I just used the one I bought for the car. I wired a cigarette lighter plug and mounted it (the plug) at the rear crash bars with a home made clamp. My navigator just holds it in her lap and slaps me up side the head when we need to make a turn.

Glitches on my 2004 Midnight Edition
eazyduzzit replied to Hal Lutzinator's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I can't give you an answer for your electrical problems, but I'd like to welcome you to the forum. Welcome! -
Sounds like it would make a cool trailer. Go for it!

That reminds me of when my cousin and I were kids. He had a St Bernard that was in heat, and the neighbors chihuahua came calling. He was actually trying to climb up her leg. It kept us laughing for weeks, every time we'd think about it.

I know! I rode to work yesterday because the high was s'pose to be in the 50s. Problem was it was low 20s on the ride in. I took the long way home though... Very nice.

which GPS is the best now???
eazyduzzit replied to Ga Dawg's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
This is just an opinion, but when it comes to electronics I don't worry about which one is best. My reasoning is that (like you mentioned) as soon as I buy one they'll come out with one twice as good for half as much. I didn't worry about water resistance either, as I figure as little as I ride in the rain I can stick it in a saddle bag when it starts raining. I don't expect this to influence your choice, just like to put my opinion out there like if it mattered. -
Don, that will get old very fast believe me. I would come home from work and my inbox would be full of that crap. You can change who is allowed to send friend requests. I change mine to disallow spammers from sending friend requests and I don't get them anymore. JT

Hey Jerry, welcome aboard... I'm pretty new here too. I like the Midnight Ventures. I think they're the prettiest Venture out there.

Best place to get windshield and tail bags?
eazyduzzit replied to roadwarrior's topic in Watering Hole
I had a windshield bag on my V-Star, and used it all the time. That's the first thing I started looking for when I got my RSTD. I looked everywhere, but couldn't find a one. One day I noticed a leather fanny pack that my wife had. I cut the straps off of it and it lays perfectly on top of my speedometer housing. It doesn't need anything to hold it as it never moves, but I did have her sew a strap with velcro to it that wraps around the speedo housing. I only use it when I'm going on a trip though. It's not the most stylish looking, but it doesn't look too bad and it's functional. -
I love Tybee Island. I haven't been there in several years...

Same to you Bill. If the rain quits, I'm gonna ride. If it doesn't quit, I've got a woodworking project started that I'm gonna work on. Either way it's way better than being at work. Happy Thanksgiving!

Bike not running right - HELP PLEASE!
eazyduzzit replied to Yamaman's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
If it will idle with the choke, but not without and dies when you twist the throttle it can't be getting enough gas. When you twist the throttle it's getting more air but not more gas and it dies. I don't understand why this happened after you and your son rebuilt the slave cyl. There isn't a connection that I'm aware of. -
It sounds good to me. I sent him my bank account info and debit card number etc. Hopefully he'll cut me in on the deal.

I don't know how they do it either. The truck dealership I work for buys nylon load securing straps that are made overseas. We sell them for around $7. I don't see how they even buy the raw materials for that price, much less manufacture, assemble and ship here and we put our markup on it for that price.

Biker shot in back. Shooter claims self defense
eazyduzzit replied to royalstarjac's topic in Watering Hole
Amen! -
That reminds me of when I was a kid. A friends dad painted his old pickup a cool blue color. I saw it and told him it looked good. He said "Yeah pop could have done a lot better if he'd had a decent brush". I walked up a little closer to it and sure enough, he had painted it with a brush. You couldn't even tell until you were right up on it.

Looks good... I like it!
-
Thank God he's OK. I've been watching your posts, and didn't know what to say. I'm glad everything is turning out alright.
-
Thanks for the heads up. I'm on the list...

I got to spend a week in the desert several years ago. It was some of the prettiest scenery I'd ever seen outside of Tennessee.
-
Yeah, the main thing is that you're OK. Many aren't so lucky.
-
Congratulations! I quit many years ago and made the mistake of taking up chewing tobacco, quit that and started dipping. Anyway suffice it to say it's been a lifelong struggle. I'm free of it right now, and cannot stand the smell of cigarettes. I still get the urge to dip sometimes, but only when I'm around someone who does it. The main thing is once you've made it 6 months don't go back to it. I've seen lots of people have a moment of weakness and start back. It's a lot easier to stay quit than to quit again.

If I bought it, I wonder if the dealer would fix it for "a few hundred".

Rear shock PSI?
eazyduzzit replied to Ferrantelli's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
When I got my bike, I was told by a fellow RSTD owner not to put any air in the shocks. So far I have been running 0 lbs. even fully loaded. It rides great. It doesn't bottom out like my V-Star did. Would it ride better with air?
