  1. This post will get lost in this forum, best ask the question in the Watering Hole.
  2. Nothin better than QUIET. Gives a person time to think their own thoughts.
  3. 13.5 with the engine running is not out of norm. I would check connections first. Let the battery sit overnight and then check the voltage, it should be at 12.6 for a full battery, 12.2 is a dead battery.
  4. We're still here and don't plan to go away anytime soon, so more discussion can be had.
  5. Enjoy!
  6. WoooHooo what a wild time!! now don't tell mommy!! yah right!
  7. I wonder if some organization has actually totaled up all the costs, dollars as well as climate, of going electric. Costs of getting the proper materials and the costs of disposal, vs the costs of gas powered. I've seen some stats but nothing all put together. I got a sneeky feeling that electric ain't so cheap.
  8. Episode 15 is just amazingly awesome, sure defines the work you guys have been up to. Could be classified as the best ad that Yamaha could use. Are you going to post it here?
  9. Kind of hard to let go though,, isn't it. It'll come, slowly but surely,, until you run into another happening.
  10. Now that is a beauty!!!
  11. I would do a real close check on the battery cables, making sure that they are super clean and tight, not only the clamps on the battery, but also the clamps to the cables. Then I would clean the other ends of the cables making sure they are tight as well. If you are doubtful of the solenoid I would suggest replacing that as well and then check out the operation of the start switch by doing a by-pass. As an aside, the engine will not suck fuel out of the tank, the tank is too low for that to happen, so your fuel pump must have been working to some extent, or you might have plugged filters.
  12. Can't really say we have no interest, after all, we already have what we want, mostly. That's why we are on this site. That doesn't take away from the look of the scoot though,, it looks awesome!
  13. I don't know, I wasn't there.
  14. Don't have any idea what you are talking about...did it happen today or yesterday and where was it when it flew away.
  15. I see some have one on the handle bars, hang in there, somebody might even give you directions.
  16. With the load you are putting on I would go to 40 lbs. 38 might be creating too much heat.
  17. Got them from Puc already.
  18. Just so that you can feel better informed, Dutch Navigator is not German,and by the looks of what he (they) built and refurbished they are not butchers either. Now I give them credit, they do have music and good choice,, after all it seems to be DUTCH!
  19. SMART!!! Where did you learn that now?
  20. Soory about that Semi. I was missing the last few days, but even so it seems that our fellow inmates have you covered off rather well. But in answer to your original question, I don't know for sure but would guess about 1/2 quart too full.
  21. So does that mean you have new tires? are tired again? or asking to start a thread on tires for another round of discussion. Maybe you should get some sleep, you can get tired if you don't sleep enough,, but you'll find that out soon enough. If you mean you don't have to go to your place of employment anymore then don't be thinking that you won't have work to do. Have a great time trying to get in some R&R in-between all the new projects. Please update us in 6 months. Congrats.
  22. So much for saying that a Venture will run on anything, of course being 10 years old shows that the owner is a real, honest to goodness Dutchman.
  23. Sounds about right, at least for the first time anyways. From there a feller can create once he's got a bit of a handle on things. Can't rush good cookin.
