Looking for a TCI
Yammer Dan replied to Dano's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Didn't we have someone that rebuilds them?? -
I know the feeling!!!

Progress???

The Warden thought that was funny?

How many greases are there out there with a Moly content. Is there something cheaper for those that get in there a little more often and regrease things? I've been known to put too much grease in there. They say just a little with the Moly and I don't think I would feel comfrontable with that.As I said I tend to overgrease.
-
Are there other Moly grease products out there or is this only way to go?

Anybody Need A PT2...

Oh NO LATE AGAIN!!! Just kidding Bob I don't need it. Have afew spares here and there. Was just wondering. I have spares how should I keep something like that? Just on shelf and clean when I needed? Would the seals in these things last better if empty and dry? Should I take time now to break them down clean them? Got a lot of parts I need to take better care of. Garage is coming. Warden wanting spare room back. -
Now that could nibble a toe at about the knee!!!

Like to enter her in the Derby??
-
A Blue 84!! Wish I was up that way. How many miles? The valves don't need much upkeep but sync is good idea. And Sea-Foam it. In the spring I use a whole can to less than 1/3 tank of gas. Put it in run it to get it in carbs good then leave it sit overnight or for a day or two then ride hard til you use up what is left.

Yep BLUE with a lot of miles out in the sun is the fastest of the 1st Gens. The others come in 2nd as in 2nd Gen!!!
-
A good running 1st Gen can get up to 50 mpg and still stay ahead of the 2nd Gens. The World famous "Blue Beast" had 98,700 on her when a S-10 took her out. Was still taking Dodge Hemis and Hardleys. They take a little tinkering now and then but what lady don't?

Not one day in the garage with the stove going this year. No wonder this winter sucked!!
-
Did I make a BAD mistake?

Just turn your mirrow around til it is facing to the front. So you can keep the 1st GENS in sight!!! -
Maybe you had hair on your head???
-
Thats what I was looking at!!!
-
I make the bike look good.
-
Nah, Its all about getting there first and looking the BEST!!

Should be no problem at all unless its a 2nd Gen!! Can't see it would hurt anything. -
Those old 650 & 750 Yammies coming off the line at about a grand to grand and half above redline..... Dump it and hang on!!! Good hot tire biting just right and you were gone!!! That V-Max would have been something. I probally wouldn't have survived. But what a RIDE!!! I haven't found the nerve I had before I went down the last time but I get spells where I just am riding without seeming to worry about every thing. Old Age? I don't know. I just want one more trip thru the "Dragon" on the "Blue Beast" The ride FrogMan, Mamamo and I took a few years ago!!! Dodge Hemi's don't want no part of a 1st Gen!! Wish I could find that Poem again. We have a Artist among us.

Nice looking ride!! All it needs is miles!!
-
Went out this morning and tried it. Fired right up!! Sitting there rumbling and saying "Get to Work. Fix Me. We Need to ride" Steering rack to put in Buick. Got to work tomorrow. But it won't take long now!!If I can just get time off.
-
Now why didn't I think of that?? I'm always wanting to help......
-
Does the wind dropping mine count??

They could be right. Last couple years have sucked. Getting to expect it.
