    Just to clairfy what happened with Dale's bike back in the spring. He brought it to a Houston MD and he and I found out the problem to be his linkage. He lives off a dirt road and it got into all the pivot points and made it harder for the linkage to move freely. We took it all apart, cleaned the corrosion and lubed it back up and that took care of his problem.

    There's an old say of Dogs have masters, and Cats have servants. Looks like your pics are proof of that Good on ya for taking the little one in, I hope that it brings you as much happiness as you want it to

    Never a problem Jack, I have a set of Bubs that I traded Red Rider (Jeff) for the stock ones off the '99 project I have. I like the sound of the Bubs and wanted to try my hand at repacking them also. I will go with black tips on mine, looks like a set of Reiharts. Let us know how you make out with the factory

    Like Todd mentioned from '86 to '92 all the body parts were interchangeable. Some of the electronics from '86 to '89 are different, like the TCI's, but for the most part, they are all the same.

    I think it was February or March of '05, BradT mentioned to come over and I did. I was one of the original trouble makers. I loved the comeraderie and the banter that we had in the early days. Not many people back then and many of us were friends from the Venturers. This has been one of the best experiences in my life. I have made more friends here than anywhere else, this is a VERY cool place.....Thank Don for putting it together for us

    Ron, If you can get some pics to me I can help you put them up on the site. I didn't look, but did you also put it up in the classifieds? Hate to hear you have to get rid of it, but your more than welcome to stay here with us...I think you know that by now. PM me and we'll get you squared away

    It's not common, but there have been some RSV's that had bad rearends. It's under warranty and have them replace it. There are very distinct sounds on these bikes that if your not familiar with them, they can be misleading. As mentioned by others, if the rear hub hasn't been properly maintained it could be as simple as dry splines. There is lots of info on the site about taking care of that issue.

    Just to hijack this thread for a second..... There is a saying that "If you plan it they will come" that holds true for the most part. I would love to get to the West side of Texas and over towards Arizona. If you could find a place somewhere in New Mexico and post up a M&E I think you might be surprised how many would try to make it....I know would BTW....Welcome to the forum

    I'll be doing that too, but I'll ride down to a lot cooler than that. So my winter vacation plan is to RIDE all winter

    Nice way to wake everyone up you old bugger! Good to hear your still mending up nicely, keep putting that wind in your face, THAT is what will cure your ailments

    It's good to know that it's excess I'm sure you wont have it much longer as they seem to sell rather quick. Looking forward to seeing your "New" bike

    You are exactly right, this site started about the bikes, but has turned into a family. I too am a member of HDforums, there is good info there, but getting it is like pulling teeth. You just have to know how to tickle their ego's....such is life. Were glad your here, as well as all the members that call this place home. This is a VERY unique site and you wont find another place quite like this on the web. Don has often commented that this site has surpassed his wildest expectations. It truely is the people that make this place what it is, I'm glad that I'm here

    This would be my guess too, had it happen to me on my '86

    Sorry to hear it, another bike perhaps, or just the economy doing another one of us in?

    I will say that I have no reservation trailering any bike I own. There are some times when you want to get a hoof on it and run. 750 miles on a bike in a day will kill you, easier in a vehicle where your a bit more comfortable. Of course we will all bust eachothers chops about doing it, but sometimes when you get old it's nice to run in air conditioning and enjoy the trip a bit more
