    Don I didn't know how to delete thread. Found Progressives for 65 bucks but 15 bucks shipping is high for them. Posted thread before I looked at shipping. Don't know if I would pay that much. http://www.ebay.com/itm/83-93-YAMAHA-Venture-Royale-Progressive-Suspension-Front-Fork-Springs-Kit-/400267987146?hash=item5d31d4c8ca&item=400267987146&pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr

    Mountainer Gas bought out the little company we had here. Price has more than doubled in last two years. Fellow came by to change the meter out. I asked him Whats the matter the old one not charging enough?? He didn't care for that and wanted to get smart about it.

    TCI is under battery box and forward. Takes a little work and a flex shaft but those screws will come out most of the time. Just make sure you are using right bit and getting good bite on them. Easy to strip heads if you aren't carefull. If it has been moved it might be on top of Air box.

    If your 98 has the battery phrobe it is supposed to tell you when water is low. May have been changed out. Read tech library. Don't overtighten those shoulder bolts. read book on torque. Only 7 lbs I think??? Coolant as long as it is approved for aluminum engines. Use a good brand. Springs are really easy just be very carefull putting those caps back on and don't crossthread. Faring is not that hard to remove. Just get something to put your small parts in. Power outlets. Really just where they would be handy for you. spen a little more and get the ones with a good cover. I prefer the black instead of the chrome so it blends in with the panel. Yamaha now sells a tube of grease that contains Molly grease. I bought a tube of this but no reports on it yet. A lot of guys use the Honda Molly grease but they were out when i went after it. The Yamaha stuff is cheaper for more grease. Honda grease is used for rear driveshaft and pins. I'm thinking it or the Yamaha would be good for steering head?? Fixing the Tabs there are a lot of ways to go. I've used ABS glue with good luck. JB Weld can be good. The next time I'm going to try the melting metal into it i think. A paper clip would really make a tab stronger bent in the right shape around it.

    Grease that speedometer good before you put it back in.

    You must remove windsheild and trim. Screws that hold dash unit are on the sides of it. Lift out entire unit.

    Good one Jason. I replaced my wires just because they were 25 yrs old. The end caps fail a lot more than the wires do. Rick's on here keeps those in stock.

    There is a way to stop the oil leaks without pulling covers. But if you need to get in there to do valves anyway...
