I have a '99 RSTD with a 2 year old new factory rear shock. No matter how hard I try, I can't get it adjusted so it won't bottom out when I'm riding 2 up. This is the shock that sits horizontally so if the bike settles down or I'm riding and I go over a bump the piston comes out as opposed to a vertically mounted shock where the piston would go in. There are no markings on it to tell me which way to turn to adjust the preload or how much to turn it. Any suggestions? Thanks

I'm just curious if it is worth the $48 a year membership to join. What are the benefits, activities, etc from a member's perspective as opposed to the published info on the home page. What are your opinions? There are a couple of chapters semi locally here. Should I join??

Saw a car with one of these this weekend on my way to Canton Ga and got me to thinking. I saw another car with a similar one, different brand, but forgot the name. Anyone used anything like this as opposed to doing the harbor freight mc trailer mod. Just think of different ways to add storage for long trips as opposed to a trailer. Read some stuff on this board and other boards about bikes flipping over and such because of a trailer. http://www.stowaway2.com/ Sounds like the lowest class hitch accepted is class II. Wonder if one of those cage things would work better and then maybe a collapsable bag or if anything one of those plastic storage containers from like Lowe's. Just wondering. I would think with something like this there would be a constant strain on the frame, but curious to hear some thoughts.

Loud whine when during engine breaking
Guest posted a topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Hello everyone! I am new to the forum and to the VR. I have a 89 and yesterday it began to make a serious whine from seemingly the rear end when I ease of the throttle and the bile is down. No noise when standing at idle. It almost sounds like my tire was going flat but this is not the case. Just got the bike early this summer and really like it as opposed to the wngs I have traditionally ridden so I hope this is something I can get a handle on! Thanks for any help you could provide, -
alright team darkside- i knew a few ol skool bros who rode cts front and rear back 'in the day', but i am only finding very limited contacts that are doing this now (a few wings, valks, and rat bikes). anyone care to chime in... cause the dark dreams are increasing the regularity and i find myself sizing front cts. *if you are totally opposed to cts, thanks for caring. we all ride our own path. i am looking for feedback not doctrine - blessings,
