None of you are so far away that you can't make my annual maintenance day in July. Check out the calendar and make plans to join us. It's always a lot of fun.

I've owned the ColorTune for several years. I have found it to be a great product. Some folks have complained that they couldn't see the flame very well but I've honestly had no problems. It works better to do it in the garage or other dimly lit place.

Somebody should be all over that one. The base model Turbo II starts at around $2300.00. That's in white with no carpet or any other options.

I get a LOT of emails. Sometimes 600+ per day. I go through them pretty quickly and delete the majority. Then I go back and read through them again. I reply to any questions about the site, a member having problems logging in, etc. Answer any that ask a question about the bikes. I do enjoy many of the ones that get forwarded to me that are just fun or inspirational but one thing I will not do. I may read and enjoy but when it says "forward to 10 friends in the next 24 hours and blah blah blah...." that is NOT going to happen. Sorry, I just think those are nonsense.

Need Help Please!!!! Advice!!

They do make a special motorcycle oil. I've been using it in my RSV since 1999. I won't use anything else but others here have favorites also. You can find it at SOME Walmarts. I get mine at Autozone. Not cheap...about $8.00 per quart. -
It is adjusted through the pod on the handlebar. If you scroll through the menu you will find IC. Turn it down and you won't hear it in your helmet.

Yep....I do like them in white. Very nice.

Repairing Your Broken Fairing/Windshield Tabs

Hey..I can take a subtle hint. Copied to the tech library. -
Thanks for posting, it's nice to hear from you. I had the pleasure of meeting Mark at Vogel and he will surely be missed. Please don't be a stranger. If you need anything at all, just ask. We will be here for you. Don

hmmm....I'm easy to spot. I fly a VentureRider flag off my trunk and have a VentureRider sticker on the back of my trailer.

Actually, I have the option in the software here to add watermarks automatically to any photo uploaded here or in the PicGallery. I just don't see a good reason to do it.

That is what I use also. It is called Image Resizer. It is NOT a standard feature of Windows XP however. You have to download and install it. Here is more and the link. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1859

OK...just a bit of information for everybody. After spending WAY too much time trying to figure out why the video in my first post wouldn't work, I finally found the answer. I didn't know this because I have never uploaded a video to You Tube. Apparently there is an option when you upload a video there to NOT allow it to be embedded on another site, such as here. In this case, if you want to watch the video, just click on "YOU TUBE" in the lower right corner of the video window and it will open the video on the You Tube page. NOT where it says "You Tube" in the very lower right of the menu bar but click where it says "You Tube" in the lower right of the actual video screen.

Yes, fairly common problem. Several have had them replaced but I've been lucky...my '99 has the original switch. A little tip for you. If the new switch is keyed differently, you can take both key and have a new one cut to work both. Just have one side cut for the new switch and the other side to match your old key. Don

Don't know why the first one is not working from here. Here is another version but in this one, he doesn't explain it like he does in the other one. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55JMnSUTt8I]YouTube - ARLO GUTHRIE[/ame]

OK....embedded videos from break.com should work now.

A while back there was a thread asking what is the WORSE song that you have ever heard. Well....this is not the WORSE but it is very close to it. Plus, it is about riding and playing the guitar...two things that I really enjoy. So without further ado....I give you Arlo Guthrie and his motorcycle song.

Thanks for the link to the website. Nice fencing. I may have to make a trip to WV with a trailer pretty soon.
-
Sorry that it didn't embed. The hack that I'm using for this has to be modified for every online video site. It takes special programming code for each one. Break.com is not yet included. I'll see if I can get it to work soon.

A big thanks to rjmalizia for taking the time to share this manual. http://www.venturerider.org/manuals/1996-2001%20Royal%20Star%20LIT-11616-VZ-01.pdf

I could set it wider but I honestly don't know what the problem is with the width now. When you get to the end it automatically starts a new line so why does it matter? Also, I try to keep it compatible with the screen resolutions that several people might still be using. I have it set now for 640 wide. Some folks still use 640 x 480 screen resolution. If I make it wider, the window will be outside their viewing area.

Yes, flowers are being sent. Black Owl is making or has already made the arrangements to do so. Thanks for asking.

Full WYSIWYG editor. User CP, Options, scroll down and you'll find a drop down menu to choose the type editor you wish to use. You can control the length on your own as stated in previous posts. Upper right of this box where I am typing the response. Black arrows to increase or decrease the length.

I like that fence. Did you buy the posts and rails or are you making it all?
