Pull tank and seats. Trace your wiring back towards the switch. The 2nd gen had some issue with connectors and wiring. Also the internal contact in switch itself burned.

Check the BRP site and see if they have a demo ride somewhere near you. I'm only 5'6", but the RT made me feel a bit cramped, although I will have to say the ones I sat on were pre 2020 models. I went with the F3 Limited. I know they make more adjustable floorboards and bars for these than the RT. Also for service I didnt like the idea of all the plastic to remove for access. I moved over from a Victory Cross Country and the steering has been probably the biggest thing for me to adjust to. But 3 months or so of ownership I'm getting accustomed to it. And having reverse is awesome.

2003 RSV Rear Brake Spongy to No Pressure
djh3 replied to LibertarianCRF's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I tried to vacuum bleed my RSV. Never got what I felt was a good stream. So I would bleed with the vacuum set up, then make a few pumps with the pedal nice and slow and it seemed to always worked good. -
WE are over by Daytona area if you decide to ride out somewhere when you get down here. Could meet somewhere in between for lunch or short ride.

My first glance at your pic I thought it was a BSA. If you dont plan on multi day trips I could see where its a good scooter. But then I also remember the days when a 650 was a "big bike". My brother back in late 50's rode a 500 I guess BSA from MacDill (Tampa) to Detroit. LOL MY parents thought he was nuts to go that far on a bike. Yours looks like fun, enjoy.

I rode one last year at bike week. I liked it, but like Don mentioned the toe shifter takes a bit to get used to getting your size 10.5 boot under there. But way outa my price range. A couple folks I follow on You Tube have had them for extended periods and seem to like them.

Looks good. Hope she get to enjoy it this spring and summer.

LED fog light and possibly headlight recommdations?
djh3 replied to Russ's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I seem to remember some issues when guys used the TSC type less expensive LED Par 36 bulbs. Something with radio maybe. As far as headlight I ran HID headlight and I found some housings that fit and had LED plug in type bulbs. -
Don ours are old er vintage SENA SMH 10. I can stream music, push a button and talk. They do have an option for the voice to automatically interrupt music and talk. But much like on the RSV intercom wind noise can cause you to have a "hot mike" most of the time. Pricewise I dont know where they sit now, and they have come out with some upgraded newer stuff.

When I close my eyes to go to sleep I keep hearing jet aircraft flying.

Also I would have to look it up but, I think it was early 2000 they had the Cat in one of the sides of the FL mufflers also. Somewhere on here I had posted the "good" part numbers. I think the tech section.

I'll pass on the entry also. But I moved over to a Victory Cross country Tour. It felt a little more stable and lower weight CG. Recently I have thought about maybe a BMW R 1200 tour.

Kind of depends on what your looking for. Do you want just a shell like the old HD or do you want something you can put a radio in? Matzu has some, you may have to fab up brackets no matter which one you go with. This one off ebay looks to have potential.
