Well finally did it after having the bike and the springs for almost 2 years. Pretty easy too! I cut the pvc spacers to 9.37" as per the instructions and installed the factory washer on top of the spring. No air in them. As others have mentioned, It made a huge difference in the ride and...

As the title says, I'm VERY happy with the way the bike is running except this annoying red light keeps lighting up with minimal throttle! Responds very good in every gear. It runs so good, I don't even want to check the sync. Now I know how the bike WAS supposed to run. Money WELL spent...

Ok it does work BUT when I pull lever in it goes fine the seems to bind or stick then it seems to get past it with more pressure the front will dive under hard braking. What should I look for? A piston maybe sticking in the caliper or maybe something in the MC ? Any help would be appreciated ?

Going down to the OBX next week and like to cover my bike for the trip as it will be on an open trailer. Any info on what size to get and possibly make sure it stays on! LOL! Thanks

Is it nessasary to remove the forks to do this? From watching Seans video, it "looks" like you could remove cap, remove nut then remove the spacer/washer and then the spring on the bike? I understand to get the correct oil level/height the forks have to be removed. I also realize that a...

Well my son was/is having issues with one cylinder breaking up. IE really fat/black sooty plug? Could this be the issue? I would think so but what do I know. That's why I'm asking people who do! What's different/missing from one of the carbs?

When for a nice ride this morning and got some chow! :biglaugh: I went with the MRS my eldest son Nephew , brother in law and a few other people. Real nice riding with a bunch of people. Out of all the bikes there, Mr Max took the show. When I pulled up at my brother in laws, there was a...

Well the fuel lights on and rode on reserve for a tiny bit so after reading that 87 is the way to go I'm going to try it. When I was doing the shotgun I had my son read the fake tank lid and he said I "think" 91 octane or higher. I'm at work but will look again this afternoon to recheck it...

How "should" my front brake feel at the lever? I have new braided lines to install but it feels pretty weak. I have to give it a lot of pull to get anything out of it. I'm not use to this feeling and I'm using the rear quite often. Coming off my 06 cr 250 which will stand up on the front...

I might be picking up a pair of old Jardines for my 93. Probably made around the same time so it might be period correct! They look to be in very good shape. I may do something with the tips if I don't care for the way it looks. Here's some pics.

Just got through syncing my carbs on the VMAX. They weren't even that out from each other. 1-2 maybe an 1" and between 1/2- 3/4 an 1" Feels really good. I could be in 5th doing 35/40 and the response in 5th feels like 4th! I didn't even jump on it yet, feels really crisp tho. Can short...

Well 1.5 weeks ago I put her away running great! I've been bragging on it and everything. Before I left for vacation I put Seafoam in the tank. Unfortunately me being the idiot I am, I poured it in without measuring . Soooooo today, I go to take her for a rip go into the garage put the choke...

Well I had some time today after a lil ride :biglaugh: to see what the plugs looked like from the previous owner. Here they are. I know this isn't a throttle chop...but it looks a lil lean to me. As far as I know, it's completely stock. Exhaust everything. Thoughts?

Hey guy's, I finally got me a MAX! I was told by my lovely wife that there will be no street bikes till the 3 boy's were older. Well 2yrs ago SHE bout a Scout ! So that that! After looking at several Max's I bought a 93 with 10600 miles on it from the second owner. She was sitting for 2...
