So far so good. Bike is starting better than ever and no drain on the battery. Plan to drive it to work tommorrow. Bike has been out of action so much , I only have 14k+ miles on it(an 03). I have replaced 4 batteries, two voltageregulators , a stator and now the starter. It will be nice to...

Installed a new starter on my 03. Hot and misrable outside in the Sun but preferable to the voracious skeeters in the evening. So far so good and I hope this cures the hot start problems plagueing my bike for the last two years. Not easy but neither too complicated. A bike lift is essential as...

The two line system looks and works great but my mechanic when he installed it at first had a bitch of a time bleeding it. The problem is at the resevoir. You have two lines stacking on each other and have to loosten them to get the last air bubbles out. N o amount of pumping got the air out at...

Sean has it right. I had a machinest grind down the backside flat and then he cut the letters out. With the backside ground flat I epoxied glass windows over the back side of the letters. I had a glass shop measure and cut precise windows but there is a slight curve so a totally flat fit is not...

This is the side view of my scoops. Need a new picture of the front which also is a window and lit.

I let my VMOA membership expire and I am not rushing to renew. I got tired of the personal attacks that should not have been public forum. My biggest complaint is that the site does not have a user friendly, simple photo upload. This site is nice and easy but the VMOA site is stupidly...

I am dyslexic. Dyslexics of the world, untie!

My 03 Max has been eating batteries. This Spring even after charging the battery and keeping it on a trickle charger it still went dead. I changed the battery to no avail and then started to follow threads on the VMOA site and this site. I took a chance that the problem was the...

I bought the vinyl letters and liked them but after a years and a half they began to lose adhesion. As I had a set of multicolored leds i had an idea of lighting up the scoops. A machinest cut out the letters and a glass shop made up some windows to seal the openings and after epoxying and...

I have been using the 18" rear from eightsenuff for 3 years now and am very happy with it.I am switching to a Metzler 880 Marathon this spring to match my 120/18 Metzler up front. The offset gave no handling issues what soever. My front tire was my problem and was cured with the 120/18 which...

I replaced all my stock foot pegs with Kuryaken. They are heavy but work and intall easily. I out Kuryaken pegs on the V-Max engine guards and they work very well. Figure around $ 85.00 for highway pegs to fit the engine guards. I am very satified with Kuryakin products. You get what you pay for.

Cool concept! As a caver who spends a lot of time underground in the dark, I recommend the color green. Red and blue are illegal in most states as they are reserved for emergency personel. The color green is optically brighter in the dark as it does not affect your night vision. I use green...

I just replaced my front 110-18 with a 120 Metzler 880 and what a differnce in handling. Turning is more easier and requires little effort. I will put a Metzler 880 180-18 on the rear this spring for the complete match. I don't ride hard so this tire seems well siuted for me. My neighbor went to...

Yes, as I wired the lights directly to the battery. I have a remote switch which turns the the lights on or off and changes the color patterns and rate of change. I have six led light strips total. one each behind the scoops, knee guards and rear frame . In Virginia I am not allwed to use them...
