    Cheap regulators on ebay worth it?

    Just got done replacing battery cables with soldered 4 gauge and cleaning all connections and wire connections. Seems to have cured issue! I won't know for sure till I take her out later. I hope so, that way I can save for a quality R/R and have it before mine goes.

    Cheap regulators on ebay worth it?

    As ussual funds are short but been having charging issue with my Vmax. I'm redoing all the power and ground wires today with 4 gauge. I don't know if the regulator is bad but for $17 I figured it maybe worth changing. But I see the prices range from $17 to over $100. Will I be wasting money or...

    Has anyone put sportbike subframe/tail on gen 1?

    Wow! Both those tails look good. Didn't use the subframe? Just made your own ? Are they solid enough for a 120lb passenger? I like the dual shock staying

    Has anyone put sportbike subframe/tail on gen 1?

    Not looking to copy this bike. Just a pic for reference. Deff cutting and welding in my future. I'm hoping to somehow keep dual shocks and my tank. I guess I've got lots of work and testing to do. Lol. But that's half the fun. Thanks for the link. I'm trying to get all the info I can before I go...

    Gap between lower triple tree and neck????

    My biggest question is what's the worst case? Will the bearing explode? Making the bike uncontrollable and a for sure crash?

    Is there a right and left rear shock or are they the same

    Didn't take forks apart but they did leak a small amount fluid out one side of air crossover tube. About a 5" puddle on floor. Did bounce test and adjusted 8 times now hoping I just didn't have it right. Bounce seems perfect every time. No trouble with wander till I hit bump or rough road. Could...

    Is there a right and left rear shock or are they the same

    Thanks guys. Having a bad handling issue. Took off rear and front of bike to paint and do head bearings. Now bike handle strange and can't figure out. Think it has to do with air cross over. Forks feel rough. Like always on rough road. And when on rough road bike shakes crazy and is hard to...

    Rear axle bolt won't budge but maybe 1/4"

    I just had a new/used tire put on a few months ago. I'm trying to remove rear wheel but shop must have used an impact. It won't barely move using PB blaster, 12" adjustable and a mallet. Any suggestions?

    How do my plugs look? Too lean?

    Then I plan on having them cleaned and synced. Does $250 sound about right? I pay for parts too. I was just worries about an occasional "pop" out of the carb starting from a stop. Thank you guys for the info!!!
