interesting single swingarm front.... I'd never seen one of these.

I have a 7,000 btu kerosene wick heater in my garage.

Thanks. I ordered mine. I wonder if the new 1600cc Fuel injected venture will be the December 2010 picture of the month?

Molson secretly bought LoneStar Beer and has actually been bottling their lager in Texas. Its fun to hear the Texans say eh with a southern twang.

Welcome Frank, You'll love it I'm sure. Yep, that V4 is a great engine. There's going to be a Meet & Eat near Jacksonville in the spring for Georgia and Florida riders, plus others in the SE if you can make it. Pics.. got to post some pics when you can.. RandyR

It'll be gone tommorrow I expect, like a bad relative. Unlike the **** some of our friends get that stays for 5 months which you might not be so happy to see. That cold/storm front is supposed to pass thru Georgia Saturday with the same forecast here.

I was just posting the news, since this happened locally and is in an area where many of us ride (near Vogel and Helen). Just wanted to remind everyone to ride safe and be observant, because the unexpected does happen.

yesterday's paper held a followup story. my synopsis of the news story. Following the dismissal of the case by the grand jury on criminal charges, the family of the biker obtained a lawyer and sued the State on civil grounds. The lawyer argued that if you or I had caused this death in this manner, we would be in jail for manslaughter. They won their lawsuit and the State of GA has paid the family an undisclosed settlement. The newspaper article states that GA has a 1 million dollar cap on state paid civil claims.

onions? well I need to make sure McDonalds doesn't put any onions on my dogs cheeseburgers in the future.... Thanks for the alert. I eat several boxes of raisins on my cereal each year.

I've found most of the dealers in this area friendly and with a good stock of motorcycles and parts. Closest is a Motoguzzi/Aprilia dealer; if I were to buy another MC now I would likely buy one of the NOS Guzzis he has some great deals on, also a good selection of accessories, and large selection of used bikes of all makes, also has a snack bar/ice cream shop with a cafe' on premise and a tire store out back where I'll be buying my tires and installation going forward. There are 4 Yamaha dealers within a 40 mile radius so I can find just about anything I want, including Ventures, but they don't discount much around here, I'm in the corridor between Atlanta and the mountains, with lots of bike traffic and business is good despite the prices. The mechanics at the nearest Yamaha dealer Moto400. about 10 miles away seems to have knowledgeable mechanics and a friendly parts dept with a good stock(so far).

adhesive backing and requires a hole drilled in the mounting surface... My experience with adhesive backed MC accessories is that the adhesive lasts about 2-3 years in the Georgia summer heat.

Thank you for your service to our country. come home safe.

Electronic speedometer
RandyR replied to Woody2shoes's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
Its on the rear pumpkin. I don't think the hole is there on the 1st gens. See the RSV maintenance PDF in the library. -
Dan will be trying to figure out how he can put one in a 1st gen frame...

Rode about 100 miles sunday. It was in the upper 60's fahrenheit. I'm in north Georgia, not far from Vogel. We do get several snows, but it usually only stays around for a few days at a time then there will be a few days of near 50F where I'll get out and ride a bit. The downside is I have to drive quite a ways to find good skiing...
-
I saw it too. Looks like a good bike. The next bike I buy though will need to be one that gets 50 miles per gallon of regular gasoline at 75mph, bags, trunk, frame mounted fairing, adjustable windshield, seat height not to exceed 30 inches, comforable to ride 12 hours a day on either highway or 2 lane twisties. cassette player optional.. I don't need a bike with a 170hp engine, just one that will pass safely and quickly on the US 2 lane roads.

RSTD Exaust tips- 2006
RandyR replied to GOINtoHELL's topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
Bottom line. They should come with the new RSTD you are buying. -
http://www.davismotorcyclerally.com/ 2010 Davis Rally next September on the 10th, 11th, and 12th, in New Hampton, Iowa! This dovetails with the VR West Rally at Durango CO that is being planned. Might make for a fun trip in 2010

be wary of some user review web sites. Mostly the only people who post are those having problems, those who don't have problems are busy doing other things.

mend fast.... July will be here soon..
-
Hmm.. guess my monitor's color needs adjusting. Its shows up as blue on my screen.
-
looking forward to seeing your new wing at one of the M&E's...

its an 07 model year RSV, not an 08.

I was going to guess that it was RoyalstarJack's 07 that he dropped in the rain not too far from Canton last month. But the ebay ad doesn't say anything about salvage title.
