You can also tell if they are both right side by the indentions near the axle bolts. They will work but there are indentions on the mufflers that allow clearance between the mufflers and the axle bolts. The clearance is not an issue on the RSV but you will see it on the outside of the muffler where it should be on the inside, towards the axle.

OH...and I would also be very suspicious of that 4,000 and something miles. Being a police bike, I would be suspect that it has rolled over the 100,000 mark.
-
Well...for one thing the model they have listed is XV13DS-L. That is a 1300 and the '84 was a 1200cc. Also it has the larger saddlebags and trunk. So...based on the trunk and the bags...it is an '86 or newer.
-
They sure don't know what they are talking about. That is NOT an '84.
-
I don't see how the fins would fit. At the very least it would require some drilling and tapping for the bolts but I also think it would take some machining on the heads. As for the covers, I saw this question yesterday also but am not sure enough about what I THINK is the answer. I THINK the answer is no but only because I remember this being discussed long ago and thought that was the answer. I've never tried it myself.

Folks, we have a new member in San Bernardino that could use some assistance. He will probably post but is new to forums and etc. His username is CaptainDave and he rides an '87 Venture. I guess he has some questions about his bike. If any of you are in the area and could contact him via email, I'm sure he would appreciate it.

What is this plug??

According to the wiring diagram, the brown/w wire and black wire go to the Emergency Stop Switch. -
Welcome back Falko and thanks for the new link. I still have you listed in our links page but the link was no longer correct. I just updated it.

From what you say, I assume that the new battery does have a hole for the sensor? If that is the case and the sensor is installed in the battery, you might try pulling it out and cleaning it. Also check the ground for the sensor.
-
Gary, if that is true, then yours are different than everybody else's. I've never seen any that are voice actuated on the RSV.
-
Yes, that is normal. Some of us have added a Mic-Mute. I love mine. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=992

There are several of us here who run the Commanders. I've had very good results with them.

For those of you who have taken advantage of this offer, remember that you have to go back and "ACCPEPT" the $25.00 payment before it is credited. You should get an email telling you that the payment has been made. Just go back and click on the "Accept" link beside the payment.

You are an inspiration to me Gary. I have lost loved ones and it was very hard for me but I know that it doesn't compare to how I would feel if I lost my wife. I too still think about and pray for you on a regular basis. I'm glad that you are looking for and finding some joy in your life. Though you will never, and I think should never, get over this completely...I do think that the days will get better as time passes. I am glad that I know you and glad that I had the pleasure of meeting Leslie.

I wish that I could answer your question but since my Odyssey is still going strong, I can't yet. It is now 4 years old. If it craps out this year then it probably wasn't worth the extra money. If it keeps going at least another couple of years, then it probably was. Just don't know yet.
-
Yea, that was one thing that I read in my research. It will be a limiting factor for them until they go International. I would look for it to happen soon. Now listen folks, I would never try to talk a single one of you into doing something that you feel uneasy about. So please don't think that I am. I am signed up and really feel good about it. Already have the money from them into my account and actually already a couple of donations due to some others joining up. I am pretty dang cautious also so understand how you feel.
-
I certainly understand. That's why I spent over an hour checking them out. PayPal requires your social security number also when you sign up. That will be the biggest challenge for this company, getting their name out and establishing trust.
-
Anybody else? The link works for me.
-
I expect that they hope to make money on interest drawn from money if folks accounts. A lot of people, me for example, leave some money in their PayPal accounts all the time. I do that and use it like a checking account with my PayPal debit card. They also have charges for some things like paper statements, checks by mail, etc.
-
OK folks, this was brought to my attention by Cinderella. Many of us use PayPal but they have pretty much been the only player in the market and in my opinion, have continued increasing their fees to the point that it is getting a bit crazy. There is a new online payment processor named "Revolution Money Exchange". It was originally founded by Steve Case. If you join up now, they will pay you $25.00 for doing so. This is not a scam and if you search for "Revolution Money Exchange" you will find a lot of information about it. I just joined up and within minutes they had deposited the $25.00 into my account. So why is it better than PayPal? They charge NO fees for sending or receiving money. Here's another good thing. If you join you will get $25.00. If you join through the link that I am providing, they will also donate $10.00 to my account to be used to support VentureRider. It's a no loose situation. You get $25.00 and you also donate $10.00 to the site and it costs you NOTHING. Check it out. If you don't feel comfortable with it, that is fine but I feel good about it or I can assure you that I would not have signed up. I certainly plan to start trying it on any of my Ebay auction and etc. and to use it as an optional choice here for donations. PayPal will still be available for those who wish to use it. So, check it out if you wish. Please click on and use THIS link to ensure that the $10.00 goes to VentureRider.org FREE to register for an account FREE to add money from your bank account FREE to send money FREE to receive money FREE to request money FREE to transfer money to your bank account

Need help to find

If you are talking about the new collector that has been discussed here, or a replacement for the collector, here is the link. http://markspipe.com/index.htm -
I have to admit that I'm a bit taken back by the fact that we have a member who doesn't like Mexican food. That just doesn't compute. We have apparently let our membership standards slip very badly.

.4" is not much. I sure think that I would attribute it to the tire width and/or even the tread profile. I haven't checked mine that way but will try to do so in the next day or two and let you know what it shows.
-
I would love to join you also....way too much to do around here today though and that would be a long haul for us to meet up.
