So Bridgestone is the Viagra of tire makers ? Just how long can they last ? Is it true that if they stay hard after 4,000 miles you have to see a mechanic ?

None of your other 47, or is it 52, bikes have a trunk rack ?

I had to place a piece of ABS plastic in mine and tape them shut to keep my legs from melting off in the summer here. I want to make an ABS cover to totally block them for summer riding. I have read here that there is enough air flow out the bottom for engine cooling.

I also have a set of bars off of an 83 you can have if you need them. -
I'm sure some of 2nd Gens can tell you how they get the rock chips, from all the 1st Gens passing them, out of their plastic.

I got my Carbtune in like 7 - 10 days after ordering it. I was out of town when it showed up so I am not sure exactly when it arrived. I have heard others say it was fast delivery too. Here is a thread about fast delivery: http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=69546

I had a set of throttle Rockers on my BMW. I need to get a set for my VR. They were great and helped relax the hand/wrist. Helped relieve the numbness and finger cramping.

So I received all the new gaskets and o-rings.... and all the leaking has stopped... AND.. I just know that as soon as I take it apart to replace the now non-leaking parts, "sumthin" (bad) is gonna happen...

So here is the best advice I have for you; Be sure to take two (2) videographers, placing one in front, and one behind you and those who chose to help you. AND... consider this a pre-order request for a copy of the video because I wanna see this !!! I smell a reality show video clip !!!

So yesterday I was looking for a box of stuff and found an old box of photos going back to 1975. One of the envelopes had the photos of my very first road trip on a bike. It was in 1977, I was 18, in the Coast Guard and stationed in Yorktown VA and had just bought a slightly used Honda 360T. A couple of guys and I were going to go ride to D.C. They canceled at the last minute. I went by myself. As the pictures show, I rode through Virginia and around D.C. Being a desert rat from Arizona, the sights and scenery were pretty awesome. I ended up at the Capitol and then turned around and rode back. As you can see... I also had my first set of "poor man" saddle bags...

newby considering a 1984 Venture
KIC replied to Archie's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Here is some information on the MK1. Also, a document on the information to check when looking at a bike. This was supplied to me from this forum and I printed it off and used it when looking at my 89. I also used it when I bought my 87. CHECKLIST for 1st Generation VENTURES.doc -
