ITS THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO , AT 5000 RPM , JUST GET ON BOTH THROTTLES ,LOL . I LOVE IT . THANKS AGAIN ,I USED A SUN RACE FOR NOW ,MY FRIEND HAS A BICYCLE SHOP DOWN THE STREET, THIS WINTER ,WHEN I PULL CARBS I,LL GO WITH A GRIP SHIFT , DIRECT HOOK UP

I reemed the two bad ones out and they fit great , if they break I,ll contact you , thanks , this drum grinder , is exactly 2 inchs ,it fits into the good ones , any shrunken ones ,its takes out the excess rubber, I,ll better call a patent lawyer

I think i found a new solution to my shrunkin rubber airbox boot, this drum wood shaper been floating around ,for ever ,plus I found down the dump. one boot was one inch and 7/8 ,the drum is 2 inch ,so tried it ,and it worked , who knew lolol

I was at my wits end ,than there it was a 2 inch steel drum clylinder sander for woodwork , one rubber boot shank to 1- 7/8 , I was going to buy a new one anyway, so I started reeming out , and it worked

Whats the purpose of these lines ,is the oil supplied from the vent cover or the other way around ,thank you

Thanks for the info,i,ll keep the stock box , what a pita to put on , I will put new rubber boots ,and a better breather tube , for now

should I loosen that bangoe bolt ,than try to bend it ,or leave it tight ,how do you go about buying parts ,thanks

Took old breather hose off ,was going to replace with heater hose ,but there is a oil feed line up against the crankcase vent pipe ,what do you do ,I don't want to try to pry the line over ,I might break it ,do you really need that hose to the airbox , the diagram in the service manual shows...

I hear ya ,same here .the vmax with the corbin seat and the airhawk pad ,and swan handle bars , they help the most,I can ride all day , I had a Goldwing 1500 and a hayabusa unrestricted,both great bikes , if they had a kid ,it would be a vmax ,lol

on the starter cover sleeve , one of thr bolts made the round hole into a oblong hole with high ridges around it ,from banging against it , should I replace it or file it down ,everything is it great shape , what do think about those ideal ones on ebay 59 $ thanks
