Anyone going to ride in the Trails of Tears Sept. 20th? I won't be able to join the ride but several of us from Birmingham will be going up to I think Madison AL to watch it come through on the way from Chatanooga to Waterloo. Been told there will be several thousand bikes or more.

It just gives me a tingle up the leg!

If you decide to change back to a toe shift I am in the market for floorbords and heel toe shift for my 86. Send me a message to contact me. -
I've been an electrician for 27 years and finally had someone explain electricity to be on a motorcycle website. Also you have to replace the sparks as well as the smoke.

Ithink I got some posted.

The Pirate Ship pulls out another one. First place in Touring over a bunch of Harleys and Wings. She's 2 for 2 now.

What good is a T-shirt without a pocket?

Well the old girl still has it in her. Won first place in the Touring Class. Actually had one judge tell me he didn't know Yamaha started making the VR's again. When told it was an 86 he couldn't believe it. Anyway we're 2 for 2 in bike shows.

I'll be there representing Ventureriders. Maybe the old bike can pull out another award. If nothing else with all the butterbeans there should be plenty of free gas!!!

For anyone interested there is the Butterbean Festival in Pinson AL this Sat. Lots of events including a charity ride and a bike and car show. Google Butterbean Festival to get more info.

I'll take 1(XL) if you get anyone else.

I heard about a 07 or 08 Midnight RSV for sale locally with only 103 miles on the bike. $12,900 is what I think the price is. Will check further tomorrow. A local used MC dealer has the bike. Anyone interested?

Last year my 86 VR won Touring class over all kind of Wings and Harleys at the local Covered Bridge Festival. One of the judges came by afterward and tried telling me how rare my bike was. I was just glad some other members from this site were not there.

Gotta love the way people jump to conclusions.

To really appreciate this paint job you've got to seeit at night. Lots of detail with reflective paint.
-
Where around B'ham do you live? Maybe we could get together and ride sometime. Might be interested in getting some patches made also.

What I've got are some single lamp LED's I bought off ebay with the resistor already installed to work off 12v. I'm looking at putting several of these in the rear light/reflector that I'm currently replacing since the old one got scared and bailed out on me. There was a schematic either on this site or the venturers website that showed how to wire these where they would work as both brake and running lights. Just don't think it practical to put a bunch of lights in there and have half brake and half running. Anybody got any ideas?

I think I've seen the wiring diagram I need on this site somewhere. What I'm looking for is how to wire a single LED to operate as both a running light and a brake light. Different resistors and a diode are needed if memory serves right. The running lights work at 9v and the brake lights at 12v. Any help with this project?
