    Thank you all! Yes, I switched the jumper cables by accident. It ended up blowing just my main fuse. I have been out for a few weeks so was not able to get to it till today. I was very pleased that after replacing the main fuse it's running again!

    Don, thanks for this info. I certainly can start there. Would you have a hunch if the main fuse would protect the system with what I did?

    Yep, nothing smoked and I couldn't smell anything burning but the motorcycle battery did spark/sizzle a few seconds before I realized my mistake. After I charged the battery and had it load checked before I put it back in and have no power at all. Just wondering if there might be a main fuse that may have saved me a bigger issue. thanks!

    Been a long time since being on the forum as I have had many great trouble free years with my 2000 venture. Well my battery was too low and would not fully turn over the engine yesterday so decided to jump it and did the unthinkable and fried my electrical. I have nothing. The battery is load tested and fully charged now. I know nothing about electrical but do have a friend who can help but not even sure where to begin. The only electrical work I have done was put the speedo-healer on it after I bought the bike. Would there be a main fuse to protect the system from my bone headed mistake??? Thanks so much!

    i was thinking about leveling links but don't know if i need them since the new shock sits higher. is that why you took off yours and replaced with stock?

    i just put mine on this past weekend and i didn't touch it. it seems to be fine the way it was preset. I did not get the heavy duty spring.

    got the hagon shock several weeks ago now it is time to replace. i did not see a how-to in the 2nd gen tech library. I must be missing it?? thanks, Larry

    I would give it ride to see if you detect any gear whine. i have the same bike and love it. the whine i have is at a specific rpm that i can avoid. i used the whine to get the price down on my bike.

    I just got my hagon shipped. Any thoughts (or tricks) on install that I should be considering? I did find the write-up regarding the works install. I am not quite sure how to adjust the thing so I guess i will put it on and see how it goes. Larry

    Well, maybe i should wait and see. I would not mind raising the rear a bit to see if it improves slow speed handle. I ended up staying with the normal spring setup. Thanks for the info! Larry

    Well, I finally pulled the trigger on a new hagon shock. Very nice customer service person! I think I need to try some leveling links too. Anyone have some out there they want to get rid of? Larry

    We use them if the trunk is full.

    nope...what looked like a three wheel is a car in the left lane...i had to look again!
  15. 22lyons

    The wife and I went down a few years ago but not on the cycle. We ended up staying in Key Largo and driving to Key West each day so I can't help you out with a place to stay. We won't try deep sea fishing again anytime soon since we both got sick. We enjoyed hanging out at the beach and at Mallory Square watching the sunset which is the thing to do. We would love to take the bike down the next time. We were down during the sailboat racing which was awesome.

    sounds like an interesting day. thanks for sharing. i would love to take a course like that.

    i saw earlier someone attempting to fit the goldwing shock which is much cheaper. Anyone know about the results? I am also trying to figure this out before spring.
  19. 22lyons
    I have a puddle of oil on my garage floor as I wait for spring so i too am interested in hearing.

    When i had my old goldwing and my silverwing i was on this site all the time. main focus is the goldwing but you will find someone who can help. It is a great site. Larry http://www.goldwingfacts.com/forums/

    i will be interested in hearing because my shock just began leaking a few months ago. let me know what you find out. Larry

    Larry and Joyce know that our prayers are with you! Peace and blessings, Larry

    totally agree about the voyager regarding the bags. they were way too flimsy for me. rode the victory and liked it but was way too hot for me. i still think the ultra classic is my favorite ride/feel over the venture but all around enjoy my venture!

    i would not drill due to metal shavings....a simple hole punch does the trick.

    got mine and like them with the exception of it slowly losing air. took it back twice to the dealer and still can't find the slow leak. at least it makes me check the pressure!
