Northern Virginia - Wiring RSV for towing trailer
Squidley replied to Gamecock's topic in Trailer Talk
Ben, Do yourself a favor and buy a modulite brake light controller. The Harbor freight is a 4 flat connector, the bikes system is setup with 5 wires. The modulite is designed to make 5 wires systems into 4. They aren't that bad to install, I just rewired Tom in Blancos system on his RSV. I'd love to come and help, but your a long ways away. It's not terribly hard but just a bit time consuming. Iffin you want to come to Texas (or somewhere inbetween) I would be more than happy to wire it for free -
Craig, Disconnect the fluid lines from the sprayers on the wipers and then at the motor (be mindful that fluid might leak out from the spot at the motor) Take some compressed air and blow through the lines (dial it down if you can at the adjustment valve so not to shove 120 lbs of air all at once) Whatever is in there should shoot out and you can reconnect the lines. If you shove anything down in there you might further impact the stuff and it get worse

Sorry to say, but I dont buy any of the "Official Explanations" Whatever it was, it was very trippy and I would have been heading for the hills if I saw that in the sky BTW Mike...it's good to see you posting again

Jack, He didn't use our photo software to post his pics, it's from photobucket or something along that lines. It is a remote image and will be here no matter what. As a trial member you do have posting privilege, once it expires you dont

Use an impact driver with the correct phillips head bit to remove the retaining screws. You can round off the heads very easily if your not careful.

Hey Buddy, I'm not laughing at you...I'm laughing with you. Been there done that with my X's Pug, got it point blank in the face and we didn't have any of the new fancy stuff back then to get the smell out. We were in the house with the windows closed and heard the skunk spray her....man did that suck!

Auxiliary Fuse Box
Squidley replied to 91nwl's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Here is a thread that talks about both fuse blocks, Earls is a great upgrade and I would have bought his if I hadn't been doing the ones like I did on mine. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=35612&highlight=fuse+Block -

Well I have THE 1989 2 tone Blue Venture Royale, with the coveted Vmax motor in it!

Dale, The biggest thing with the HF trailer is to use a GOOD high speed wheel bearing grease. I'm pretty good at repacking the bearings once a year. All my trailers have had Bearing Buddies on them and before a big trip I would always purge old grease out and have fresh new in. I use Kendall Super Blu now and it works well, the one time I was trying something else, my bearings went bad....lesson learned. BTW I have pulled all my trailers behind several different Ventures at over 80 mph. A couple of them were with 8" wheels....you'll be fine

Thanks for the update Carl
