    Describe "cheap"... my digital gauge cost $15 ... is that cheap?

    Keep fussing with it... it will come. Play with the angle of the cassette door a bit while at the same time, trying to pull the cassette out from the back. Mine was like this too. I also think you have to unbolt the top headlight bracket and move the headlight forward in order to get enuf room to wiggle the cassette out.

    Similar to a thread I started... http://venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=46451 After pumping up the tires using the new digital gauge, it made quite a difference in the way the bike handled.

    cool...thanks... guess what tho.... nowhere in that manual does it refer to or show where the oil filter is... can you believe that? (at least I couldn't find anything by either scanning or by doing a search) EDIT: guess I downloaded a partial copy as it wasn't even 100 mb ... now downloading the 300 mb one.

    yep

    Don't think so, plugs are showing black so it's been running rich. Battery was dead. Gas didn't smell bad. It's an '03 with about 55k km's. thanks

    Mine will be black, just like the scoot ... but I will be dressing it up some with chrome and some fake carbon fiber, similar to what I did on the scoot. I'll be doing base coat / clear coat and don't expect it to take quite as long as yours... I'll probably do 2 or 3 coats of clear ... let it dry, wet sand that down and a final coat.

    Hauled daughter's boyfriend's VTX1300 over to my "shop" today. Hasn't been run much for a couple years so am going to service it, get it running, clean it all up and make it purr and look purdy. Anyone know where I can get an electonic copy of a maintenance manual for it? Where the heck is the oil filter on these thangs? (I haven't looked too hard...prolly right in front of my eyes) [ATTACH]43612[/ATTACH]

    Fiberglassing all done, a bit of bondo, sanding, some primer, some glazing putty ... all ready for the final sanding/primer coat... then it's painting time... which won't be any time soon unless the weather smarten's up.

    Everyone around here slows down just to see what's going on... then it creates the "freight train" effect and before long, traffic has come to a standstill.

    here's a pic of a "G" basket ... [ATTACH]43528[/ATTACH]

    it's a built-in "excessive speed" detector ... had one on my '87 too. Yamaha thinks of everything yanno...
  17. SilvrT
    Must be more wrong with your scoot than a slipping clutch if you can't keep up with a Harley... :rotf:
  18. SilvrT
    oh no... here we go again... bobbyduck.. you just had to open the door, didntcha?
  19. SilvrT
    and according to another thread, it probably has a lot of Harley components....
  20. SilvrT
    Why would they be disappearing when there is 11 years production of the same bike??
  21. SilvrT
    Should be "incident-free" around here... doesn't look like the weather will be too favourable for riding. BTW... most get 3 days off this long weekend ... some, like me, get FOUR but it really sukz when ya can't go ridin
  22. SilvrT
    According to another thread, it may have some Harley components ...

    hey man, you did what I've wanted to do many times... and may still yet. I hesitate because, many, many years ago a guy was tailgating me and once he wasn't paying attention and had to slam on his brakes to avoid rear-ending me. I pulled over and let him pass... then I followed him home, parked the scoot on the street by his driveway and proceeded to chew him out... before I knew it, he was out of his vehicle and nailed me with a fist sammich ... of course a fight ensued but he was bigger and stronger and I got the worst of it ... I've never forgotten that incident .... hope he got the message at least.
  24. SilvrT
    Very interesting... looks great! Exactly what is the tire size??
