    Does this look like a good buy?

    The wife and I are moving to Fort Myers, FL, and I thinking of selling my '92 and picking up another Max down there, just to make it easier. Found this one on CL and would like some opinions (other than on the color, which I'm not that keen on and would probably change) as to whether this seems...

    my '92 not cranking over...

    I apologize if I'm repeating an often asked problem with an obvious solution, but I came up empty in my search. Went to start the Max last night and it wouldn't turn over. Battery is fully charged, headlight and instr. lights come on, I hear the fuel pump sound and the vboost clicking, but all...

    gasket warping...

    Just noticed this morning that the rubber gasket behind the left crankcase cover cap is warped, just for about 2 inches on the very bottom of it. No oil is leaking out, it just looks like crap. Ordered a new one, but wondering if it is a warning sign of potential engine problems or probably just...

    North Carolina biking roads-

    The wife and I are driving down (in the cage) from CT to FL for my bro's 50th bday and decided to avoid I-95 and take 17 and as much of the back roads as possible, scoping out some possible future biking trips as well. We decided to go as far east as possible in NC and hit the coastal areas of...

    Playboy centerfold the month I was born...

    So I recently found a collection of all the Playboy centerfolds pics, from December, 1953 (1st issue, Marilyn Monroe) through October, 2008. So I check to see which babe was the one the month I was born, and this is what showed up... Crap, figures I was born the only month in history Hef didn't...

    starter relay?

    Took a ride today and she wouldn't start-had to jump start her to get her home. All I got when I turned the key was a clicking, seems to be coming from the starter relay. Is that what they sound like when they're gone?

    Recognize these pipes?

    Anyone know what exhaust system these headers are for? If these go for the right price, picking up the can that belongs to it might make a worthy and cost effective upgrade...

    oil filter spring...

    Ok, a noob question for sure, but the last bike I had with a cartridge type oil filter was an 83 Maxim XJ750--I found a spring in the used oil I just drained, and vaguely remember the Maxim having a spring to push the filter cartridge away from the engine block so the filter would cover the...

    is the clunking normal?

    New to this bike and just wondering if it's normal to have a solid clunk when shifting...I have it in all gears, whether shifting up or down. No grinding or anything like that, but it just feels like my Magna does when she needs to have the chain adjusted. It's a '92 and due for an oil change...

    carb parts...

    Anyone have an opinion on the best vendor to buy carb parts from? Still having trouble with the Max not running w/out some choke on all the time, so I've pulled the carb bank again and am in the process of stripping it down. Found a few cracks in the boots attaching them to the vboost...

    '92 Max dies after idle...

    Been riding since I was 16 (37 years ago), most recently a '95 Honda Magna VF750, and picked up a '92 VMax just yesterday. It's in nice shape, cosmetically, but has one major problem. Starts up easily at full choke, will idle nicely, but as soon as you twist the wick it dies out. I'm assuming...
