money to be spending on an '83 unless it's close to new with low miles. There are a lot of very nice '83's on the market in the low $2000 range.

    Great reminder Randy. Sometimes over time we have a tendency to forget what we've learned thru experience. Preventive Maintence would be a lot easier and quicker than after it breaks. If I remember correctly this used to be a problem on the '83 MKI's.

    I found that even tho the rivets were drilled out to the right size I still had to knock them out with a drift punch. Then it took a little persuading to git the tips to start to slide out. I took a good sized pocket knife and inserted it in the crack between the body and the tip and worked it around. Once the gap widened a bit I took a flat head screw driver and twisted it in the gap to coax the tip out a little further. Then it was a matter of rocking the tip back and forth while pulling on it. If the Bub's have been on for a few years they build up corrosion between the body and the lip. It takes a bit to get them seperated. While you have the tips off you might as well rebuild them. I bet there's nothing left to the packing. On mine I used Ceramic packing. From what's been reported it doesn't breat down a easy. I'll know personally once it stops raining and I get them installed.

    I'm hard to buy for... Too many interests and too many play toys already. But I did tell the wife that if it gets cold enough she's going to have a White Christmas. She laughed and said 'Yeah right'. So I gave her a 2 pound box of See's white chocolates....

    Another nice thing about the K'n'N's is the warantee. Needed a replacement for the oil soaked foam seal on an older 1stGen K'n'N. Sent them an email offering to buy another seal and they replaced it NC. The warantee is real...

    After that much Sea Foam thru the system you probably need new plugs. You may have one or two that are fouled and the fuel is burning in the exhaust stream causing the high temp readings. Also probably what's causing the rough idle??? My

    A few years ago when I needed a new helmet I read every mag test article I could find. Finally bought a Nolan 100E full face flip. It rated right up there with some of the pricy lids in performance and protection, wasn't cheap, but no where near the price of a high end Arai, Shoei, etc. I now own 3 of them... ya gotta match the bike color ya know...

    Great Video.

    I hear ya. I've watched it 3 or 4 times. The photography plus the music are adictive. All the days troubles just seem to melt away and it takes you to another place.....

    Very interesting, but I hate those anode posts. Unless you're very carefull, with the bike on the side stand, that dang nut will fall out and disappear somewhere in the innerds of the bike. I've already lost two when I installed the DEKA. And at $186 I'll wait a bit until the price gets competitive....

    This was posted on another board by a very accomplished artist and photographer. Hope she doesn't mind me posting it here. It's well worth viewing. [ame=http://vimeo.com/18026388]Riding the World[/ame]

    They're for the turn signal lights. They're opaque enough to let the light look normal, but give the appearance of more bling.... I think there was a Youtube on them, but I can't remember the title...

    I saw those too, and was going to bid on them, but if I remember there was some sort of issue with them being legal in California???

    Wow!! Every once in a while someone comes up with a great idea. If I were still into photography Ida had to have one...

    For what it's worth, I think you have an O-ring problem. Leaks only when it's very cold and doesn't when the engine, or weather, warms up. Almost like the drain plug o-ring on a 1stGen.

    I'm not in the least bit nosy.... That's why I didn't read this thread.....

    It's originally made for a 2ndGen. For a little more insight you can go to this thread. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=55204
