I was in Galena sunday afternoon... call when your in the area!

great to see folks open their homes to fellow venture riders:bighug:, and B2mom and B2dad are great folks to have as guest or host, as they have opened their home to so many members over the years. cool beans..thanx:cool10:

Orlin and Brian could meet at the Leak lookers ride in October?? it's on the Calendar:whistling:

where and when can I buy a copy of your travels Puc ? you have a gift with the telling of the story.

I have one from an 85 or 86 first gen that I don't think was ever used, but I have no idea what its worth? let the bids begin??

4k is the top for me.

You don't get to meet many yamaha mechanics if you own one of these machines.

Yes they do.

The 424's that your looking for are a Barons product. The wife has Barons Nasty boys pipes on her 2006 tour deluxe and likes them very well. I have the Bub sleepers on my 2003 venture and they are a lil quieter than the nasty boys. Welcome! Ride safe..ride often. Mike:cool10:

I have read the wonderful things you have to say about the new machine. However? I have a few questions that i hope you could answer, and feel free to take your time to investigate before a quick reply: Is the machine able to keep up in traffic? Is it fast enough? And about the color? Is it easy on the eyes? Bright ya know? And does the cassette player hold more than one at a time? Like a multi cassette system? And is it comfortable? Like between bar hops? Thanks in advance! Oh? What color is it?

very nice of you to share this with us Lewis! thank you. Mike:cool10:

the big twin clamps that bill has posted above are nice and chome too!! I like them on mine.

had same issue with mine and applied some dielectric grease after cleaning everything and works fine

??

be sure and post pics when you get it back!! I know it's hard to capture it in a photo, it is the fastest color combo!

take a look at the connections at the fuse box and see if the old fuse had hot spots at the contact points? I had this same concern several years ago and ended up installing another fuse holder because the contact points were damaged too much to use and kept blowing due to poor connection.

great for you both and cheers to another 33+

glad to see you back in the saddle pal!
