Just picked me up one of these and will be installing it. If I recall right, I need to make sure I've got additional resistors in the front as well since I have LED's up there as well so that the flash rate is correct.

I just purchased this Ballistic battery on amazon.com for $159.95 free shipping. http://www.amazon.com/Ballistic-Performance-Evo2-Battery-100-012L/dp/B0068EQT7A I like this over the shorai as it has a warranty and the shorai didn't state anywhere that it did. I did use the tool at...

The easiest way to get the effect your looking for with a foggy lens is to use a diffuser inside the lens. This will spread out your light pretty evenly. There really are so many different options of high powered LED's to use nowadays. I looove LED's.

Just had to share. I've seen a Vmax that had almost as much chrome, but not quite as much. I'd think the disadvantage being bright days means blinding driving.

Can you just bypass the switch? Wouldn't that be easier than trying to hunt down the relay and rewire that?

I know this is an older thread (3 months old now) but I have to throw my $.02 out there. The main advantages of a Lithium battery over a traditional lead acid (be it sealed or not) is as follows: 1. most obvious is weight. Much, much lighter than Lead acid. 2. longevity. Traditional lead...

You'll have to let us know how it works.

Uhm, one thing to note is that a Lithium battery while under load is actually going to INCREASE CCA as it heats up (to a certain point) This means you can crank that starter for longer than you can a Lead acid battery. I personally don't know anything about that particular LA battery but was...

Got my new'ish footpeg for my bike to replace the one that was broken. I can finally ride the bike again without my foot dragging beside the bike... although this peg doesn't line up exactly right so it will be a little awkward until I get used to it. Looking forward to riding with confidence...

Ooh now that would be cool. How much we talkin here Sean? would you like some better shots of the scratches?

if you mean a model that came without a V-boost from the factory, then no. This bike has a Stage 7 kit installed. The previous owner got rid of the V-boost and I'm in the process of paying off a replacement set.

I won't be PC'n the scoops. If it comes down to that, I'll sell the scoops and buy new ones. Not saying there's anything wrong with powder coated scoops, just not fer me.

Ahahaha figured someone would see that. I don't plan on messing with that until I put all the V-boost butterflies and such back where they belong, but FIRST I need to buy some. I'm not overly concerned about leaking there for one season. :)

I never considered filling in the scratches. I wouldn't like to go that route as I love the silver look and was even considering going so far as to polish it all the way down to a chrome like look. I once saw an entirely chromed V-max and thought that it was the sexiest thing on the planet...

OK, I dumped the bike. Damage was pretty minor overall, but I've got some questions in regards to repair of the motorcycle parts that were damaged. I scraped up the faust scoop a little bit and need some recommendations. is it better to repair (sand and polish out the scrapes) or to replace...

updated OP with more updates changed to 6 on low for running lights, and 6 on high for flash. circuit is included.

Yes it's 3 on and 3 for the turn signal. Once I find a dual output LED driver, I"ll swap it for that so that I can use all 6 for turn and all 6 at a lower power for driving lights. I took my unit and compared it to a Harley's light and it was essentially the same size. Fit perfectly. This is...

OK, so in order to make this work flawlessly, I ended up replacing the flashing resistor to a 14Ohm resistor which drives the flashing LED's at 500ma instead of 350ma. I pulled the stock bulbs, smashed them, and soldered in the wires for all the LED's. The resistor bunch goes to the ground on...

What self canceling feature? Or rather I should say, mine doesn't self cancel or I'm doing something wrong and it's a stock relay. On another note, HOLY FREAKING CRAP THOSE STOCK RELAYS ARE EXPENSIVE!

well, the all lights flashing issue is a completely different issue and requires the Diode mod in the instrument cluster to fix that. I'm curious if I have to install a load resistor in conjunction with the flasher relay to fix the fast blink issue. I can't see the point in installing the load...
