    I use Pledge more often in the warmer months simply to make it easier to wipe off bug splats.

    He probably wanted to be funny in a sarcastic way. It won't bother me whatsoever.

    Thank you for the information.

    I think the M on 'ML16817' may indicate that it is manufactured for motorcycles.

    I have a bottle in my garage and I only use it once a year. Typically, I stay on top of my cleaning job on the bike and she gets a nice wipe/polish job after every other ride. Make sure when you do decide to use 'S100', do not use it on your blacktop driveway...it will discolor it.

    I've had a similar close call as well. A two way lane...a truck with his left turn signal going the other direction and me with my left turn signal going the other way. As we approach the intersection, the young kid decided not to turn left instead stayed straight on the road...good thing I did not bite on his assumed intention to make a left turn or it could have been a head-on collision.

    I have an iPod. What is the best way to use it on my Venture?

    I actually have at least 4 of the chromed 1" spacer that I got from my local TruValue hardware store. It should look nice chromed.

    Eddie, What color wire did you tap into in your Venture? The Signal Dynamics light bar seems to be a good match on the rear and is inexpensive.

    I've included an image of how my Venture is doing under my sig. It has been drizzly/rainy here in SE PA and MD area, but weather looks good for tomorrow. Can't wait to fire up the Venture and find out how gas mileage will be on my next tank full.

    I wonder if I can order a magnetic drain plug from my local Advance Auto store. The part on the website is 'MP-02', so I may check with Advance later this afternoon.

    The correct size of left hand drill worked great for me, when drilling out stipped head bolts. Start with the smallest size and drill on the center of the bolt and work your way up in size. In no time, that bolt will start turning to the left and out the hole.

    I always keep a good stock of Kawi 'Wipe Down' spray. For $4.50/bottle of a 16oz spray bottle last me a month. It works great with microfiber cloth available at Walmart.

    I really think you made the right choice and stayed with Yamaha. Congrats and lets us see some pics after giving it a nice wash.

    Very nice bike! Your Venture doesn't look too bad and dirty, but if I were you I would wait until after the service...then wash the bike.

    It is amazing to know that our '06 Nissan Murano also use the same filter size ...that is PL14612.

    I agree...anything moving should have the means to stop at a certain point. This thread gives me confidence, when it is time to replace brake pads.
  18. N3FOL
    After 60K miles...on original front brakes...congratulations on that milestone. I guess if it still has lots of pad, why bother replacing. I have not really looked at the rear side...but it probably is easier to replace rear pads if you remove the side bags.
  19. N3FOL
    Awesome! You made your brakes last that long. I notice that the rear brake has lots more stopping power than the front or it just could be my imagination due to the air shocks. Good Luck on the install...I heard that it is not that bad to replace. Ride safe.
  20. N3FOL
    Glad to hear that both you and the wife are fine. If your tire did not loose the traction, I am pretty sure that you made that U turn with no problem. It won't be long...the bike can be fixed and you'll be back on riding soon.
  21. N3FOL
    Just curious. How long have your had your brake pads on your bike? How many miles riding?
  22. N3FOL
    After reading this thread, I checked my rear shock pressure and did not have any air in it after over 1K miles of riding. My '07 currently have a little over 1K miles that I bought brand new 2 months ago. I added air on the rear shock and now have 25 psi...I can't wait to give it a ride once the weather improves. So far, no squeeks on the rear shocks yet.

    Bob, Where are the Ham Related Threads in this forum? I am interested to check it out.
  24. N3FOL
    It really looks like a very nice product. For $12.95 + shipping...that is a good deal.

    Bob, Thank you so much for posting that video. I did not ride to work today, for it was drizzling a little this morning. When I get home, the clutch bleeder valve should not be hard to find.
