died

If you followed drag racing you know who he is. If you don't, you can watch this movie, kinda like Shirley Muldowney's movie, "Heart Like a Wheel." It explains one of the sport's great rivalries. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1718898/

Battery died. Threw jumper cables on it, started right up. Take battery cables off, bike dies. I let the dead battery charge via donner charging vehicle for 20min. Got a voltage of 10.5V. I take it battery is toast? Cause: Left ignition on for 7 days.

So I'm going down the road, going the speed limit of 50mph when this knucklehead in his bro-dozer (you know the type, giant 4x4 with a crappy body lift and 22" wheels running low pro tires) cuts me off and locks up his brakes. Well I can't change lanes or shoot into oncoming traffic so I engine...

WHAT REALLY DIED IN AUSCHWITZ? Here's an interesting viewpoint The following is a copy of an article written by Spanish writer Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez and published in a Spanish newspaper . It doesn't take much imagination to extrapolate the message to the rest of Europe - and possibly to...

Well, looks like my Odyssey battery finally died. It has a build date of 12/04 so it lasted over 9 years. Trying to charge it right now but have my doubts it will take. As much as I like the battery, I need to find something less expensive but still maintenance-free. It is just too much of a...

http://www.dragbike.com/dbnews/templates/fast1320_z13.aspx?articleid=18175&zoneid=13 I never did business with the guy, but I know that he was well-known in the V-Max community. Rest in peace. I didn't see this posted anywhere else here, so I thought I would.

So this is not the first time it has happened but always under the same scenario. Sitting in traffic, bike overheats, I flip on the fan override switch and then the bike starts to idle like shit and if i don't keep the revs above 1500 or so it just cuts out completely and then is rough to start...

I took the max out to top off the gas, started great, ran great until I left the gas station. Heading down the road I gasses it and kicked in the vboost only to have the motor stop, dropped a gear and tried a rolling start, no luck. Rolled into the parking lot and tried to re-start. All...

So, I just installed a new clutch from PCW on my 86 max, and I take off down the road for the maiden voyage for this riding year. I get about 2 miles down the road (it's in 3rd gear), and the bike simply loses all power on every level. When I turn the key on, there is no fuel pump song, no...

I was riding to work this morning, I had gone about 12mile when all of a sudden the bike shut off, not a spudder then died shut off, more like someone hit the off button kind of shut off, all guages and light went out. I pulled the clutch in and coasted into a parking lot, I peaked around at...

Have a 90' Vmax I just bought (last week :damn angry: ) and went on my first real ride with some friends...Bike ran ok, then began running on and off 3 cylinders....I figured I would take it easy and limp it back home, figuring it was something with the jetting, as this thing runs extremely...

Well, I've had the bike like 4 weeks. V-Boost worked long enough for me to feel it a couple of times. Now I noticed today that it's not working. I do not have any servo sound when I turn on the key. I have checked and have cleaned all of the wiring contacts. I have even checked the V-Boost...
