I'm in need for a rear rotor for an '86 to '93. I've got the rear wheel off and would like to get one asap so I can enjoy life again. Thanks, Thanks, Thanks!!!!!

Thanks for the ideas. The emulsion tubes look fine. My charging gauge shows good, running to the upper end of the normal range. I have a K&N air filter and regularly run Seafoam and Motorkote. I've synced carbs and checked for any vac leaks. It starts and runs fine during normal riding situations. This just showed up while trying to put a Big Dog chopper behind me.(which I did)

Feels like I'm dropping em all. Kinda like an airplane that sputtering.

What will make an '87 start missing at around 6k rpm?

Palpal sent for one mug! Thanks

Wobbly Clutch Basket
foxman replied to Grisolm1's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Mine has the same problem. I can move the basket up and down about 1/4 inch. Also can hear the same knocking sound, but it just keeps going. I'm at about 93k. I was told the bearing that holds the clutch shaft need to be replaced. But that requires splitting the case. Guess I'll just ride!!!! -
I'm thinking about buying this engine but would like some input on the sound it's making. I know bikes don't sound right on a video but it's kinda got a knock (maybe) He starts it up toward the end of the video. Thanks for listening [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jC8D9qUmxEg&feature=player_embedded]YouTube - 1988 VENTURE Royale 1300cc[/ame]

I'm past 12k with my Avons. Down to wear bars on rear. Front looks great!

Hello, Can you tell me about the engine? I'm looking to replace mine.(92k and bad clutch shaft bearing). Thanks

Hey there, tell me about that 1300 engine. I've been lookin' for a good lower milage motor. Mine has 92k and has a bad clutch shaft bearing. Thanks! -
Motorkote comments and tracking??
foxman replied to Judes Dude's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
Add me the the Motorkote test. My engine (92k) HAD some noise coming from a wore out clutch bearing. Now the knock noise is almost gone and entire sound is better. I am running Castrol 20-50 motorcycle oil. I also put some Motorkote in my truck (159k). It sounds better too. -
I cut down mine too.
