    Value of a 1997 ?

    I didn't like the sound of the Cobra's. I have Delkevic mufflers on it now.

    Value of a 1997 ?

    Mine was $3200 with 17,000 miles. Only thing previous owner did was install cobra exhaust tips. I think I've had it about 4 years now.

    Motorycle For Sale 2002 Vmax 1200

    I didn't want to be as savage as you guys, but I agree on all the comments. ;)

    Motorycle For Sale 2002 Vmax 1200

    That seems a bit high. I would clean it up real well. It looks like it needs some TLC. If I could get that for mine, I'd probably sell it! Good luck.

    Repainted my 1997 VMax

    I got the decal on eBay. I can't remember the size, but it's real close to the original.

    650 Seca Turbo project asking $700

    SOMEBODY got it already. I would have liked to have seen it. Bummer.

    Every old fart has to check blood pressure every day. I did.

    There's a machine at my office, similar to what pharmacies have. I check mine on a regular basis. It's usually about what yours is.

    Ditching rear light.

    I got this one on eBay. Not as bright as I'd like, but I think it fits under the fender very well. It also works as a turn signal, so no I have 2 lights to let people know to try not to hit me.

    Repainted my 1997 VMax

    Thanks all! The wheel striping was bought on eBay. I'm not liking this particular brand. Even using a heat gun on them, they won't stay down correctly. They give just enough to do the bike with maybe one piece left over. I didn't paint the aluminum on the scoops as I did want some silver...

    Repainted my 1997 VMax

    I really didn't like the silver on the bike, and after I saw my first yellow Max, I decided that was the color I would paint mine. Probably not the exact same color. Mine is Valspar "Gold Abundance," with purple to green changing accents. I also wanted a quarter fairing and settled on this...

    I removed my listing for sale.

    I used to live in San Antonio, and you could get picadillo tacos everywhere. Down here on the border, it's not very popular. In fact, when I ask for it, I get a poor representation of what I'm used to.

    I should have looked at where you're from. Cuban food! I've never tried it, but it looks like a variation of the Mexican food we have here. It looks good! I'll have to find a Cuban restaurant around here. Sorry for hijacking this thread, but food is better than fighting, right?

    What does ropa vieja translate to? Where I'm from, it would be "Old Clothes." Just trying to keep things lite, and I'm one that has Cobras on his bike, but I've already been scoping out something else.

    Headlight fairing

    My factory headlight did fill the opening on the fairing, so I'm hoping the new one will as well. I was surprised. I was expecting this nasty gap. I have a plan if the new headlight looks small. If I need to make something, like grommets, I'll go to Home Depot and get what I need. Looking...
