  1. Buy a new bike (2nd Gen) and see my motto! Just Kidding, hope you get it fixed Carl
  2. Sent mine in today so we will see what happens 3yrs old $1100 new. I'm not too happy. I like the unit when it worked and will miss it if they can't fix it. I bought a Nuvi 255w for $120 while on vacation to use and now a backup if mine comes back. They still want over $700 new for the Zumo so I can't see that if they only last 3 yrs?
  3. I am on vacation now and my zumo has quit? The touch screen is not responding and looks brown on view side as if stuck. I have tried everything and believe it is in need of repair? I tried screen calibration and every boot possible. I,m not happy! have to send it in when I get home!!!!
  4. Thanks Carl I just sent a PM to you. I will send one to Wayne
  5. Hi Squid! I ordered and paid for two shirts but I need to query my Canadian friends to see if they have them. They were going to try and bring them back for me from the rally.(Yes I have friends). I am on vacation now so I will get back to you as soon as I can. Thanks John
  6. Hope the weather turns for you Dave. I know how much you were looking forward to this.
  7. Sorry to hear this Dave. I have never worried about my helmut but I guess you never know. Stay cool as it say's its 41 degrees today (106) in Vegas.But I think someone told me it was a dry heat! Yea right, hot is hot. See you when you get back with your new shiney helmut.
  8. Thanks Lewis. Let the bidding begin:dancefool:
  9. Great Canada day for sure. Great company,Great ride. Thanks for organizing this day Wayne. Sorry forgot the camera at home!!!!
  10. Hi Wayne: I think we will join you tommorrow but we will meet you on Hwy 9. I assume you are talking about the Tim Hortens just west of the corner on hwy 9
  11. Hey Dave: Try XS Cargo stores? They are a clearance type warehouse for discontinued items and other stuff. It's only $7.98 at XS Cargo and they say they have it in stock at all their locations, it seems. http://www.shopxscargo.com/product_catalogue/cat_product_quick_search.asp If the link brings up their home page search Mr clean and the product shows. Hope this helps. John
  12. I replaced the front tire last fall for leaking around the rim but I blame it on it being an aluminium rim. I run ride on in the bike tires but I do not think that is the issue. I have aluminium rims on my cars and they have leaked around the rim too through corrosion and I have no ride on in them? I will continue to use ride on for what is is designed to do and do not believe it is the cause of corrosion.
  13. Very sorry to hear about your loss. Prayers sent for everyone at this time of sorrow.
  14. Me Too! A7***
  15. I can attest to this as a great ride as we just did this ride and more(Follow the St Lawrence to Cornwall Via 1000 islands and Hwy 2)on the long weekend in May. We stayed in Gananoque and made it a three day ride. Your route is a long way and is guaranteed to be a long day but worth it. Won't make your ride as this is a busy month. The ferry is free to whomever was asking and runs every 15min on weekends. Have a great ride and maybe we will meet up someday.
  16. If we are talking the Frost plugs behind the cylinder covers. I just changed one in my bike and. It is on the crankcase shematic of the venture parts list and is called plug spec'l shape # 9 in the Shematic The bikebandit site http://www.bikebandit.com/houseofmotorcycles/2008-yamaha-motorcycle-xvz13tfc-royal-star-venture/o/m17111 Bike bandit part is # 7211233-001 I have the Yamaha part number in Canada #90338-11152-00 Should be the same in USA? Hope this helps
  17. Always hard to lose a good friend. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and his family in this difficult time.
  18. Prayers and thoughts go out to the family at this trying time, and to all that knew Bob our prayers go out as well.
  19. Larry and Joyce. All the best and here's to many more.
  20. Look at the trailer and the wiring for the trailer on the bike as last time we had the same issue the wires were corroded behind the licience plate where we wired mine. Hope this helps
  21. Good stuff Dave. Glad you are ready to go. The 4 wire vs. 5 wire trailer confused me so I couldn't help you either. So now let us know when you want to get out for a ride to practice with the trailer. John
  22. Sad news indeed Larry and Joyce. We will be thinking of you at this time. Take care and it was great to see you guys last week.
  23. YTX20L-BS) 12V 18 AH Or equivlent from another supplier. I just replaced mine on my 2004 and I believe the old one is still ok. No issues, just don't want to take the chance. The one below is the new one I have.It is at a Canadian site but it is just an example of aftermarket. http://cgi.ebay.ca/YTX20-BS-YTX20BS-CTX20-BS-battery-motorcycle-ATV_W0QQitemZ120463511166QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_ATV_Parts_Accessories?hash=item1c0c2f4e7e
