    Did a search on specs.... best I could find are : 1984 XVZ 1200 (http://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/model/yamaha/yamaha_xvz1200td_l.htm) 97hp @7000 rpm (88.6hp @ rear tire) max torque - 10.4 kg-m @ 5000 rpm standing 1/4 mile - 12.6 sec / 165.0 km/h top speed - 198.7 km/h 2001/2012 XVZ 1300 (http://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/model/yamaha/yamaha_r.s.t%20venture%20s%2012.htm and http://motoprofi.com/motospecspictures/yamaha/xvz_1300_tf_royal_star_venture-2001.html and http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/bikereviews/searchresults/Bike-Reviews/Yamaha/Yamaha-XVZ1300A-Royal-Star-1996-2001-/ 95.00 HP (69.3 kW) at 6000 RPM max torque - 119.00 Nm (87.5 ft*lbs) at 4500 RPM, 111.8 Nm @ 3500 rpm standing 1/4 mile - 15.1 sec 0-100km/hr - 5.8 seconds (0-60mph 5.5 seconds) top speed 185 km/h Did another search and majority of the articles on 2nd Gens are for accessories, chrome, personalization. Same search on 1st Gens are "looking for parts", "worn out", "cracks". Granted from the specs that the 1st Gen was faster... but I've said it before and I'll say it again.... at least my bike was made in this millenium !!!!

    This is a thread I did with instructions on installing the run/turn/brake lights. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=63006 Not sure if you went this way... but if you did, hope it makes your install easy.

    Changing the topic... hasn't been discussed in this thread... Hey Don... how is the new guitar coming along?
  9. XV1100SE
    Way to go Don... you started a thread that touched on politics, guns, religion, and drinking !

    Eh ?

    Didn't you ever notice that the site colours are mostly blue (blue bands, blue back ground). Only red on this site is when someone posts a comment using red text. Don - does this indicate whether you are a Republican or Democrat ? This a subliminal ploy to convert everyone?

    How old is the jacket? They have a 1 year warranty. I don't think I'll buy another Tour Master. We each have one and the zippers don't line up 100%, stitching isn't very good. Had to take it to a tailor to have a couple spots fixed on mine (non-heated). Was just within the warranty but would have had to ship it to them or see if a local store would do something about it. Place we bought them isn't real close and wasn't worth shipping it to the States.

    I'd go in the order you posted. #1 would be ideal, #2 a compromise.

    Now that was funny ! Glad you took a cab home though. Beter to be safe than sorry.

    Good morning and Merry Christmas ! Had my kids (25 and 23) over for dinner last night. For me that was all I needed... but also got a Tim Horton's gift card, poster for the pool room, and a Home Depot gift card. Life is good... can get a coffee, play some pool and have the rules handy, then get more tools !

    You are right in that the comments were unnecessary when people were killed in the line of duty. Whether they are firemen, police, military, teachers, or children... should grieve for the innocent victims of violent crime. Beyond this... I won't make a comment on the specifics of the other posts. I'm biting my tongue.

    Sorry to hear the news. Our condolences to Jay and his family. Don & Nancy
