NAY NAY NAY....... I ride a 1st Gen. Only time I tie it down is when the parking lot is full of 2nd Gens!!!:whistling: I really don't have a lot of experience tying down these brutes. Dingy's advice sounds good.- 15 replies

Stretching it out to a 50' pad and using all the play I could on the footers I got it down to 1/2 " out. This is going from inside edge to outside edge of footers where needed. That was my last measurment on it. Leg says quit and take pills. 1/2 inch I can deal with. Block will be hanging over footer couple of inches on one corner at this but I'm getting close. I can probally get closer. Should have dug up transit somewhere. Do they rent those things? Then dig in my brain to remember how to use it. BUT IT'S BIGGER!!:clap2: 50' x 18'

Yep that Earl knows a thing or 2. But don't believe a word he says when sitting around campfire....:whistling: I told you I'd get for ragging on me so much about my foot & leg that night Earl.The Warden still laughs about it.:think:

The two 40' sides can be measured 18' anywhere you want. The two 18' sides are 40' at the corners..:bang head::bang head:

De-linking brakes idea for 83
Yammer Dan replied to dingy's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
And thats what it is all about. There is not a cut and dried answer to this one for everybody but we can chop it up and have fun with it and I didn't see any blood!! -
Maybe....but don't think so in this case.

E-Bay Annie. Go to E-Bay Motors and do search for parts to fit it. I took a quick look and didn't see anything. Maybe listed different.

Where do you live?

Sharp Bike!! I live on this site er I mean in West by God Virginia... -
43' 10" ??? 19 " out with diagonals of 43' and 44' 7" Divide the difference and that is pretty close to 43' 10". 43' 9 1/2" & 43' 9 1/2. I know what is needed just can't move that concrete. That would make it sprung only 4 3/4" on each corner or 2 3/8s" depending on which eye you were looking with. It is hard to do without a transit but all these guys seem to think I need to rework the whole thing. My footers are anywhere from 14" to 18" wide. Couple spots 20" wide. He couldn't dig in a straight line. A block is only 8" wide. I hate to tell these guys that are supposed to know what they are doing that if they can't wiggle that thing in there they don't know what the F*** they are doing but...... I know it is hard to picture what I'm saying here and pics wouldn't help but I have beat myself up for what 3 weeks and the dam thing can be made to work. The Hell with all of them!!! I can add 2x2 and I learnt "Old School" when you had to make do with what you had!!

De-linking brakes idea for 83
Yammer Dan replied to dingy's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
That Front set I got a while back for "Ugly" look like new. Need to add a back one to match them up I guess. -
If everybody would go flush a extra time that might raise the water level and it would run Down Under faster!! Well it sounds like it might work...:whistling:

9 & 1/2 inches out. Don't seem like much but hard to cover up. Still trying to find someone that wants to work.

I like the feel of my linked ones on the 86. Need to upgrade 85 a little but they will stay linked. Now if I could get ABS.... -
