Improving gas mileage...
CrazyHorse replied to 5bikes's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Your bike shouldve had adjustable needles to begin with. -
Not a bike for me. Like it a little bigger with room for a passenger and other amenities. i like the idea of an American company coming up with something though.

Here is something new coming out as a American V4 sport tourer. http://motusmotorcycles.com/statichome.html Looks like a little to much sport for me though. Its good to see an American product coming out but Id like a little more comfort though 2nd passenger also.

Carb Jet Kit
CrazyHorse replied to sheriff1112's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
There is no kit -
Looks hard to get thrown from it even has seat belts in it. I'm not sure if thats good or bad. Pretty wild concept.

De-linking brakes idea for 83

R1/R6 brakes will not fit the Mk1 the caliper holes are different. You will need a MKII fork. -
De-linking brakes idea for 83
CrazyHorse replied to dingy's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
I agree with Squeeze. I used new stainless lines. With the SS lines you can get any head angle you need to hook up. You have to measure correctly for the lines ( I used a string) and leave a little slack for turning the handle bars. I didnt use a splitter I used a double banjo bolt. From my experience I would go with the splitter set up too much clutter with the double banjo. You can take off the proportioning valve and hook the rear line up to the master direct. I plugged up the front line hole in the rear master with a 10mm x1.25 I believe and I had to cut that down because it was too long. I used R6 brakes and a GSXR750 front master cylinder with adjustable lever. I also used speed bleeders but actually filled the lines up with the old bleeders first because I could'nt get lines full with the speed bleeders for some reason. This was a personal choice for me because of my disdain for linked brakes. I know it's not for everyone. -

Does the 1st Gen have enough electrical power for all that? -
Seafoam might help......

You could put the 2nd Gen in there instead.

I use the flushable wipes. I feel much fresher at the end of the day. One day I figured why should the kids be super clean and not me. I found the flushable wipes and never looked back. Now if I have to use the tp I feel lost. Used them for a number of years so far no problems with the plumbing. I dont know if I would use them in a septic system though.

I'm just suprised McAffe actually found something.

I use the cassette player with the adaptor to play the MP3 player.

Texas being in the center of the country (dont mean actual center) where the jet stream bends down from Canada through the middle of the US can get some cold weather. More so then the coastal areas of the country. Florida sounds a little better now.

Congrats shows the dedication that few younger people have.

Dont know if you could really go back to that. My buddy who has a GW used to ride a Valkerye years ago. Thought he might like to go back to one was itchin for another bike. Test rode one and came back and said to me "what was I thinking I could never go back after owning a GW1800."

I'd consider it if it was a beefier bigger bike.

Reading the whole article it to me basically says the Current Venture design is old and needs to be updated compared to the other bikes. The whole carbs, cassette player, old type brakes thing etc. The same thing memebers here complain about. I doubt Yamaha will listen though.
