    This is really bad....

    As some of you know, I've been fighting with my jetting for awhile now.... I swapped out the dynojet stage 1 jets, and put in 147.5's... But while doing so, I lost a brass spacer (from the clamp that holds the carbs to the manifold... I thought I just lost it on the ground.. But now my bike...

    Reasking question

    So I posted this earlier and didn't get a reply, so I thought I'd rephrase my question... At what RPM's/Throttle positions do the different jets work? Is my problem from 3-4.25K due to a main jet problem? Thanks! -Joey

    Main Jet Question

    All, I haven't done too much work on my Carbs yet, so these are going to be real basic questions. I drilled my stock exhaust and and from my other questions it's probably running a little rich. So it was suggested to drop my Main jets down a size or two... But I still don't have any idea what...

    Garage Door Opener

    Now maybe I'm just lazy, but I've gotten tired to getting off my bike to open my garage door. And I've tried having an opener in my jacket.... but, sometimes it gets turned around and with gloves on it's hard to push the button. (Someone recently did something like this on the VMOA tech list...

    Running rich due to exhaust mod?

    My dad recently did the stock exhaust mod - we drilled 5 3/8" holes and then spaced it about 1/2" before putting the cover plate back on. I recently received this email: Does this seem likely??

    6th gear?

    Maybe this is just my lack of knowledge, but why hasn't someone created a way to put a 6th gear on a max? I do a lot of highway riding and would really like to drop the RPM's some times.. I know that their is the venture rear end swap, but I'd like to keep my current gearing and just add...

    Sweet Red connectors

    I saw a pic of somebody's 2006 bike here where they had red wires/connectors/tubing ?? running through their bike to replace the black ones. Anyone know who's it is and which wires they replaced? (and cost would be nice too) Thanks!

    17/18in wheel advice

    What's the general price range for this? I'm assuming tires will be $100-200 each? Besides new wheels what else would need to be done/bought? You can't just buy different size wheels and stick them on, right?

    Faster, better, quicker

    So I was thinking to myself about which mods I plan on doing this winter... and I was trying to put them into two groups... 1 is for safer/practical: For example, progressive shocks, better brakes, emulator, etc.... the other group is the fun one (and the hard to sell to the wife-o)...

    Front Brake Noise

    I have a new 06 with 3300 miles on it. When I bring the front wheel off the ground and spin it, it makes a rubbing noise on the brakes in some spots. Is this normal? Is there a way to fix this and make the noise go away?

    2006 Question

    I read the forum about the Racetek emulators and I wasn't sure if someone had figured out for sure which parts to get? I want to do progressive springs and the emulators. Does anyone have the part numbers that will fit my 2006 for sure? I don't really want to take my forks apart too many...

    Is 80mph Wobble a low speed or high speed?

    When I'm switching lanes on the highway if their's any difference in the two lanes my front end wobbles a few times and then calms down. Would this be from too tight or too lose on those bolts? (I'll do the furbur fix next week - but since that's the only problem hated to mess with what was...

    Top Priority Work?

    My friend just bought his first motorcycle a 1985 Honda Nighthawk. It was in real good shape for being a 1985, and he only wanted to spend around a grand anyways. But it definitely needs some work (the last owner who had it for 3 years hasn't done anything to it - not changing the oil, or...

    Redoing Passenger Seat

    So I bought my Max partially because it was a better passenger bike then my SV1000S. When we went for one of our first hour plus rides the other day she said the seat was extremely uncomfortable. (more so than my other bike). So I decided to try and make it better. Here's my plan: 1) Buy a...

    Fork Brace

    I bought the UFO Fork brace and started to install it... I looked at the shop manual and it said remove the 4 bolts on top... and then the 4 bolts underneath (that secure it to the fender). I spent hours on this.. I could not get the the 4 underside bolts off without removing the tire...
