never seen one barn from Nh to Fl Il point back to the original original poster "Targets must be fairly generic so that anyone can hit them with a little effort." seems to be the reason the thread has been dead

seems evereyone forgot the OP's basic rules. Targets must be fairly generic so that anyone can hit them with a little effort. No targets like, you, your bike, and the Golden Gate bridge for instance.. A more suitable target would be - you, your bike, and a truss style bridge.

I installed a sony marine unit and the cd skips i never use it though with having a ipod and XM satalite reciever built in. the newer sony marine units have built in inputs for i pods. to control it here is a write up i did on the install and pics MY stock stereo was giving me trouble. seemed after it got hot the left side would start crackling, poppint and cut out 1/2 way and all the way. I pulled it out and sent it off to Sierra in OH reluctantly just before Thunder by the Bay in Sarasotta so i missed the weekend event http://www.venturers.org/Forum/images/smiles/icon_cry.gif but i looked forward to getting it back and ended my troubles. after i installed it i found out it still had the same trouble. They told me I could Ship it back and they would look into it some more. but i had already spent ovenight shipiing and ther repair fee i didnt fell great about paying to ship it again and wondering if it would be ok after installing it again. So i tole it all out again and bought a marine Sony system a cdx fm 50 sony cd player. http://www.crutchfield.com/p_158CDXR30M/Sony-CDX-R30M.html?tp=1721&tab=essential_info I bought it at West marine and wanted the sony RM X55 marine remote but they were out of stock and not due for a week or 2 so i found one at Crutchfield.com I removed the srstock reciever and power amp from the stock mountinf bracketttt and cut and reformed it to accept the Sony mouning piece. this i riveted on so the sony unint had room to slide into tit stillas a bolt would not have clearance for it to slide in. After a little trimming with a dremmel of the plastic dash pieces to reomve the excess plastic on the bottomside to make clearance with the new stereo it fit fine and i bought a black plastic storage box at walmart and cut it to fit into the square ressed section that the stock stereo display used to be. the remote works all the funtions of the sony and a satalite reciever can also be linked to it if i like. Im not planning on useng the cd player as ive got my I pod nano. the only thing is i dont have the noise mike like b4 to raise the volume gutted dash http://www.venturers.org/Forum/memberuploads/mvc_747s_126.jpg altered the stock mount http://www.venturers.org/Forum/memberuploads/mvc_748s_478.jpg New mount in place http://www.venturers.org/Forum/memberuploads/mvc_749s_138.jpg in the dash http://www.venturers.org/Forum/memberuploads/mvc_750s_135.jpg head installed http://www.venturers.org/Forum/memberuploads/mvc_755s_197.jpg\ sony remote controler on dash http://www.venturers.org/Forum/memberuploads/mvc_757s_223.jpg Then i went with Polk 105 peak watt 4" speakers and bass blockers http://www.crutchfield.com/S-b826CDSyffM/App/Product/Item/Main.aspx?g=51200&tab=essential_info&i=107DB400 http://www.electricalconnection.com/audio/amp-accessories.htm http://akamaipix.crutchfield.com/products/2005/107/h107DB400p.jpg

Sidestand kill switch

Ok so sence i bough my bike a couple year ago now, the sidestand kill switch hasnt worked properly. If the bike is running clutch in and in gear if the stand is lowered it sounds like one or two cylinders cut out but the motor still remains running. Ive nevr had a problem but the other day i got caught out in a severe downpour, i could hardy see no plce to stop so i c made it on home about 3 miles. when i turned left onto my road the motor died. it started up ok but dd it again on my driveway. started ok and pulled in out of the rain.I rode her again (dry) no trouble. do you think there may be trouble in the switch getting wet and grounding? dont think its in the steering as ive turn hard bolth left and right without this happening,. only the other day when it really got wet. ive rode in the rainm even tonight light rain no trouble again

The best stuff out there Is 210 plastic cleaner and polish. it made for aircraft windows but you can find in in most marine stores also.

MikeM8560 replied to jryan's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
When I bough mine I found the last owner had wire tied the spare to the frame behind a cover. you said maybe needeing a wrench to get to it. My bike I would need the key to open the luggage to get the wrench.
