Vogel is 2 hours from my home. I looked at getting a site at VSP but it looks like the campsites are to small for our RV, is there another campground nearby that will accommodate rv's larger than 25 foot? If not i may just make the 100 mile ride on the mornings i want to join in the fun.

With the ramp I have, it stores below the deck, with an arched ramp it would need to be stored on top of the the deck. Apple Pie... what do you think the storage box up front is for? Sorry, no Canadian deliveries! Justin has the border sealed !

Here is my aluminum sled trailer that I have setup to haul both my 2 wheel RSV & my wifes Hannigan RSV at the same time. The trailer is 21 foot x 101 inches wide. Hauls both with room to spare. The only downside to this trailer is the deck height, I have to raise the nose of the trailer to reduce the breakover angle of the ramp or risk high centering the bikes when loading or unloading. I do this in a number of ways. 1) use the tongue jack. 2) run the rear wheels of the tow vehicle up on ramps. 3) back up to a raised section of ground to reduce the ramp angle.

Sounds like fun. I'll give it an early yes. Been in the area before and wouldn't mind going back. Not to far from there this weekend, we're in Paris, TN helping B2Dad celebrate his 75th birthday this weekend.

No Larry isn't making them any longer. I think he told me that he had misplaced the jigs he used to make them.

Well, this is clearly as definitive as "which oil should I use" !

Priority mail has no delivery guarantee, its only an estimated delivery time. If you want guaranteed overnight, 1 or 2 day delivery it needs to be sent "Express mail" at an increased cost. I was told this by a friend that works for USPS. I ordered so.e bike parts from a business in Georgia 120 miles from my house in South Carolina, it took 2 1/2 weeks for the USPS TO DELIVER!

I have had a front rubber valve stem fail while on the highway, it cracked around the circumference just above the rim. I was lucky in that it started leaking slow enough that i was able to slow down and get to the shoulder before a major deflation occurred. The bike started handling like I was riding on marbles or ice! I knew something wasn't right as soon as the handling changed. I will now only use steel one piece valve stems and check the compression nut often.

So, what conclusion did they come to? That you are the boss?

Don't know what is taking so long ! Carbon One and I did both our bikes valves in about 6.5 hours and we didnt have a tanker of coffee. Probably just the difference between USA time and that metric Canadian time,,, yep, thats gotta be it!

Stator replacement
ragtop69gs replied to Fasteddiebull's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
Since you are that far in, take voltage readings from all 3 legs of the stator (white wires). I don't recall the voltage of each leg , but you can find that info in the read only tech section. -
Any of you shooters into the Silencer/Suppressor world?
ragtop69gs replied to cowpuc's topic in Watering Hole
There has to be a medical exemption in the law somewhere. It's not like they can't get any prints. Have you checked with BATF about your situation, they may have info you are not aware of. -

Get with a lawyer and form a Trust. Move all the firearms into it, then have the trust purchase and register the suppression devices. -
Have a good time there. I'll be a little south of there in Arcadia , I'm gonna do my part and slay some wild hogs 🐗🐷🐖 in the Orange groves.

Happy Birthday Boss, have a wonderful day.

Or you can do as I did and install a set of Sonic straight rate springs and never have to put air in your forks again.

Playing in the snow got as old as I did. Was fun when we had snowmobiles, sold them so we now have no use for snow.

Y'all are making me jealous! We're having to suffer through a sunny 80°s for the next week. May have to take the rain gear for 1 or 2 days 😢

I have some very tragic news. This popped up on my FB feed just now, Kevin M. Campbell (Prairie Hammer), passed away yesterday.. His knowledge of these bikes is legendary. He gave so freely of his time and expertise to help so many of us with our Venture issues. God Rest His Soul and may he rest in peace. If you would like to leave condolences that his family will see, please visit his facebook page: [https://www.facebook.com/Prairiehammer](https://www.facebook.com/groups/572977006222420/user/100001306650761/?__cft__[0]=AZWISubKfGCnzjj9Hf6tO87xz9Lp7Uh6UfbAo3j29eqrzo1rxSPKisMnBFWrf5SAGdjLDWDgN3NWPDAYvzp00-5Ufw3I1zmxN9ZR_hjdv0WUpEw3n3etBpYyjVe-wRHbibCXpPFr-9nr8KcIFBG7qN7P&__tn__=-]K-R)

Prayer up for Earl. I'm all to familiar with his plight as I'm screened for this , it's a hereditary issue within our family.

Anyone running a 130 front tire?
ragtop69gs replied to RoTorKev's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I run a 130 also and it is a great improvement over the 150. In combination with my Darkside rear tire I'm very happy with the handling.
