    I am really scared to hit the rev limiter range. My engine might explode.

    She is definitely a keeper.

    Congrats on the new beast! Enjoy the power of Yamaha. Ride safe.

    My Venture is filled almost to the full mark and I don't accelerate hard enough to the point that I may reach the rev limiter mark. So far, no oil coming out of the vents. I'm just a little over 2K miles and hated the month of January in terms of being able to ride due to the weather.

    The next time you go to your local gym, don't forget to do 'Squat' exercises. It really work the buns:Bunny:.

    From what I read, simply adding enough oil to the almost full level may take care of the problem.

    Quite surprised on this end too. Me at 5'5", I can almost flat foot my Venture, but I can live with it with no lowering mods. Some say that the rear may cause some erratic handling of the bike, when lowered on the rear. At any rate, I do have the Baron's lowering kit for the Venture FOR SALE still in its unopened package. PM me for details, if you are interested

    I am not sure why you would like to bypass the cooling fan. Unless you are having heat issues thus causing your bike to run poor, I personally would not recommend doing this. Perhaps just replace sensors or thermostat at a regular basis and let the system work as it is intended to be.

    I don't know a whole lot of nice routes in PA, but with the help of my new Garmin I don't have to worry about getting lost. I can't wait for Spring and Summer.

    +1. Too expensive for some of them, but then the quality might be far superior than the cheaper kinds.

    I speak with experience on this matter ...you will be the one and only one to determine if you have enough in there. The trick is give it time and some .

    With this thread, I will keep in mind many possibilities that can go wrong including the kickstand. There is always something new to learn in this forum everyday.

    I hope you would consider this a happy ending...now you can ride. Ride Safe.

    The bike sure looks like my co-worker's 2007 RSTD.

    Mine does not really look like H3's from the outside instead it has 2 legs. It also does not look like a sealed beam for it has a phillips screw at the bottom to open the housing. I will try to take a pic once I open the housing this afternoon or tonight.

    Thanks for your input KiteSquid. Now that makes sense to me on the 'passing lamp' terminology. I will also take note of the 2 choices of bulbs to get, however, I am a little bit hesitant to open the case and determine what type of bulb it is. I am hoping it would be an H3 bulb and 35W so that may be easier to get. I had a light bar on my Vulcan and it used an H3 25W bulb and was not readily available locally...only online. As I was typing this message, I took a quick peak inside the lamp housing and it did not look like an H3 bulb. I've searched on Google and the PAR36 bulb appears to be a sealed beam type lamp. My bulb has two stems and extends to the back of the lamp housing (as I see through from the outside). Any ideas what kind of bulb it is? I am hesitant to open it up and this might be a cause for a premature failure of my bulb by accidentally touching it.

    I am not familiar of an RSCT, but I've seen an RSTD.

    I am wondering why they are called 'Passing Lamps' instead of just saying 'Light Bar'? I also have the lamps installed and curious about what kind of bulb does it use. I'd rather keep a spare or two in the garage just in case they burn out.

    Your commute to work is really short in my book and that the battery is not getting a full charge (My '08 Prius will not even like that short drive). As mentioned earlier, a good battery tender or conditioner will do the trick. Now that I saw this thread, I may very well plug in my battery while I watch the football game. (No riding for the next 4 or 5 days). One other possibility could be that your stator is not charging your battery properly and your current battery is at a slow death (IMO). Let us know how it turns out, once you plug in your battery...Regards.

    J&M is working on a nice Nolan FF helmet with Bluetooth built in for the Venture. I am waiting for them to put it on the market per their email.

    Cold as HeII

    N3FOL replied to Bubber's topic in Watering Hole

    I will take 30° instead of the teens...that means I may be able to ride once again next week.

    +1. I can still see outdoors after 5 pm and that is a very good sign. This cold air is just getting to my nerves. there is absolutely nothing for me to do outdoors around the house and I even don't feel like working in my garage with temps in the teens.

    or less...

    The bike for sure has a Bike Show appeal. Not my style of riding though. I give it a 'thumbs Up".
