    Probably not after you accused him of being stupid.

    I didn't spend any time looking around. Just got them from Dennis Kirk a the link that Larry provided in the first post. http://www.denniskirk.com/jsp/product_catalog/Product.jsp?skuId=494431&store=&catId=&productId=p494431&leafCatId=&mmyId

    LOL....you need to back up there a bit Condor. Midnight Venture is his username, NOT the bike.

    Finally got around to ordering the clamps and they were here when I got home yesterday. Did this install first thing this morning. Very easy to do. As Bamico said, I did have to disconnect the shifter and the shifter bracket but that is very simple to do. As usual, Larry has built a great product that should be installed on every RSV out there. Fantastic product.

    Thanks. I'll let you all know what I end up with. Heck...I'm almost to the point of not doing it at all.

    Using an oil other that Yamalube cannot affect your warranty.

    Yes I am. I may be wrong though. That is the way that mine seem to work and I thought I had read the specifics somewhere in the manual but I search both the owners manual and the service manual last night after posting this and can't find anything. Maybe I imagined it.

    I THINK I see a Samuel Adams on that table. If so, somebody has VERY good taste.

    Here you go. I managed to find a "FAT SMILEY" for you folks.

    We are very happy for both of you. Don't worry about the bike...in just a few short years (maybe 20 or so) you will be able to get another one. Seriously, it is great news and will bring you much joy.

    They only turn off automatically if you turn them on above a certain speed. Otherwise, they are manual.
  12. Freebird
    I don't know how. There must be something different in your bike and mine.

    Here's where you order them. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17406

    and you will NEVER hit the rev limiter in 4th. I'm topped mine out in 5th gear and then downshifted to 4th and picked up more speed. These bikes will actually run faster in 4th than they will in 5th. One note: That was before I installed the VMAX rear. Haven't tried to see if it will hit the rev limiter in 4th since that change.

    Thanks, they are a short drive from me.
  16. Freebird
    No, that would be WAY to easy. It's already black.

    Somebody here tried the Bazooka setup and it wasn't very good. Should be a thread about it somewhere here.
  18. Freebird
    Yes, the top is the darker color. Thanks for letting me know. Their swatches actually show it to be a lot lighter and not even the same tone. Sounds like a trip to the paint store is indeed the answer.

    To me it is worth it. As for gas mileage, I think that in some cases it can actually improve your mileage. Depending on how and where you ride.

    Very nice. Looks great.
  21. Freebird
    You stay out of this. I KNOW you are color blind.
  22. Freebird
    These are probably the best suggestions. I'll look in the phone book when I get home on Friday. Thanks.
  23. Freebird
    Yea, that's the problem They are SO far off that I'm not even sure which is which.
  24. Freebird
    It is the same color. The plate you did was great and very close. Plenty close for the location but this one will be on top of the trunk in the bright sun and I would rather get it as EXACT as possible. A slight variation is going to be very noticeable. It could also turn out that yours is closer than what I'll get from them.

    I picked up a used trunk spoiler and need to paint it to match my '99. Looking at the color rite page though, I am just not at all sure which is the correct color. NONE of them look like the darker gray color of my trunk top. http://www.colorrite.com/matrix-colors.cfm?CFID=2237224&CFTOKEN=91175331
