    1200 running hot

    I second that. I assume you are hitting this with an IR gun while the bike is idling? If so fatten the mix up a little on the hot cylinder, it should cool slightly.

    Carb synchronising

    He's gone to the trouble of very clearly going through the process in perfect detail so I won't screw it up with my version. Check this thread from Dannymax if you're having trouble syncing carbs. https://www.vmaxforum.net/threads/carb-sync-procedure-for-carbtune.43398/

    Full face helmet plus a N-95 mask and Nitrile gloves?

    Don't you have an overheating motorcycle to attend to?

    New paint

    I'm a stickler for metal finish on the scoops, but that looks good! Nice job!

    Long Distance Rides - What to watch out for??

    I'd take care of the oil pickup o-ring. Definitely make sure your ignition coils aren't showing any cracks in the plastic.

    Supercharged vmax

    Shadetree has a great channel. I remember that bike making some awesome sounds when I first watched that video. Check out his vids starring the Kawi H2 powered chopper his friend built. That thing is another ripper!

    3 SETS OF EBC FA88 PADS, 2 FA88HH AND 1 FA88V/THESE HAVE SOLD

    You put these up at exactly the right time! I'll take them if they're still available.

    Exhaust clearance

    My Hindle 4-2-1 has the same problem on the rear cylinders. The headers are about an 1/8" or a 1/16" from the plastic battery box. If I let it warm up too long it melts the box near the header pipe. I am on my third E-bay battery box. (thanks Pinwall Cycle!)

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    I think he's joking because it says "EX" between the valve reliefs

    Carb part (?) ID, please help!

    Yo, Fire-medic! It's been a long while. Hope you are doing well in these crazy times. It is exactly like a choke rod bushing in shape and material, only about three times their size. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_F0AocATck/?igshid=1h1visf6e5my8

    Carb part (?) ID, please help!

    Clif's notes- bike has been apart for far longer than I intended. Just got around to fully rebuilding each carb and racking them up. I have no extra parts, except this. It is made of nylon or some sort of stiff but slightly flexible plastic type material...

    Installing COPs inc. removing OEM coils pt1

    I have one in my backpack, and they can be changed without tools if required. Less weight (although a minor concern...which is why after 20 minutes of cursing the two front coils are still where the factory installed them!)

    Spanner wrench

    That's the one I picked up. Works great, and it also works on BMW R bikes (and a ton of others I'm sure)
