I know that itch well. I quit riding when I was just in my 20s. I had kids and couldn't afford a bike at the time. After my daughter got engaged last year I got an itch that only buying a bike would scratch.

I changed them at different times, so I didn't notice the difference.

I don't know what you changed from, but I just replaced original Bridgestones with E3s on my bike and I love the difference it made. It handles better at all speeds.

New RSTD Ownerr
eazyduzzit replied to wakers's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
I was thinking about this very thing today when I had to make a quick stop. I have never locked up my back wheel, and I've had to stop suddenly several times. I always use the front and back brakes simultaneously. Is this not how other people use their brakes? I'm just curious because I've seen it posted here before how easy it is to lock up the rear, but I've never had it happen to me. -
Any tips for removing lower cowlings

Pull backs for Handlebars ??
eazyduzzit replied to a topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
You can't use risers on the RSTD. It isn't the same as the RSV. The Flanders part #650-08783 replacement bars is the only option I found. I did not have to replace any cables or lines, I just re-routed them a little. It's pretty simple to do. -
Fabricated a new hitch for my '06 Midnight Venture
eazyduzzit replied to DaveDanger's topic in Trailer Talk
Nice, That's the best looking hitch I've seen on one of these bikes. -
Sounds like it's way over hyped. It can't be that good....
-
That's a beauty.

Power socket on RSTD?
eazyduzzit replied to Shipper's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
Here is a post I made a few months ago showing how I did mine. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=30178 -
Along that same reasoning. The company I work for cut 4 of our people because our sales were down for a few months. Now sales are picking back up, but we don't have enough people to handle it. Phones are going unanswered, morale is bad because everyone is overworked and the boss is more of an ass than normal because he's worried about his job. It makes no sense to me to ruin a business just because of a few bad months.

Funrider, I like your sig line. It's a good one to remember... A clash between a bike and a cage, you can not win. Choose your battles wisely and live to ride again.

I told him to check out this site.

I just posted earlier about the ride I took today on the one bought by a friend. It had no whine at all.
-
No, never ridden a "real" one... but I'd like to. Maybe when I get my truck paid off...
-
Oh I meant to mention the great ride we had. We rode down to Fall creek Falls. The weather was wonderful, and we had a great time. Nice area. Some of the roads around here make you wonder why people make such a fuss over the Dragon.

A buddy of mine just traded his '06 Tour Deluxe in on an '09 Venture. Today was the first time we've ridden together since he got it. He wanted my wife and me to try it out, so we swapped bikes for a few miles. I loved it! For some reason it feels lighter than my RSTD. It handles great, and I love the seat and having a radio. I didn't really want to give it back. Karen liked it too. She said she could see over my head on it, and didn't have to hang her head out to the side to look forward. This is a picture of him and his wife. I told him about this site, but he's not much for computers.

I love it... Very nice!

A guy at work just sold his V-Star and told me today he's looking for a bike like mine. I told him I would post on here and see if anyone has one for sale. I know sometimes I see what I think are bargains posted on here, but I haven't been in the market, so I don't usually pay much attention. Just so you'll know, we are in East TN. and he's looking for a bargain.

RSTD windshield
eazyduzzit replied to keithert's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
I have had mine turn totally white in fog, and had to hang my head off to the side to see. I have thought about cutting it down some, but I'm afraid I won't like it and once I cut it, I can't put it back on.- 10 replies
