Squidley replied to Jethroish's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
Your doing good there George, wish I could say the same, 4 months and 9300 miles for me here -
It's good to hear that you folks Voted I am proud to say that Lonna and I did also. took me about 10 minutes and Lonna was about 20, we voted at different times. Had good feedback and the polling place, said that 1st thing this morning the line was wrapped arouind the building. I agree with Owl too, no matter how you vote, just do it!

Nah...I'm cool with it, I have to say that getting this Tat wont be any worse than some of the pain my back has been putting me in lately. I am getting excited though, I always love to hang around with you folks BTW FWIW we are leaving Pontiac from my work on Thursday afternoon and staying in Columbus at a friends house then driving all the way to NC and spending the night somewhere there on Friday and Saturday nights. I sure do wish we had more time to stay and visit...but I'll take what I can get

You also have several timing advancements that can be dialed in with it. This will help you out in all the RPM ranges, I know that I am planning on getting one before next years season starts.

Tim, Here is write up I did on how to run a permanent line for an MP3 player or GPS hook up. You'll just have to decide where to put the device on the bike. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=3905

You bet....gives a bit more insight on that member, I have to say that yours makes me laugh my butt off. Like metioned above...how is Mom doing, still think about you folks often

Alternator is called the stator on the bike, it's on the left side lower forward engine case.

Buy It!

It's funny that this has been mentioned, I have never been real happy with any of the Ventures charging systems. This is totally off topic, but I stopped at a local H/D dealer to ask them what the new H/D touring bikes put out.....45 amps! Yamaha is starting to not impress me all the time here with some of the numbers. As mentioned there are upgrade stators that can be installed, and the RSV is a great machine. But you might have to limit how much heated clothing you use

Good work GW...and thanks for remembering me with the pics, I hope to see that machine soon.

I really don't think you'll regret it Craig, if you dont like it, you can take it off and sell it for what you have in it. It really wakes the bike up with raising the rev limiter, you remember how you used to push your 1st gen to 8K on the tach

Replacement wheels for my Harbor Freight trailer.
Squidley replied to Monsta's topic in Trailer Talk
Ken, Call them up and they will sell you the rims, I did this as I couldn't find any chrome rims like them on the net. I will warn you though, they are just cheap metal from China, so you will have to keep them clean and protected to keep them from corroding, especially in Hawaii and the salf water -
Switch, I can appreciate where your coming from with your statements, but all of the Moderators here KNOW that when we start to get into hot topics they ALWAYS go bad. I can't remember 1 time (and I have been on this site for going on 4 years) where threads weren't delete because folks get all ticked off because there pride gets hurt. I can tell you for 2 of us (Don and Myself) and more than likely all the other Moderators are very passionate about whats happening in politics and other hot topics. We never bring it to the site as we know exactly where it will end up. We both have VERY STRONG views but dont bring them here. There are a million sites on the internet to discuss various topics, and if you go visit them, they are huge ***** sessions where folks are at eachothers throats. The Moderators here are dead set against having that happen here, so unfortunately, your not going to get those discussions here. The internet is a very bad place to have discussions as you can't hear the tones of folks and that usually leads to people taking things the wrong way. Some folks dont come down fast when their feathers are ruffled, and that only builds anamosity on the site. We appreciate all the folks that frequent here, and if folks decide at a M&E or rally to discuss gun control or politics at an event face to face, that is their right. But I can tell you that at any of the events, folks usually aren't talking about anything like that. I'm glad you decided to frequent the site some more, this place is somewhat addicting.

Replacement wheels for my Harbor Freight trailer.
Squidley replied to Monsta's topic in Trailer Talk
Ken, Get ahold of Piggy Backer trailers as they have the chrome rims that they put on their trailers and sell them separately. I bought 3 of them for my diamondplate trailer and I bought them for $40 apiece. Check them out before you jump on the ones from HF. -
Problem with my Clairon CD layer
Squidley replied to a topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I agre with Don here, CD player takes up too much valuable packing space and you can get hundreds of CD's installed on an MP3 player, I dont think I would try to fix it very hard- 5 replies

Couldn't get the pics to load, but having some extra parts isn't necessarily a bad thing on a 22 YO bike
