I usually use the clutch lever to disengage my cruise, but if your switch is bad in the front brake lever that could be the culprit. Test all the other brake and clutch levers to make sure they work and go from there

James, If you can get an '89 VR trike in good running shape for $4500 I would be all over that like white on rice. Glad to hear you got out and some wind in your face

I would be looking at the coolant system on the bike. I have also run Rotella in all my bikes and never had an issue

Gary....I expect nothing less out of a Marine Barend, I'm just keeping Kreg on his toes wondering what I am going to do next

Another option that I have used over the years is Berrymans B12 Chemtool. Seafoam has priced itself out on my pocketbook too, too bad as it works pretty good. B12 is about 3.50 a can and I can deal wit that, I know it doesn't pertain to your experiment, but I just wanted to throw this in there. Dan, now we need to add a jr. chemistry set to that erector set for your boredom

Now thats pretty cool right there

Oh the temptation!

....but I thought it wasn't you that did it!?

Chris, Many of us on the G2 dont even bother having the nuts on the seat. It's not coming off when you have a 300 lb guy (like myself) sitting on it. Also too I believe that Rick Butler here on the board has made thumb nuts for them for easier removal.

Chief.... Thank you and all those that are able to help with this mess. Be careful and dont push too hard, loosing a little sleep is ok but pace yourself. If there is anything I can do from this side of the bayou just let me know.

I would replace the fuses to be sure, other than that it sounds to me like your on the right track. I'm sure others will chime in here

Got a proposition for all of you VR folks....
Squidley replied to mini-muffin's topic in Watering Hole
Seeing this is Mini's baby, we'll see what she feels comfortable with. If she wants to take the donations thats fine, if she wants someone else to, thats cool too. She might be a bit overwhelmed at the responce. We'll chat with her this weekend and see what she likes -
Be safe my friend and if there is anything we can do for you here in Texas just call. Enjoy the time with your family

OK Folks, Many of you know the shenanigans that went on at MD this year. Kregerdoodle (formerly Kbay) did a great job of punking me and embrodered "Cupcake" on me favorite Navy cap. You can all absolutely trust me in when I say I WILL get Kreg back, and it will be epic....but here's the question for y'all. We all know that some folks have gone through name changes here. There was the time that Black Owl turned himself into 3 headed dog man along the river Styx...or something like that. That one didn't last too long and he magically turned himself back into an owl again (like clash of the titans) So my question to folks is....do I really seem like a "Cupcake" to you I mean dont get me wrong, I LOVE Cupcakes! they are fantastic. I have no problems with my new name, and some are catching on to it and referring to me as it, so should I keep it forever and ever....and yes I am strong enough to be know as "Cupcake" as long as I am on this site

Because your dense!

Lonna and I were married at the foot of the upper Tahquamenon Falls in '97. That is a beautiful area up there and the ride will be spectacular

2- wheel removal system

Word of wisdom here, if you do this, and I have on several Ventures, is make sure that you put a ratchet strap around the centerstand. make sure and pull it forward so that the centerstand cannot collapse backwards and thus the bike fall. It's a pretty slick idea and works in a pinch if you dont have a jack or are stranded and need to get a rim off in the middle of nowhere -
Whats the trunk lid like, was there any cracks in it? I would be interested in that if Walt doesn't need it.
