mine came with what look to be the same rear shocks -- replaces with the progressive 444 and made a world of difference.

yep ... that's the maker. Thanks. from their web page, looks like I'm a decade too late :-(

wondering if anyone knows who makes the fairing in this clip. found the picture on-line, and am intrigued for the daily driver. Have searched high and low but can not find this fairing on-line, has upper and lower and is frame mount. I like frame mounted fairings. Please shoot me a link or...

thanks fuzzy!!

Thanks big A. I'll look into him

it is a 02, that overall is in pretty nice condition. does not look abused, just some deferred Maintenance. I don't know what parts they used. They said they ordered "new seals". When it leaked after getting it back the first time, the owner said his helper put the seal in upside down and he...

Hi all, was wondering if anyone knows of a good mechanic for first Gen in the Edmond Oklahoma area. Its a suburb just north of Oklahoma City. I do some stuff myself but at time just want to get it done and pay a mechanic. lately tired to get the leaking front forks redone on a new to me 1st...

marauder03. Those look like Kury Iso in gloss black. How did u get them snug against the control housing? Did u replace the stock throttle tube?

Got the 444s. Off to the garage

Thanks Kyle, I think it is just taking a couple days for everyone's recommendation and my wallet to align... Just working through the 5 stages of grief😉

Thanks, is a volt meter anywhere? Wanting to keep eye on battery and charging. Also, is the windscreen noticably helpful for wind deflection or mainly to protect the instruments

thanks Mr Midnight. also -- ran a cross a couple shots of your bike -- was wondering if you have a portfolio of your bike pics out there somewhere. Looking for Ideas. would like to see your "dash" if you have a pic.

Hi all, jumping on an old post. looking for new rear shocks. not a hard rider. No track, no drag racing, just interstate and some tearing around the back roads and route 66 when I get the urge. I do push the bike in a straight line when no one's around, but not racing. So I don't think I...

Hi radioguylogs .. Im stripping off the clearcoat from the sissybar and probably the riser with acetone -- after I clean and polish parts up again with a rouge wheel and then mothers, what is a good clearcoat to use to protect the metal and the shine. I assume there was a reason Yamaha coated...

Those look great. Where did u get them. what grips are they (maker and model)?

Sean, old post so not sure if products are current. Gen1, need new grips, stock bars. Junk grips are china/ebay... left one fits, right one too short and leaves gap by controls. I think maybe there should be a collar for gap space but not sure (I don't have it at any rate). want something...

Firemedic -- thanks for the help -- milk and cookies kept me up, it was the fuel pump. Old pump was dead dead dead. was probably only trying to start on residual fumes from when Danny had the carbs on his test bench. swapped with pump from another vmax and it started right up and ran fine...

Mr Maxmidnight -- thankyou. Im going to have to dig out the carbs so I can check the fuel flow out of the pump. I appreciate the electrical trouble shoot guide. problem is I can't get the bike to start. so can't use it. tonight the battery was right off a noco genius5 charger. I ran battery...

fire-medic -- Thank you. I checked the pickup when it was cold (room temp) and fully charged batt (showing >13v and just off a noco genius5 charger). showed 101ohms (clymers says anything between 80 and 120 ohms is good). I got one good fire and then just cranking. voltage dropped to 11.7v...
