Hmmm, Nice leathers he's wearing for the happy little stunts he wants to do. Gotta love a bone helmet. Does so much for protecting that soft computer up there. All I can say is stupid is as stupid does.

You have my deepest sympathy in the loss of your father. I must say, however, it was not the cops who got him, rather he got himself. Please do not use this as an excuse to blame "da man" once again. He chose to run. That choice placed him on the big highway in the sky. I always mourn the...

I just put Ferodo Sintered HH Racing brakes on the rear. I'll let you know how they perform. Everything that I read about the brakes led me to believe that they'd be fine on the rear of the Max. Ferodo makes them for the Max, so I guess they must be okay.

I thought it would be easy to change the pads without taking off the caliper. I got the old pads off just fine, but when trying to compress the pistons......they wouldn't budge. Ended up having to take the calipers off, removing all the fluid and then compressing the pistons. Then had to...

Changed the rear brake pads, bled the rear line, installed new bag hangers.............that's enough for today.

I work for the State of Ohio and am a member of the OCSEA / AFSCME. All they do is take my money and give it to their favorite political party (read: Democrat). Grievances filed are often ignored or worse, so mishandled that it makes the union employee look bad. My boss routinely violates...

Gotta love a man with his priorities in check......LOLOL

Re: Easiest way to put it on the centrestand I gave up and bought a rear end lift to get in on the stand. No strain at all......LOL Now moving that monster around in the garage after getting it up there.....different story. I did find a way to do it though. Use a tie down strap to make sure...

I've got a system called 5thBoost. That's when you run out of gas and have to push that heavy assed monster home.....LOL. I want a fuel gauge.....WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH. Oh, and Nightmare......welcome to the reason we all love this radical machine......pure adrenaline.

I agree with TFish. I had an old mustang that did the same thing. It was water in the tank. Only affected it when I was below 1/4 tank. I drained it and used "gas dryer" that Methel stuff to clear any water out of the lines. Came back to life and never had a problem with it again. Sucks...

I was at The Iron Pony here in Columbus today getting a new pair of gloves. When I got outside, my spider sense went off. I saw a guy slowly putting on his jacket. Then slowly putting on gloves. He was standing at the bike next to mine. I didn't pay any attention to him after that because I...

Must be a problem with them, it happened to me too. I've already replaced it, but it was pricey for what it is.....a weird shaped washer. As a temp fix until it came in, I used a regular washer and a rubber grommet.....the kind you use for the bottom of table legs. It worked very well, but...

Thanks Naughty, it seems to have worked itself out. I guess 1100 miles will do that....LOL. No more drips on the floor. The window is still full, but it seems to have self corrected. Now I know what that little hole in the boot is for. Okay, not so upset any more at the weird Japanese...

Now, I'm not supposed to do stuff like this....being a cop and all, but sometimes that smugness on a HD rider just needs to be knocked off. I was sitting at a light the other day when a V-ROD pulled up in my lane. He pulled a little ahead of me so he didn't get a good look at Mr. Max. He...
