Mike, You can look in the forum under the Rides and Rallies area at the M&E section. This will have all the M&E that are being planned around the country. 2nd option is post up a M&E in NC and have one of your own. There is a saying here "Plan it and they will come" find a decent restraunt or Ice Cream parlor and set a time and date, it's really that easy

Help --- '99 Won't Start
Squidley replied to Highwayman's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I'll 2nd the fuel pump, listen to hear if it's working and I would tap on it to see if it intermittenly clicks. Did you pull a plug wire off and stick a plug in to see if you do have spark. Also wiggle the ignition key around a little bit, might be the switch is going bad. Fill in a few of the gaps here and we'll help you figure it out -
Good to see that you haven't forgot how to stir up chit Charlie

I have run the Avon Venoms for many years and love the tire. Problem is tires are very subjective to how you ride and the conditiond you put them through. I have heard good things about the E3's, but they are going to have to be spectacular to change me over from the Avons. You wont be sorry with the Venoms.

Gunny, Perhaps you didn't get all the air out of the lines. I know that I am still chasing some air in my brakes, perhaps another round of bleeding will do the trick -
Excellent news Curtis, now you have a whole lot of riding to plan

I need engine advise
Squidley replied to rjg1985's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Thats not bad, as long as they know what they are doing. I would also suspect that you might have to replace the valve cover gaskets as you have to pull them off to shim the valves. Make sure that if you have them do it that they guarantee the covers wont leak. Otherwise have them replace the gaskets before they put it together, or find out if that price is with new gaskets.- 22 replies

I'm not familiar with Mercury Sticks, but the ones I have seen are very long and perhaps that is something that it needs to be I have a Carbtune (I know not for everyone) and that works fine for me. I have heard of folks sucking the mercury into their engines and thats not good

That would be very unfortunate, but it just seems like Yamaha doesn't listen to us. We'll see if they even re design it....I'm not holding my breath on that one

After seeing the Kawi 1st hand at the bike show this year, I wasn't impressed. Definitely a different feel on that site as to him posting his thoughts up. I haven't ridden one and I know that the RSV has more standard equipment and a better sounds system with 4 speakers instead of 2. I know I wont waste my time with riding it, I know some of the Kawi faithful were looking for this machine. Sounds like it might not be what they were looking for

I want to take a few minutes and Thank EVERYONE that was able to make the M&E this Saturday at McRae's. I can't even begin to tell all of you how much this meant to Lonna and myself. Pretty much everyone knows of Lonna's and my plans to move to Texas. As much as we are excited to get out of Michigan, there is a bitter sweet pill to have to swallow, and that is leaving the people here that we care a great deal about. As quite a few of you know, Lonna and I were kept completely in the dark about the "Quilt" that was being made for us by none other than Marca Norg (The better half of Marcarl) and Robin Higson (Wizard 765's better half) It is a beautiful piece and something that Lonna and I will cherish the remainder of our days. Nice work to Freebird that sent out the mass email and helped the accomplices to totally dupe us. This doesn't surprise me as I have been on the planning end of some very secret projects here on the site The time at the restraunt was fantastic and the staff there took good care of us. I'm guessing that about 70 people showed, we had over 30 bikes in the parking lot and 5 cages. Of course after lunch/supper we had to do an ice cream run, which we did up to St. Clair and bombarded a small creamerie who was very thankful that I showed up with 20+ people. Then we went back to our house....and thats where the antics started up. My sister in laws beau while we were gone brought a triwall box full of wood to the house and prepped for a bonfire. There was the usual BSing and then the "Beverages" were being consumed, quite liberally by some. With all the wood gone and some very good story telling...."Can you hear them now Clarice" we retired, none worse for the wear, but very happy to be able to enjoy the company of others. Sunday morning started with it raining ( I wish the weatherman would get his story strait ) and the last stragglers from the day befores escapade loaded up and headed out towards their domiciles. Lonna and I can't remember the last time we had this much fun. I was so glad that everone made it here and back home in 1 piece. So to Marca and Robin for your tireless efforts with the beautiful Quilt, and all their accomplices, we love you folks. To everyone from us THANK YOU we will not forget this weekend for a long time to come, and for the conspiritors that helped in anyway with our wonderful gift....Thank You from the bottom of our hearts.
