    Is there anyone in Athelstane, WI that can look at a 99 Venture for me? The fellow selling it seems to have issues getting pics uploaded, plus there is no substitute for someone to actually get there and have a look. We have a few days until the fellow gets back in town for Christmas, so theres no rush. Brian

    I agree, most people west of Ontario could care less what happens from the Ontario/Manitoba border east. We have far more in common with, and pay more attention to the western US than to Eastern Canada. Brian OOps that wasnt sposed to be political....

    Ive had a couple that used a tube or I-channel that the chain or belt connector slid back and forth on. Also the bushing on the side or bottom of the unit where the pulley is running on needs some light oil as well. All that stuff with grease on just gets sticky, not slippery at -30 or below. Brian

    nope my garage door opened in any weather, up to and incuding -40,.....but you have to use thinner greases on any slides, rollers etc. a few years ago i was in a new to me house where the previous owner had used a thck wheel bearing grease on the slide that the chain pull was running on and my door opener didnt work. I basically sprayed the suspect areas with wd40 to dilute the thick grease and i was fine in no time. BTW i noticed this morning that you all in GA were colder than us up here in Saskatchewan were. I feel sorry for ya, if youre not ready for the cold it feels worse than it really is. Brian

    I got mine from partshark.com......Mine weeps a bit whenever there is a big temperature change, even after the metal impeller was installed. I think its a real common issue, and as long as mine doesnt ever increase to more than the tablespoon or 2, I aint doin anything with it as it only leaks when the temp drops below freezing. Brian

    its great that you got out for a ride, i sure wish I could, its been a long time since last July that ive ridden. I am so envious... I saw a few shots about all the rain out there, and I hope it hasnt affected you or anyone you know. Brian

    thanks for that link and info. I knew there were quite a few Canadian guys had gone to Nam, but I didnt realize it was 40,000. That would have been volunteer then as we didnt have draft since ww2 was over. Thanks to everyone (American, Canadian or any service personnel) who has servered in Nam, Afghanistan, Iraq, or anywhere. Brian

    I remembered seeing this on Alberta Clippers scoot, and it looked great! He had said that he had made his own pod, maybe you could see if he has a mold, or some info that would help you out. here is his thread about it. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=33963 Brian

    It looks like youre ok for seafoam in the crankcase, but I am thinking that it might be best to leave it in for fairly short intervals, IMHO http://www.seafoamsales.com/how-to-use-sea-foam-motor-treatment.html Brian

    Nope, I wouldnt live where you do with all that cloud and rain, I would be a basket case in no time! I gotta have my sun.! I wouldnt hafta say it if you guys would wake up and realize there is a better place than the WET coast..... Brian

    Yeah, but you guys all forget to mention the nice warm summers with more sunshine than almost anywhere else in Canada. I would far rather be -30f in sun than close to 0 in the rain and cloud. You never remember the days that are 90F -100F in summers or the fact that most years I am riding my bike for 9 months And you can still afford to buy a home here and own it. But i gotta say it is easy to find your dog if he has run away. Brian
