    Been there a few times and always had a great time. It is a vacation for bikers a getaway for those who ride. The event is huge and the people are great.Remember its your friends and fellow riders that make the event. You will remember the good times you have not the price of dinner. I suggest you go and see for yourself. Enjoy the atmosphere and remember at least your not at work !!

    Thanks for your help. I will look at the Elite 3. Do you have an idea of how long they last in miles. Also have you been to the Blue Ridge Parkway if yes can you give any info on this place, I would like to ride it this year. Thanks again. Bert:cool10:

    Hi I am replacing my rear tire on my 2001 RSV and would really like to hear some new opinions on what tires to consider. Thank you Bert:confused:

    Thanks for your help I might have to look at getting the strip lights since there is very little room under the tank.

    Hi everyone, I have a set of ELECTROPODS led lights and I would like to mount them under the tank. I would like to know if anyone else has used them and where on a second gen. can you mount them to light up the engine. I have the rectangular ones if that makes any difference. Thank you.

    Very Good. It only needs to be half a cup now.

    Thank you everyone for all the help. I just put on a speed sensor that I got from Pinwall Cyclle Parts ($19.95) and it seems to be working ok. I have not had chance to go for a long ride yet to test the cruise and odo. at least the needle moves up. I am still on the mend from radiation to the Scrotum due to Cancer. Again thank you very much for the help and your brotherhood. Bert (NEWFIE)

    Prayers sent. I know what he is going through, I finished my last radiation treatment last Tuesday. Stay strong brother, you can do it.

    I split the aux. output behind the fairing and ran the wire up the clutch side handlebar. I use a Ram Mount to hold my MP3 . The mount has interchangable cradles, one for my MP3 and one for my XM radio. I also split the 12volt accessory plug when I had the fairing open and ran a power supply for the XM radio. I also ran a second power supply to the brake side handlebar to supply power for my GPS. I split the 12volt accessory wire with dual 12volt plug in extension thus I was able to use plug in type power supplies for both my XM and GPS. I have not had any problems yet, did it one year ago. Good luck.

    I have used earbuds for a long time now ( SKULL CANDY ). I got my adapter from CYCLE GADGETS and I use an older set of JM headsets. The sound quality is great and wind noise is way down. I still use the CB through the headset but I get enjoy the better sound for my XM RADIO. Maybe if I had a better headset I would not need earbud maybe !

    Thanks for the info, I will look on ebay and I found the bracket and wiring on this site.

    :fingers crossed:Hi again everyone. I was nearly hit three times this week by cars changing lanes. I honked my horn but it is worthless. Could someone direct me to get a horn, maybe a STEBEL and how to install, any brackets etc.. Thank you.

    Thanks for the info Carbon One. I took off the fairing couldn't see any loose connections. Like I said there is no code showing yet still no speedo. I think I will try to get a used sensor like you did and go from there. Thank you again.

    Thanks for your help. I read an article on another website that tells of a self diagnostic built in on RSV. The engine light will come on when you turn the key to on , make sure the kill switch is in on position, the light will stay on for 1.4 seconds and turn off, with a defective speedo sensor the light will flash 4 times and repeat every 3 seconds. My bike passed this test , no flashing lights. Still no speedo.Tomorrow I will check all the connections I can find.

    Thank you for the info everyone. So far I took off the unit from the swingarm and cleaned it, still does not work. The ODO,AVC and Cruise Control along with the Speedo does not work everything else is good. Where on the back of the dash is the speedo cable (what color wire). Thaks alot!
  20. Bert Buckley
    Now that you mention it , I remember the volume dropped off and AVC did not seem to work , as far as it lighting up I haven't checked yet, and I did not notice the Odometer.

    HI everyone, I need some help. Today my speedo quit during a ride on my 2001 RSV. The LCD numbers are still there but the needle does not move up as the bike accelerates. Can some help me out please. Thank you. Bert ( NEWFIE )

    My prayers and thoughts are with his family and my he look down and see how he was loved by all who knew him.
  23. Bert Buckley
    I could not help myself I had to ask what is Motorkote and where do I get it ?
  24. Bert Buckley
    Alright, I admit to being dumb this time. Thaks again for all the help. NEWFIE

    I did not realize that the ignition key was the same as the trunk. The original trunk key was much shorter than the ignition key. I just put the key in the saddlebag and trunk and it works perfectly. The group of people on this website always comes through. I must say thank you to those who replied . Thank you. Bert (NEWFIE)
