I installed Ricks stator & R&R before the TN meet no issues till we leave the Hub in AR stator not charging by kuryakyn meter go back to the Hub chk and it's charging ? Left for home no issues but I hear the stator whine on the way home this morning started it in the garage it's whining really Loud in garage but charging good ? So I been reading Ricks stator will whine ? So do any one here used a Ricks stator and hear a whine noise ? Will tear into this weekend if I have time and see if I see anything ??

Mom !!!

Mike did mine as well and exceeds all my expectations how it'd look on Mavrick Looks perfect on Mavrick Thanks Mike for what you do for ST. Jude's children

Everyone of my buddies who have HD have blue loctite in the saddle as for me I don't need loctite ! . . . Because I use baling wire pliers screwdriver and most important part gorilla tape so you see I don't use loctite LOL

To me this is directed more toward Harley Davidson than the Ventures seeing that we run over more Harley nuts than yammer nuts

We be home 5:30pm longest day trip we've had dang this Okla winds are bad today took us an extra 2hrs to get home My face is wind burned and Pegs back is hurting due to the wind if we do this again I'm gonna trailer the bike back thru Okla due to the winds here Knee was doing great till I miss stepped hitting a high curb with my foot at the Okla travel center boy that @"#%* hurt but it's better now We had a great time and Loved every minute !!! Buddy & Peg

Never in my life would I thought I see Dan riding a Second Gen. Course I felt the same oh say 7yrs ago next thing I know I'm riding one and so much better ride too ! As the old saying goes Took you long enough lol Dang Dan looks really good on Silver A.K.A. Tweety Bird as Cinderlla called it Looking forward to seeing everyone !

Happy Birthday Walt !! Hope you enjoyed it and had a blast on your Birthday Day :fnd_(16):

I'm a bad boy I turned down Pegs volume see how long it takes her to notice it lol

Cool photos Rick but I noticed in the photos Midnight had two thumbs up to where Victory had only one just saying Don't forget your Wing that was some awesome paint work you did there

Everything you need for your bike is in the VRtech section click on First Gen. You will have everything you need for your ride list at the bottom is your diagrams - manuals you need Thanks to the family here for all the info we need for our rides !

Thanks for letting us know your ok ! As for Dan and his second gen. Like me if he can stop playing around with it and ride it

Hope not as that's an 03 model prayers sent to the rider and the family

I thought that was Eck he looked to relaxed on that lazy boy Very well played indeed makes me want to go ride Midnight Mavrick

Unlike the GoldWing low end torque these Ventures need to be rev.up to get the power band now the Goldwings can use four gear in town as for the Venture that's not possbile as it will lug hard ! Now at highway speeds the Venture is better than the Goldwing due to the gearing of the trans as the Venture is still in fourth gear say 70mph now you can run 70 in fifth gear if you want as it's over drive only and these Ventures purr in fifth gear doing 80mph as for the Goldwing owners some state that they wished it had sixth gear for highway speed not all just some I myself dint need another gear riding the Wing Goldwing doing 40mph your already in 5th gear if you so want as for the Venture 5th is not needed till you hit 70 or above big difference in trans gearing

Dint want to confuse some here this is NOT your first ride but your first photo of any of your rides sorry if I boo boo Here's a first photo of my 83 Venture # 208 off production Line wish I kept it too since it was the first year of the beast. I had the Venture over a year before taking this photo Hey Puc what number is your 83 Venture ? Look at the last four numbers of your Vin#

It can happen human error or mechanical issues Now as for B2Dad he was all over my asp in Eureka Springs I was dragging my mufflers in those switchbacks and I could not loss him! His trike stuck to the road like glue! I could even see him laughing in my mirror what a blast sure was a Great Day!!!

Most know I just bought my Midnight back that I sold years back And of all my touring bikes Midnight was my favorite ride so I guess it was a blessing And so happen I found our first photo with Midnight or the Texas family knows it better as the Mavrick So any of you have a first photo of your ride or rides ? In this photo I was 25 lbs lighter

Oh I made a commit about when I bought Midnight back some of the family I know and ride with in turn sale or trade off their Ventures so I said what's up and someone I'm not naming said I was mean but I was having fun So I removed it last night that's all so I have to say now what's up with some folks
