When I bought my Vanguard two years ago (made in the early 90's I think), there was some play in the steering. I tracked it down to a worn "spherical rod end"...
I'd love to have a copy of that too, if you'd kindly add my e-mail address to that. Also, there is (or should be) a file section in the Yahoo Groups where...
To All, After many years of pick-up trucks, trailers, and vans, I have finally worked out a transport for our USS custom made tandem (it is actually a 34" ...
I have the schematics of the seat and steering assembly for the vanguard. Not sure is this is what you have. I purchased my vanguard in 96. If you wish I can...
I have the model with the bracket that attaches to the frame with 4 long bolts, with another bolt for the steering bracket. I now have considerable "slop" in...
HI folks; Thought I would let anyone know here that I am putting the Vanguard up on ebay next week. If anyone wants a head's up on the bike, I will sell it to ...
Good information....thanks ! Geoff From: "John P. Ittner" <jpittner@...> Reply-To: ryanownersclub@yahoogroups.com To: <ryanownersclub@yahoogroups.com>...
I knew I had run across this u-joint system while researching USS before purchasing a Gulfstream (Duplex). The advantage of a u-joint is that it allows the...
It's not a factory one off but it is rare. I have an early Slipstream that was ASS that has been changed back to USS. And it could be changed back again to...
Hi Bob, Well, the work has been done more or less . . . not an answer to your exact question, but about a year ago I rode an ASS Slipstream in the Indianapolis...
Hey Bob: Saw this post. Why would you want to consider doing that ? The Vanguard was designed as an outgrowth of the Avatar to be probably the optimum for a...
Hi Paul: I imagine it could be done, but if you connected the handlebars where the stem comes up from the forks, I think you'd have an amazing 'tiller' effect....
Interesting. Before I could find an available Vanguard, I contacted Tour Easy and asked if they would build one with USS. He told me he would give it a try...
I have done zero research on this, but I was wondering if anyone had ever attempted to convert a Vanguard to above seat steering, using, say a RANS or Tour...
Hello Folks; I am selling my older Vanguard. I just posted a contact sheet of images in the photos section. I have higher resolution versions of the photos if...
Hi Billy: Looks good....and I probably had this stored on a drive someplace. Just couldn't find it quickly the other day. Thanks for sending it. I'll make it...

I got this list from the old ryanownersclub.com site ... _________________________________________________________________ Tease your brain--play Clink! Win...
The wife and I were just out at Longbikes, more then likely saw your bike getting built. We will have our frame back Friday, going to the T-bucket nationals on...
Nice to make this switch...and thanks to everyone who thought of it, and set it up for us. Can we get a full listing of who's out there, and how many of us own...
That's about right... Nobody's declared them 'classic' and 'collectible' yet, though. If that happens, their value will go up, not down. Kevin Karplus ...

Sorry for my mis-speaking. My fairing is just the front..I thought Zzip called that a full but perhaps they just call it a full front fairing. STeve ... ...
I though ZZIP only made a front fairing for the Vanguard. I wasn't aware that they had a full fairing. How do you get in and out? What does the rear fairing...

Thanks Kevin; That gives me a pretty good feel for the bike's worth. It does indeed include a full fairing from ZZIP Fairings. At the time I think it cost me ...
Are pictures available to see with fairing? ________________________________ From: ryanownersclub@yahoogroups.com [mailto:ryanownersclub@yahoogroups.com] On...
I've no idea what a full fairing should cost---I wasn't even aware that a full fairing was available for Vanguards. Custom items are worth what people are...
