Carl and his lovely wife stopped by to deliver my T shirts. (Thanks for getting that all together Don! (XV1100SE) They had to get to their daughter's but had enough time to stop in and have a cup of coffee with us anyway. Great to see Marca again....and well....Carl too I guess! Unfortunately they were in the cage so I couldn't ride with them....but I still sent them on their way via a nice scenic back route.

CATHOLIC GOLF Catholic or not you have to laugh at this one. A Catholic priest and a nun were taking a rare afternoon off and enjoying a round of golf. The priest stepped up to the first tee and took a mighty swing. He missed the ball entirely and said "****, I missed." The good Sister told him to watch his language. On his next swing, he missed again. "****, I missed." "Father, I'm not going to play with you if you keep swearing," the nun said tartly.. The priest promised to do better and the round continued. On the 4th tee, he misses again. The usual comment followed. Sister is really mad now and says, "Father John, God is going to strike you dead if you keep swearing like that." On the next tee, Father John swings and misses again. "****, I missed." A terrible rumble is heard and a gigantic bolt of lightning comes out of the sky and strikes Sister Marie dead in her tracks.. read on And from the sky comes a booming voice ...... "****, I missed."

Did I meet your Brother in Flint Mi. today? Went into a local dive today to get some tacos to take home (best REAL Tacos in the area) and a guy came in while I was ordering. I was wearing my VentureRiders.org tee shirt. When we both got done ordering he came up to me and said he was just down in San Antonio visiting his brother and his Brother belongs to the VentureRiders.org and has a tee shirt just like mine. We talked for awhile about bikes and how Flint has went to h**l and how we both want to move south. When our orders came up and I was leaving I noticed he was wearing a tee shirt from a Harley dealer in San Antonio. He rides a 1200 Sportster. So was just wondering who his brother might be. And BEFORE you say it Squidy, I know he's not your Brother.

The Jason Mod This is a procedure that was submitted to my original Venture forum several years ago. It was submitted by Jason Morris and thus...is called the Jason Mod. The following is the write-up done by Jason and it is followed by pictures that I took when I did it on my bike earlier today. Does this work? The reviews are mixed but probably 10 to 1 in favor. Either way, it is cheap to do and certainly doesn't hurt anything. As stated, you might notice a little bit of a difference in the way your bike idles. It's kind of neat really...kind of sounds like you've installed a very mild cam. Anyway, here is Jason's write-up. The theory behind this modification is simple. ALL engine tuners know that if you design an exhaust system with the cylinders that are timed 180 degrees from each other to dump into a common collector, there is sizeable increase in efficiency a.k.a. more horsepower. Well the same goes for a correctly tuned intake system. Just look at the V-MAX and you'll know what Yamaha did to increase it's potential. Simply put , this modification is a simple V-boost that works all the time. HERE'S WHAT YOU DO 1st GEN.1200 - Disconnect the YICS hoses. Then using 1/4" fuel hose connect the two left cylinders together at the YICS spigots(1 & 2). Then do the same for the right side (3& 4). 1st GEN.1300 - Since you do not have YICS, the connections are made at the carb. sync pipes that stick out of the manifolds.You'll need 3/16" fuel hose and a 3/16" vacuum tee. The vacuum tee is because there is a vacuum line connected to manifold #2(left front), which goes to the ignitor box. Remove the rubber caps from the other 3 pipes. NOW using 2 1.5" pieces of hose connect the tee between #1 and #2 manifolds and attach to their pipes. Then connect the hose going to the ignitor so the hose basically goes up(yes the tee is upside down).NOW using a 3.5" hose connect the right two (#3 and #4) cylinders together.>>You're done... 2nd GEN. 1300 - The only difference between the 1st gen. and 2nd gen is the location of the vacuum hose to the ignitor. I think it is at the right rear manifold #3. So the location of the tee would be opposite.RESULTS Quicker throttle response at all rpms, especially down low. More pull at small throttle openings allowing higher gear usage around town. You'll be able to redline the bike at less than 1/2 throttle in the gears 1st, 2nd & 3rd. Better gas mileage , usually 5 to 10% The only negative, a slightly lumpy idle.I HAVE HAD THIS MODIFICATION ON MY BIKE FOR 50k miles without a problem. Never fouled a plug. In fact my plugs were last changed with 25k miles on them, and they still were good! If your Venture ran good before, then it'll run great now! I could go into more detail as to why this works but lets not get too technical. MY DYNO results speak for themselves 93.2hp@7000rpm and 81.2 ft.lbs.@ 4600- 4900 rpm. You're WELCOME. I am at Americade every year and Hope to go to AMA Vintage Days 2001. Hope to see you all at one of these. Bye the way mine is an 1987 VR with about 60k miles on it and it was just dyno'd again this past Spring. Please let me know how well this works out for you-all out there. I know it worked well for my local friends. Jason Morris Now...here are some pictures and comments from my own installation of this mod. The 2nd gen. has vacuum hoses on cylinders 2 and 3 and plugs on 1 and 4. The vacuum hoses actually go to the AIS system so if have disabled the AIS system, you don't need to use the "tees". Look carefully at this picture and you'll see that one nipple has a hose, the other a cap. http://www.venturerider.org/jasonmod/jmod1.jpg In this picture, I have removed the hose and the cap...now you can see the nipples. http://www.venturerider.org/jasonmod/jmod2.jpg You'll need a piece of 3/16" fuel line hose about 2 1/2" long with two clamps. http://www.venturerider.org/jasonmod/jmod3.jpg Simply insert this short piece of fuel line between the nipples. http://www.venturerider.org/jasonmod/jmod4.jpg That's it. Repeat on the other side and you are done. If you have NOT disabled the AIS system, you have to modify this procedure to include a tee. Simple use the Tee to connect the hose that was connected to the one nipple into this crossover. Same on the other side. Don
