  1. I doubt it, my suggestion would be to buy some lens tape or window tint and put over the display.
  2. Welcome!! I have two 99's with about the same mileage, getting ready to sell one and I was looking at asking $3500 so I think you got a good deal.
  3. My long lost brothers. [ATTACH=CONFIG]103695[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]103696[/ATTACH] Will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
  4. Hope you get your parts OK. We received a package from FedEx a couple weeks ago for someone across town only thing similar was the house number. I looked up the name and called them turned out to be the ladies medication, I was glad I called them instead of FedEx it would probably taken them some time to have gotten it back to the right address.
  5. Thanks!!! I have cleaned everything out of my garage twice and all I found was an extra 5 quart container of oil
  6. I am still looking for a torque wrench I used two years ago when I did the valve adjustment.
  7. Did you leave the fuel on when it sat up and how did the engine sound when you turned it over?
  8. I had thought about going back to school and doing the same thing myself.
  9. Glad you are progressing well.
  10. In our thoughts and prayers.
  11. Can't find the post this picture goes with.
  12. Ran across this and thought it was interesting. http://global.yamaha-motor.com/jp/showroom/cp/library/yamaha_news_eng/pdf/index/192_YamahaNews_E_1982.pdf
  13. I take it your not riding with a passenger on the back either? You could weigh the trunk and add 20 pounds which I believe was the max load for the trunk on a first gen that would give you a reasonable idea.
  14. I would not feel comfortable with more than 40 or 50 pounds, 10 gallons of gas would weigh 60 pounds plus the weight of the tank but this is only my personal opinion hopefully someone will have the actual numbers for you.
  15. Not a big deal to change it is just little time consuming, here is a previous thread on the subject. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?100069-2nd-Gen-Air-Filter-clean-and-or-replace&highlight=air+filter
  16. Don to echo what has already been said THANKS!! for all you do. This is not a total loss folks don't have to look at pictures of my ugly mug in old post now.
  17. Nice ride.
  18. Well if you must. Congrats and enjoy.
  19. Thank you for all you did and wish you the best in your future quest.
  20. I removed my trunk and and relocated the CB to the left saddle bag and made a bracket that bolted on to the license plate bracket for the antennas. I did not have the removable backrest but I did replace the rear fender with a tour deluxe one to solo it out. The passenger Intercom connection is under the passenger seat so all you need to do is add an extension to it to keep the passenger capabilities.
  21. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency??
  22. Sorry you did say Silver its $379
  23. 479.00 at the PX and you don't pay tax.
