    I hear those Mocha Lattes have about a ga-jillion calories in them. Dang they're good.....

    Do all of the 'theme' casinos. Luxor, NY..NY, Bellagio, Excalibur, MGM, etc. They are all amazing.

    Yeah, with the all the meat left on that tire and the nail being in the tread area I'da patched that puppy on the inside and boogied down the blvd.... I bet there's a dumpster diver out there right now, riding on it .....

    I'd go over and cut all the valve stems on the sellers car.....

    For the campers and cabineers, go ahead and make the Ponderosa the 'official campground'.... I might add that it's a great place and the cabins are very nice. I can't remember exactely how many cabins they have.... Ok looked it up..7.., and it'd be great to have them all Venture Riders. CABINS For an official International gathering place we really haven't made that decision yet. In '09 we named the Skyline Motor Inn the 'official', but ended up gravitating over to the Cabins. The porches on the cabins made for great 'conversation' areas where groups could gather. I'm a sucker for porch swings.... and.... I didn't break any....

    Here's a few pics that were taken during a Barnet install. It's on a 1stGen, but the MkII's have the same clutch as the 2ndGens.... Maybe these will help. BARNET TECH ARTICLE

    Besides what's mentioned above, check your front wheel bearings and make sure your axle nut is torqued properly....

    I don't know it the 2ndGens have a brightness adjustment for the dash, but one thing to consider if they don't would be night riding. You're gonna hate that dash when it gets dark....

    Yours may have the 6 coil springs, or it may have the disc spring. Just depends on whether the Barnet conversion included the presure plate. Either way it's pretty straight forward. No surprises....

    The '85 trunk would be the simplest, but hardest to find. The '86 and up's need the subframe replaced, and when you do that the saddle bags may not mount?? There have been a few industrious individuals that have swapped out all of the 1200 for the 1300 luggage, but it is labor intensive.

    An International Driving Permit (IDP) translates information contained on your driver's license into 10 languages so that officials in foreign countries are able to interpret your license. An IDP supplements a valid government-issued license--it does not serve as a replacement for a license. If you are stopped by law enforcement, you will most likely be asked to produce both your IDP and your official driver's license. The United States does NOT issue International Driving Permits to foreign visitors, so you will need to obtain this document before traveling to the U.S.

    Go over to your local Home Depot and pick up a couple of those twist-lock adjustable aluminum paint roller extensions. Put one across the back between the loose gromets. I just get finishing nails, heat them up, and stick them into the plastic end piece for tips. This'll keep those loose tarp ends from flapping around. Take the other and screw... the plastic end has threads....a 2"x6"x6" board... drill a hole in the middle of the board to snug fit, it doesn't have to be perfect.... cover the board with a towel or padding and place it in the middle of the cover with another 6x6 on the bottom. I use the nail end type to make cockpit tent boom covers on my sailboat. Works great.

    That's something I would have liked to have seen years ago. Even wrote them about adding that feature, but nope, no dice. I haven't tried but I wonder if (-reserve) in the sort might work???

    Smart owner. Has the looks of a Harley Bagger and the performance of a RSV....

    Who's the bike going to be for Annie? Quickstep? Are you thinking that if you make it to MD2011 you could ship your bike over, and then find something for Alan here?? I'm just wondering since we have a lot of multi-bike owners, someone near your port of entry on the east coast might have something you could borrow??? Hey..just a thought....??

    I gotta go check mine... Another thing I found curious is with the bike idling, and standing behind it, I can feel the pulses from the exhaust damn near 10 feet away. Couldn't beleive it. Never had that with the '83. 2-3 feet was about it. Could this be because of the ECS??

    1983 VR. 6'6"/350#. max pressure on the fronts (14) and the back (71), damper set at 4. Progressives with half preload. fork brace. Stock windshield. Avon Venoms. No buffeting and tracks like it's on rails....

    I was just poking around the web seeing what's available in trailer hitches for the RSV. When I went to the VentureDad site off Google it's no longer there. Then if found this post via board search and it's no different when I tried the link.... What gives???
  22. Condor
    I tried to find it by googling, but couldn't. So... Nope... didn't read it.

    OK all you graphic artist types, we're looking for a new logo for the Cody International T's and Patches. Here's an example of what we came up with for the '09 Round Up.. Now the planning committee would like to get some fresh ideas..... We're burnt out.... In one month.. 10/14... we'll pick the best of the best. http://www.cast-aways.com/codypics/black.jpg

    I just got through posting a thread on this subject with some 'howto' pics. I looked at the link above and really didn't like what I saw. Sanding leaves a rough seperation line between the black and silver. Not sanitary enough for my liking. However I gotta add that if the fins are already black there's not much choice, but in my case I picked up a set of side covers off Ebay from a '99 which are all silver. Now I'll still have the mint OEM's stored away if I ever want to go back. Take a look

    Yep, I'm aware of the sensor Earl. Thinking of just picking up a 2ndGen final and swapping out the gears if I decide to use it in the '99. And those are the first items I plan on attacking. Damn those K&N Air Filter's are expensive!!
