They may not be so far out actually. Our most intense areas for covid around here is in Toronto/Peel region. It's claimed that the high Covid count is due to the working conditions/habits at places such as Amazon and other close quartered plants. Understandable. And when the down and out counts ranges in the 100s in one location, it makes sense to me.

So if you can see for 30 miles on March 23, how far can you see on April 10th? lol.

Are you sure there is enough oil in there? I have never seen perfectly clear engine oil, mineral oil, castrol oil, but never engine oil.
-
Not anymore I bet. Although there will be more in the transmission side, and that stays there.

Nice work, especially if it works well. -
Top Oil leak suspect locations?
Marcarl replied to Pasta Burner's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Off chance thought. Is your oil level more than 1/2 the sight glass when bike is straight up? If the answer is yes, you may have oil leaking down from the breather. Another though would be that there might be a cover bolt that's not seated properly. These bolts are shoulder bolts and do not tighten onto the valve cover, they snug down on the shoulder which gives exact clearance needed for the valve cover gasket. If you added a washer or so to the bolt, it's done wrong and will leak. -
Try cutting a slot in it for a flat screwdriver, or just grind the head off entirely. The left over pipe will remove easily seeing as the tension is removed when the head is off.

They are still as good as way back when, recipe is still the same.

Thinking you'll need to become a paid member and then have a few posts, but I may be wrong about the post count.

I'm guessing that maybe Nobody has, but it's been a while since he's been on the forum, so might not answer,,,,, again. -
Moved it to the Watering Hole, you'll get more input from there.

It may not be long before 'Easter' arrives for those who have gone on before. Blessings!!!!

Good for you!! You did a lot of learnin' now the training starts. Just remember: The throttle is your friend. That's what I was taught some years ago.

If you replaced all the fluids, did you consider that brake fluid is also a fluid? Sounds like you did a lot of work, something you can be happy about and proud of. Good going!!

We'll just leave it at that then.

Hey!! Thanks for your input. The real issue here, the one that broke the camels back was that Niagara Shores wanted\needed a definite head count much earlier than expected, either on our part or their part. We were to have until June 15th to complete the booking, but they were turning down lots of business for the week already. We could not assure them that we would fulfill our ideas and they are in the position of having to scrape every available dollar that they could,,,, and seeing as this covid thing is such a moving target, I had to pull the plug. Yes a committee might be a way to go and I'm open to ALL ideas and volunteers. I don't even need to be a boss or leader or head. All good conversation, carry on.

I could put some coffee on and then we can chew the fat.

If you would only quit attracting the ultimate weather you might enjoy what we can send you.

Don't know about the burger anymore, @saddlebum, @sleepy2, @xv1100se and others have been around here. They looked kind of hungry and in need of nourishment so it was time to look for some fodder for those poor underfed beings. Did find some burgers but the boys didn't eat them, don't know what happened, so give me lots of notice before you sneak over border so I can have some well aged ready for you.
