I WILL BUY YOUR BUBS, 815-440-0287 TEXT ME PLEASE

Sonny Rattan has been a pos that kicked several members off his page for the slightest mention of this group. and as the admin of about 9 of the royal star fb groups, please dont lump them all into the jass acks fan group.

The carbs were dirty and had 1 diaphragm that was misaligned causing the machine to run very lean. that’s where the heat was coming from. thanks to all. Mike

Thanks for the plug, yes he reached out to me, my carbs are still available.

You would be the first of many that have searched. I don’t have any used at the moment, but I know a member that does have. send me a email at the address below.

guess who the carbs, tank, pipes and backrest came from?? looks like the trip of a lifetime, i have enjoyed talking with them and hope to meet them along the route at some point .

been kind of quiet on the vr site for Diamond cuts? is everyone stuck in the snow banks?

glad to hear you have had a harmonious conclusion to you george jetsons spaceship noise. and you might even enjoy an even quieter experience as things get seated and you put some hot highway miles on it. Ride safe.. ride often.. Mike

yamaha logo between the motorcycles and the musical item may appear the same, however there is a slight difference. see if you can figure out what it is .? and Mitsubishi still makes fuel pumps for yamaha and did make every 1st and 2nd gen pump along with most every street bike pump in the yamaha lineup.

the part numbers are for the same part, the number has been superseded and the price increase accordingly. there is no design change and as Mike G has stated they were cut on a different production lines. Now that the rsv is no longer in production, we don't have the luxury of getting one pulled off the line to obtain the certain letter. they produce them on an as needed back order basis now and the only way your going to locate a certain letter now, is to have a parts warehouse guy open each and every box and have a look at the backside of each gear ring or learn Japanese and find better contacts than i have . or find a used one. $.02 Mike

Didja get your seat concerns worked out?

contact @Ausie Annie on here, she had a spring style extension put on the 07 rsv she had

I have been on the bi pap for 22 years now, i can't even get a cat nap without it.

Mike & Cherie

Don't think he is on here, and no way no how am i doing anything while it's still on the bike. that opens too many cans of worms thank you.

Got a chance to cut on a 2018 Yamaha star venture here are some saddlebag rails and a trunk rack

certainly not top heavy as the rsv, yes i have driven both

Call out to the folks in michigan! Anyone want to host the international rally 2018 ?

True as that may be, more times than not the crankcase being full of fuel upon trying to start can warn you of pending catastrophe and the same thing can happen while in flight going down the road and there is no warning other than the bang and the oil slick in front of the rear tire. my 2003 rsv has 236,000 miles on it with no end in sight, i took it to Canada last July pulling a trailer at above average speeds and the deepest the motor has seen maintenance is valve cover gaskets and valve inspection with no adjustments. i did not put as many miles on it this past year due to the purchase of 3 more royal stars. it's a sickness i know. btw i have never shut my fuel off unless removing the tank for maintenance. my advise would be to replace the needle and seats about every 7-10 years if it has regular use, and if it sits for long periods of time to use plenty of seafoam before you park it so it can get to the carbs and do some good. all of the fuel that is in the carburetor can still leak into the cylinder while parked with the fuel turned off....

i am to say the least a bit of a parts and bike collector of royal stars. and in all of the years i have been buying and selling 2nd gen royal stars the only reason i have sold/replaced the engines have all been for the same failure and the count is 6 and none while i have owned them. they have all failed due to leaking needle & seat o-rings in the carbs letting fuel run into the cylinder and seeping past the rings into the crank case while parked in most cases. then the owner finds it hard to start and ignores this if they do get it started and the motor hydro locks with fuel in an over full crank case and sometimes with fuel full on both sides of the piston. look at your oil level and see if it grows to a higher level and buy new needles and seats or send me your carbs and i have two sets rebuilt and ready to swap.

faucet washers are a perfect fit

Call yamaha directly and they will send the part to the dealer anyway

the replacement trunk base will come with support plates and new base mount rubber that you can use on the old trunk if you don't want to fool with painting.

While you have it apart... replace the needles and seats part #4km-14107-15 you will need 4. The o rings and the needle tip dry out and are the death of this engine. while you had the rack apart to get one of the float pins out, it is very likely that you got the throttle position sensor out of proper position. $.02 report back with 12 bucks mike
