Just had a dunlop k555 170/80 15 mounted yesterday and had only one small problem re-installing the tire, the brake caliper bleeder screw was a tight squeeze past the fatter sidewall. No other issues, plenty of clearence & washer in the original location.

Wow,17days is fast? It's usually 3 from the time I go to the sheriff's office and pay my renewal fee to pulling the new permit out of the mailbox. Iowa finally passed a shall issue law so now we'll be good for five years instead of renewing every year.

Pretty much always.carry my Browning HP 40 SW in a bianci 100 iswb with 180 hydrashocks. Carried my Glock 20 10MM with a friends holster & 135grn CorBons for a while. Just put a bobtail on a fullsize 1911 and will carry it once I've put a serious round count thru it. My wife threw a shit fit...

I hadn't ridden a Vmax before I bought my 06. Had read about the frame flex & handling problems, so I was surprised at how tight the bike felt. Somehow made it past the break-in without getting into the boost. Got it lined up on a strech of road, nailed it, and thought the effin frame broke...

I feel your pain, wrecked my 06 a month after buying it, first new vehicle I ever owned. And no full coverage at the time. It wasnt torn up as bad as yours, all bolt on parts. I was off for 10 weeks with a pinned ankle. Was more pissed about the bike than me ;) You didn't say if you were hurt...

You can get a product called liquid masking film I think is avalable at art supply stores, you apply it and cut and remove were you want to paint, then remove the rest after painting

I'll have to check when I get home as far as the Vmax is concerned, but an old XS 500 I used to have you could take the NGK plug boots apart and the resistor could be removed. I replaced it with a piece of copper wire the same diameter and had no problems. I have no idea if it helped in any...

lankeeyankee, my bike didn't wobble at all. I also have solid motor mounts, don't know if that makes any difference on a dyno. Maybe some of the more experienced board members could commint. nosboss, PM sent. I'd love to meet & ride with some other Max riders in the area.:punk:

Just got my '06 on a dyno at Fenders Cycle the other day, 112 hp @8,500 rpm and 78 lb/ft @ 5,800 rpm. The bike is stock other than drilled mufflers and the Y piece taken off of the air box. It has 3,500 mi and I followed the factory break in. The temp was high 70's, overcast and humid. Cold...
