    89Max Running Ruff

    This is the first year I have ever used stable in tank. So hoping it's not a gummed up carb. Sounds like a lot of work and money to have them cleaned. But going to try getting rid of gas and new filter first. Thanks everyone for the help here will let you all know how things turn out.

    89Max Running Ruff

    gamorg02, Well my friend added the stable to tank. But I know he used the little guied that's on the neck of the bottle. So know he didn't add more then it should have needed. Was also wondering what type of fuel filter should I use for 1989 model. Is there a better or worse kind to use.

    I picked up a very small fly screen from Python it's smoke black and pretty much just covers speed-o but for $ 80 bucks think it looks nice. Get a lot of people who really like it.

    89Max Running Ruff

    Hey fellow maxers looking for help. Before I parked bike for the winter filled tank with high octane gas also a friend suggested using somthing called Marine stable. Guess its supposed to keep gas stable by keeping water from building up. Never tried it before so did it. Well today it was 65...

    Good Vmax Myth

    I heard a few of these same post about the Max over the years also. The one I always here alot are they were to powerful and killing a lot of riders. So after the 89 model they slowed them down a little. I just think maybe cops were getting pissed because they could not catch them on the open...

    Front Brake Switch

    Just wondering if anyone had had issues with front brake switch. I think I have a short in wire between switch and rear break. It started last year thought wire was loose or something because rear break light kept shorting out. So the only way I thought was to wiggle end of wire thats connected...
