Attached are a few pics from Thursday's ride to SLO, and Friday's pre-ride I took when the mood struck me, or I remembered I had a camera....

Way back when, when I had trouble getting my clutch working, Mike suggested taking the air hose and blowing out any crystals in the clutch line. So I blew the cr*p out of it, and did get some junk out of the line. It helped. The crystals will build up just beyond the bottom hole of the master and the banjo, and can act like a check valve. They can also get up into the cylinder, and even though you've cleared the relief hole out,they'll plug back up again. I know it's frustrating, and it's tough chasing ghosts. What finally worked for me is I removed the entire clutch system and reinstalled it by the book. After the wrestling match, and getting the thing to work, I was so happy I coulda spit.... Don't give up..... Also when the pressure is up in the lines, and the clutch pack is released, you won't see much movement in the pressure plate as it's already extended as far as it'll go. Take the line off at the slave and the master, hold a rag over one end and blow through the other. Betcha you'll get crud out of the line.

I didn't know they served armadillo burgers in michigan???:rotfl:

I noticed in another thread someone posted a link to an OEM toe/toe shifter for the RSV's. Even tho- there's a 13" spread between the pegs on an RSV, it still looks like it'd be a squeeze. Wish I had small size 13's....

They were all out riding. Not sitting around posing for photo-ops..... :rotf:

first gen temp guage
Condor replied to george0fthejungle's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
There's a ground wire that comes off the housing that holds the temp sensor and fan sensor. Might be a dirty ground. Also the drain valve may be in the 'ON' position and the coolant is bypassing the thermostat. I had that happen to me about a month ago, and when I put in on 'OFF' I noticed that the temp didn't climb as quickly and the motor did run cooler. Might be something to look at.... -
ONLY ONE!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeesch..!!
-
I just gave my extra one away.... All kidding aside there's got to be a company out there somewhere that makes the dang things. After 25 years there's quite a few that have disappeared.....

Wow! I'm glad we only have earth quakes....

First Gen Vents/louvres
Condor replied to george0fthejungle's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Didn't know that. I was lucky enough to have the '87 panal color match the '83 VR gold. I think the '85's only came in brown?? If George's scoot is a standard and red, 88 and 89 red maroons will come close.... -
First Gen Vents/louvres
Condor replied to george0fthejungle's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
You may want to check your side panels. The vents where available from 86 on, and the earlier Mark I's don't have the screw mount posts around the opening on the inside. I have the vents on my '83, but it has side panels from a gold '87. On the leg vents in the lowers. Ebay, and they're all the same from '83-'93
