    It is easily adjustable most of the time. Just loosen the jamb nut where the cable enters the throttle grip and tighten the knurled nut a bit.

    You might try this place. I think they have the colors for the '86. http://www.cyclecolor.com/id3.htm

    It really depends upon what you expect out of the headsets. If you are looking for something primarily for communication (cb and intercom) then the ones listed above will do just fine and Sierra is a great company to deal with. If you are looking for something with good fidelity for listing to music, you really need to pay more money. In my honest opinion, Edsets are about the best you can do. You will pay close to $200.00 per set for them though. The site is http://www.edsets.com You will have to register there to place an order. Register as a VentureRider member for a 7% discount. Discount ends in August though. Don

    Man...I am really sorry to hear it. Was looking forward to meeting you, shaking your hand and thanking you for your service. It would have been my honor. Have you not TOLD them that it is Freebird's Maintenance Day?

    I do believe that the higher and wider screen makes a difference but I don't think I've ever got as low as 100 miles on a tank. I did get down to about 130 miles per tank going to Colorado a couple of years ago but that was fighting one heck of a head wind, riding two up and pulling a very loaded trailer. That is about the worse it has been. After that, I discovered that I had a bad coil and the carb boots weren't seated well on top of the carbs so I don't think it would even be that bad again. I do love the tall and wide screens though.

    Just another reminder, if you haven't signed up for Freebird's Maintenance Day yet, PLEASE do so soon. I want to make sure that we order enough food. Here is the link for the calendar where you sign up. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=106&day=2009-6-6&c=1

    I've got 6 or 8 of them. If you are coming to Maintenance Day, I will save one for you. If you aren't, just send me a PM and I'll get one in the mail. See this thread for more details. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17406

    I've got one. No problem.

    Yes, or my house if shipping is cheaper to the USA.

    No, sorry but the hats, caps and etc. are provided by another member and usually made as orders come in I think. About the only thing I keep at my house are the small patches and the guardian bells when I have them but I'm about out of the bells right now.

    Not really. First of all, there is really no room for a larger tire. Secondly, it would take a MUCH larger tire than you could fit to make up the disparity. The Speedohealer is really the only solution and it is very simple to install.

    No, all I have is ft.lbs. If you don't want to tote yours though, I will pick one up. I'm thinking I may do my own also.
  13. Freebird
    No...thanks YOU for continuing to host them.
  14. Freebird
    They have now.

    Very good report and much appreciated. That system is a lot of money and you may have saved others from making a mistake. Sorry you have had so many problem with it. Sounds to me like they have a lot of work to do.

    That was nice of you Bill. I spoke to Ed a few days ago and he was hoping to make it himself but said that he might not be able to. Sorry to hear that he's not coming but glad you are going to make it. I have his headsets and am very impressed with them.

    All I can do is join the others here with my prayers for the family. Such a tragic thing to lose a child. My heart hearts for all concerned.
  18. Freebird
    Now that was a bargain and it sounds like the trip home was icing on the cake. Congrats on the new ride.

    I think somebody was right when they told you that you might have a trojan or virus. See this thread. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_get_rid_of_a_trojan_downloader_on_windows_system32_IEHOST_EXE_if_it_comes_up_on_an_AVG_virus_check_as_turown_g

    Hey, it's not that I didn't believe you, it's just that as far as I can tell it's not happening to anybody else. I honestly don't know what is causing it but will do a search and try to help you figure it out.
  21. Freebird
    Sorry, I promise you that everything looks completely normal for me.
  22. Freebird
    As MUCH fun as it would be to mess with you, I'm not seeing anything unusual at all. VentureRider.org Does that one show up highlighted?

    Folks, if you have purchased a subscription and get a reminder that it is expiring, please let me know. By all means, do NOT pay again. You should only get a reminder a year after you paid. You should NEVER get billed again automatically, I have the yearly subscriptions set to NOT be recurring so it will be your choice if you wish to subscribe again a year from now. A couple of folks have told me that they got emails that their subscriptions are expiring. I apologize if it happens to you but please let me know if it does and by all means, do NOT pay again.
  24. Freebird
    It's not happening to me.

    I know that MarCarl, BradT and several others are coming down from that general area. Also several from the Buffalo area.
