  1. 14000 miles total on bike, Rotella 15w40 oil, Yamaha oil filter, it might not be 3 mins for the noise to stop maybe only a min or so.
  2. So when I start my 01 RSV and it is not warmed up I hear a ticking like an exhaust leak or maybe lose valves. But I thought the valves got tight with time and mileage. I have 14,000 miles on it and don't know if the valves have ever been checked or adjusted. So what could it be and what should I do? After about 3 mins the sound stops.
  3. So I did a PCW clutch upgrade kit on my last RSV what and where can I find more info on the SkyDoc's upgrade? Thanks
  4. I like that one! Sounds like you should use that to your advantage!

    Help

    Thanks everyone I guess this is a kinda common problem. I needed a quick fix so I went with JB Weld and it seems to be a good product only $5.20 and I reinforced it good. I hope this is the last I worry about this side!

    My right side lower cowling to the right of the rad. and blocks the wind from your leg. And covers the air breather. It is broke from the mounting bracket. Anyone know of a good glue or epoxy I can use to try and fix it?
  7. I have an 01 RSV and I could also if I took the rear fender off with out doing that I would like to know how you do it! Reply and tell me how you do it and I don't have a center stand either. Thanks
  8. Well I finished doing the rear tire change it was not bad easier than other bikes I've done. But I must say coming up with a way to get the bike lifted on the jack was the hardest part! I'm going to have to get me or make a lift adapter! New tire and checked the brakes and greased up everything now I'm ready to go!!!!!!!!
  9. I changed the rear tire on my RSV and it was a pain to get lift it? I saw this adapter on ebay anyone out there have it? Or a blueprint to make one like it? Or maybe one they want to sell? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/LOOK-YAMAHA-ALL-VENTURE-ROYALSTAR-JACK-LIFT-ADAPTER-/250880210107?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a69a034bb

    Earthquake

    I'm in South Central Va and it shook my house and pictures fell off the wall and off the table! Crazy.....
  11. So even though the tank looks full gas with in 1/2" of the top of the tank it is not full?
  12. Put me inline for the armrest please
  13. I thought I had a 6 gal tank on my 01 RSV but when it reaches the point where I have to out it on reserve it only takes me 4.5 gals to fill it up. Also what kind of gas mileage do you all get? Thanks
  14. I just installed a Clearview XXLarge Shield with vent and I have a reflection of the gas cap in the shield. Anyone else have this problem and did you fix it and how? Thansk
  15. Thanks for the info found the adjuster and now everything is OK
  16. I know how to adjust the up and down the know behind the fairing but how about right to left? Thanks
  17. Here is a link to over 50 pictures of my RSV 47 close up I took today. http://s148.photobucket.com/albums/s37/VictoriaVett/Yamaha%20Royal%20Star%20Venture/?start=all Get it out in the Classified. Thanks

  19. I have had several people contact me about my RSV the only thing I can say is if you are interested then get your money together and make me a offer. Offering an amount is okay I will look at ALL OFFERS if you have money in hand! Or I can sell with out some of the items like extra speakers, windshield, pipes etc. Money Talks so feel free to offer if you have the money to buy. Thanks If someone wants the bike with out all the extras I will sell them separately. speakers windshield pipes hand pump J&M headset Bike with out the above items $8000.00
  20. I feel that the price I'm asking for the bike is very fair if it were bone stock with no extras! So all the added items are a real nice addition to a super nice bone stock RSV! Take them or leave them but I'm sure the person that get it will be one VERY HAPPY person.
  21. I went over my RSV and made a list of what extras I have with the bike I will list it in the classifieds, Graigs List and Local papers when I get back from my trip the end of the month. I'll take $8300.00 for it with everything but the Sampson Fishtails, New Clearview Windshield, and Poke Speakers. Or $8500.00 with everything take a look at everything listed someone will get a GREAT bike and be smiling for a long time! I have been telling people locally so it might sell that way also Thanks Everyone! 2003 Royal Star Venture Raspberry Metallic/ Sand Stone 16000 Miles Head Light Visors Turn Signal Visors Driving Light Visors Rear LED Brake Light K&N Air Filters (Not Installed NEW) 1.5" Handle Bar Risers Chrome Driving Lights Chrome Front Fender Rail Chrome Trunk Luggage Rack Chrome Deluxe Saddle Bag Trim Rails 4 Brand New Not Installed Poke Marine Speakers Drivers Back Rest ClearView GT XX-Large Light Grey Tint with 5 Position Vent on the bike ClearView CT XX-Large Light Grey Tint NEW Quick Fasteners Saddle Bag Hand Bolts PCW Clutch Kit with Heavy Duty Spring Hope Leather Tank Bib with Storage Sampson FishTail Exhaust Like New Tires Front & Rear Adjustable Highway Pegs Tinted Lower Wind Vents 2 J&M Head Sets Like New
  22. I have used it before and will again.
  23. Nice bike but over 2 times the mileage of mine and I don't know how much more wear and tear pulling a trailer does on these bikes but it has to add up to something. That is a nice looking bike I agree! Not as many extras as mine and I also have Riser/Pullback ext. on my handlebars.
  24. Thanks V7Goose for all the info I never knew about the different places to check on values. That is why I have always tried to find great forums to be a member of and this is one of the best.
