    Alternate mufflers

    Has anybody ever tried to use import cans on a 1st gen Max? Any idea of how they would sound? I'm looking to do something different but don't know enough about backpressure and how it would affect performance. I'm not looking to gain a bunch of power or re-jet, but I don't want to lose power...

    Integrated CBR LED Tail Light Mounting

    I just finished doing this upgrade yesterday. I did the tape and epoxy mount and it went very well. The only thing I had an issue was with testing it out - the brake worked well but only 1 blinker would work. After tearing into everything and almost giving up, I remembered that every video...

    'VBoost' tach

    After reading the thread about the 185 mph speedo for an '85 it brought back a memory I thought I had about the first years. I could have sworn my buddies '85 or '86 had the words 'VBoost' on the tach around the 6000 rpm mark. Am I remembering correctly or did I have a little too much fun in...

    Muscle Cars and Hot Rods

    I've got a '66 Delta 88 convertible - not much of a muscle car but it does have a 425 high compression engine. Also building a '34 Chrysler Coupe (rumble seat) that I dropped a 454 into. Going for the '60s look with it - big tires in back, small in front, big rake, etc.

    Plugging a tire

    After all these years of riding on and off road I finally got something stuck in my tire. Of course it had to be on the rear tire of the Max and the tire only had 2000 miles on it. I pulled it out and plugged it and it has been holding for a month now. I just planned on using the tire until...

    bought a bomadier qaud for the wife

    If you are looking for a place to go riding head over to Crow Canyon in Urichsville, OH. I think they have 100 or 200 acres (can't remember) of trails, a peewee MX track and a full size MX track. I go there with and without kids and have a great time. They are open 7 days/week and it's not...

    First Ride - head shake - Help!

    I took my 2000 Max out for the first time today. I've never ridden one of these beasts before and I'm amazed at how much power it has! It kicks ass! The only problem I have is that when I'm doing over 40mph and take 1 hand off of the bars they start to shake back and forth. My Nighthawk...

    Fork brace drawing? Anyone?

    If you have an extra copy of the fork brace drawing, I'd appreciate one. I'd like to machine one up myself at work and add some custom engraving or something to it. Thanks!

    First bike/mods

    Thanks for all of the advice! Since it's a free mod, I think the first thing I will do is make a new fork brace. I've been looking at ebay and other places for exhaust systems, but they are still too expensive for right now. The wife seems to think that since I have the bike our next need is for...

    First bike/mods

    OK, this is my first time posting and I'm a new member as I just got my 2000 Max last weekend, but have wanted one for over 20 years. I've read a bunch of the postings about what should be changed and why, but I haven't found an answer to a couple of questions. 1. Why is the stock fork brace...
