    If he did actually re-jet it, I would bet that is the problem. No re-jetting is necessary when adding the Road King mufflers or any other slipon mufflers for that matter. Also check to make sure that the carb boots are seated properly on top of the carbs, they can lip up and you will suck air.

    If I lived closer and you didn't buy it, I would. It should make money.

    Pull the gas tank off and make sure the carb boots are seated all the way down on the top of the carbs. Mine was doing something similar and I found that the boots had ridden up and it was sucking air.

    Yea, of course we remember. I'll bet Eck remembers too. Welcome back.

    Randy, good luck my friend. If you are going to the Cole Eye Institute, that is where I went to start out. You will be in our prayers. They have some great doctors there but remember that they aren't the ONLY ones.

    OK...I don't know about the Canadian sources but here is what I recommend. Order what you want and have them shipped to my house for maintenance day. We'll install them while you are there.

    For now, look in your UserCP...scroll down to "Paid Subscriptions". I am trying to migrate all paid members to the "Supporting Members" group. Once that is done, it will show in your posts.

    You bet...prizes are always welcome and fun.

    In regards to the service manual, make sure you are using the latest version of Adobe. That problem is often caused by the file being created by a newer copy.

    He is right though, the links are not showing up properly for the newley created "Supporting Members" group. I have found out what is causing the problem and will try to get it resolved tonight. Sorry about that.

    Got 200 members transferred tonight. You will probably see some now with "Supporting Members" beside their name when they post. I'm done for tonight though, will get some more done tomorrow night. Thanks for your patience.

    I think the Honda is a great car and will give you MANY miles of service. They look pretty nice too. As for the running lights...I'm not sure that it's law. I know that many Chrysler products do not have them. My company car is an '08 Caravan and it doesn't have them.

    No tickets...a former..or present...I'm not telling...member who went to a fuel injected bike donated the carbtune as well as a set of speakers. The speakers should work on a first or second gen. Also a used by very usable service manual for the 83-84 Venture. So...there are some prizes. Just show up and drop your names in the jar and you will be entered.

    Yes, a lot of us bought directly from Morgan and I've never heard of a problem. Just a footnote, I will be giving one away at maintenance day. Must be there to win.

    You know...there IS our original saying that is already on our patches and etc. Life's a Venture! Get on and Ride!

    I had a black 920 but don't remember what year it was. It was a great riding bike though. Only problem I ever had was the the starter would turn it over very slowly when it was hot. Never failed to start but sure made me wonder a few times. Also had a 750 or 700 close to that same year.

    OK folks, this evening I will start moving all paid members from the "Registered" usergroup to the "Supporting Members" group. This will take me at least a few days because I have to edit each paid members profile to move them to the new group. That is my fault as I didn't have it set up properly before I started the subscriptions. Anybody joining now will automatically get moved to the new group when they purchase a subscription in the UserCP but for those that have already done so, I have to do it manually. I would have been well on my way but there was a little glitch and every time I tried to do it, the supporting member lost the ability to login to the site. A couple of you ran into that and I apologize. So now I have that figured out and it just matter of editing all the profiles. Once I get all the paid members moved to their new group, then I can go back and change the access permissions for the registered but non-supporting members. This is all going to take a few days and in the meantime, those of you who are already moved will show "Supporting Member" beside your name when you post a message. If you have paid and don't see that designation, it's just because I haven't gotten to yours yet so please be patient. When I am done, I will post to let you know and THEN if you see that you got missed for some reason, you can let me know. Thanks, Don

    BRIEFS!!!! Now there is no reason for you to be staring at my butt.

    Thanks...I'll correct it. Really one year is all I'm doing at this time.

    The BEST way is to just go to your UserCP...scroll down to Paid Subscriptions and do it there. If you use the donate button, I will still get it but then I have to go in and manually update your account. I can do that though so it's not a big deal.
  22. Freebird
    Not at this time. Nothing has changed yet but when I get finished, new folks will get a 30 day free trial when they register and will be able to post. After 30 days, they will revert to registered but non-supporting status and their permissions will automatically change. Not sure yet what all they will have access to but will not be able to post.

    Man...I really hate to hear that. I think that Yamaha will ask for your first born for the fairing. Actually, I think it retails for about $650.00. You could get a discount on it from the Motorcycle Superstore but it's still going to be expensive. The first thing I would do would be to take it to a GOOD body shop and see if they can repair it.

    No guessing involved. Everybody has seen it....and it's chrome.

    Yes, large and small patches are available in the VentureRider merchandise forum area.
