spark plugs and gap
Yammer Dan replied to Goofeychuck's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
Pre-made set on E-Bay goes for about 35 bucks. Already got correct caps and ready to go. If you use them I take a sharp knife and cut a X across the face of the wire that goes into the coil. About 1/16 th inch deep. Helps the wire seat onto the spike in there so I was told by a old guy that knows more than I will ever know about these things. I don't have the # for that wire set but it is on there pretty often. Anybody got it?? Found it!! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Yamaha-Venture-XVZ12-Spark-Plug-Wires-Yellow-XVZ1200_W0QQitemZ390093048579QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotorcycles_Parts_Accessories?hash=item5ad35b8b03&_trksid=p4506.m20.l1116 -
vibration at 70mph
Yammer Dan replied to Goofeychuck's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I run 40 front 42 rear for tires. 10 front 30 rear for shocks. That is a little high for front shock I think most only run about 7 or 8. Progressive springs in the front is great idea if you have very many miles. My scoot only has 24k and I'm still on orginal springs but starting to think about the Progressives. But i don't want my front end any higher in the air. It comes off the ground easy enough!!:rotfl: -

I use Autolite #4163. because they are cheap and a good plug. I change them pretty often and gap them about 32. I just figure if I'm in there and they are only about $1.50 each I just change them if they look off color any at all. Cheap maint. Change your wires yet? They are 10 yrs old. -

Margaret I'm thinking if you change the box ( a Good update) you are not doing anything about what caused the problem to begin with. Something is wrong with one of those circuits. Wait for Steve.
