    Voodoo fork brace?

    Just wondering how much of an improvment the Voodoo Fork brace will be over stock? Found a good deal on one and before I attempt a USD full setup I want to see if I can improve stock with bracing and progressive springs etc...

    Headlight size

    Unfortunately no.. this is what I'm looking for but need the measuremnt on the stock Vmax headlight as I know it's not 7" like this one.

    Headlight size

    Just need the measurement on the bulb.. Looking at getting one with built in LED signals. Already have the CBR with integrated LED signals in the back and trying to "sleek" it down a bit..

    Headlight size

    Looking at finding a replacement headlight for my 85, just wondering if anyone knows the measurement across on the stock sealed bulb is? My bike is stored about 45 mins away so not so easy for me to measure..

    New front end options?

    Well I have a complete Gen 1 Busa front end! Now time to start shopping for the rest.. Any one have recomendations for triples? Going on an 85 if that makes a difference.

    Clutch slave rebuild?

    OEM one was going to bust me for $150.00 after taxes so I figure I'll give a rebuild a go and try to save $130.00 first... Thats a new front tire worth of savings..lol

    Clutch slave rebuild?

    Hoping someone has a good "how to" article or even better a video on rebuilding the clutch slave. Bike is an 85. Ordered the rebuild kit today so it will be a week or better before I attempt this.. I've never done this before so the more simple instructions the better.

    optional sizes for F/R?

    Just have stock rims, wasn't aware new rims would be needed.. looking at prices and honestly I'd rather buy a used supermoto for handling than put that much into rims for an 85..

    optional sizes for F/R?

    Any suggestion on brand or model of radials.. I'm really open to suggestions at this point and can save up for a month or two for them as it's still frozen and white here and I've only been able to get out a few times and it was still well below freezing..

    optional sizes for F/R?

    What combination gets me the best handling? Just out of curiosity.

    Finally some progress!

    Yes we reverse bled it with a syringe and tube, making sure to get all the air out of the syringe and tube first.. Pushed a few bubbles out the top reservoir but can't figure out how they got in there as there doesn't seem to be any liquid leaking anywhere and we pretty much have to bleed it...

    Finally some progress!

    Again, I'm an idiot when it comes to Vmax (or any modern tech) We bled the spot down by the driver peg under the little rubber cover...

    optional sizes for F/R?

    Ok well I got back out to the bike today and this shows how un observant I am.. Current tires Front - 100/90-18 Rear - 170/80-15 Both Pirelli Route MT-66's Front is toast, back looks good..

    Finally some progress!

    Yup CBR light mod.. indicators are integrated into it and are very bright LED's.. But new problem.. clutch keeps getting air in somehow.. Anyone have thoughts on this.. what do I need to start with for problem solving.. I'm not a mechanic by any means...
