    Need help in Phoenix area

    I blew a hole (don't ask how because I have no clue lol) in the top side of the transmission case. I've pulled the motor before to install Sean's overdrive 5th gear and vowed never to do that again, especially now that I don't have space or the right tools. Does anyone know where or who I...

    Bouncy front wheel

    I just recently replaced my front stock suspension with some Progressives. Before this was done, my front wheel would bounce and it was worse as speed increased. After the suspension upgrade, it still happens but isn't as bad as before. I really don't notice it until I hit highway speeds. My...

    Oil leak in one airbox pod

    So I'm trying to determine the cause of oil that leaks down the left side of my engine. I managed to locate the source (pic attached) but don't really know what could be causing this. The rubber pods, if that's what they are called, are brand new so I know that's not the culprit. I have tried...

    Unique limousines in Indianapolis

    Does anyone here know of any limo companies in Indy that have unique stretch limos? Planning a bachelor party and trying to find something out of the ordinary for 14 guys. Everyone seems to have the usual Excursion, Hummer, party bus, etc. I cant find anything cool like a Vette, Bentley, or...

    Salvage title cars in Arizona

    Hey all, throwing out a new thread to gauge personal opinions..... The state of Arizona is one of the few states nationwide that brands a title as salvage automatically when a vehicle is stolen. I don't agree with it, especially since there could be minimal or no damage in the theft (i.e. my...

    NHRA Rules for Motorcycles

The most recent NHRA rules they have posted for motorcycle on their site is from the 2006 NHRA rulebook, and I'm trying to find something...

    Tortilla Flats on April 16th

    Hey all you Phoenix-area Vmax guys....I'm putting together a group ride on April 16th to run up to the little restaurant at Tortilla Flats and get some grub-a-dub-dub. Probably going to be meeting in Chandler somewhere around 10:30 or 11 and making out way out there. This isn't specific to...

    Replacing Kerker can?

    I think I may want to replace my Kerker can sometime this year. I've got the comp baffle in it with 70% of the packing removed....so it's rather loud and badass. Does anyone have a recommendation of what can could replace it and still be A) as loud and B) as badass sounding? I thought of even...

    I hate trying to tune these damn things!

    UGH! So....been in Arizona for a little over a year now. Still haven't tuned my bike properly for being out here. I spent most of the Fall/Winter working on projects in our new home, and the bike went by the wayside. I tore into the carbs today and realized how much I have NO clue what I'm...

    My first kills since moving to AZ

    It's hard to believe that we have lived in AZ for a full year now and i didn't get my first kills until just this week. They were goodies though! 1) Raced a friend in his C6 Vette with some mods and won....he made me start from a 40mph roll otherwise he wouldn't have been able to hook up...

    Salvage title cars

    My wife and i are looking to buy a Dodge Ram, so needless to say I have been scouring Craigslist and AutoTrader. I have noticed an influx of salvage-titled vehicles for sale out here. I came across one that seemed to be a good deal. Talked to the guy and found out that the truck was stolen by...

    Fighting fireblocks to wire up a surround sound system

    Has anyone here ever had to go around fireblocks in a wall to run wires? I'm planning to run all my wiring for the surround sound system in the living room and the TV is on an exterior wall and I really don't want to have to cut the wall open to do this. Can I run the wires up through the wall...

    Polaris Caretaker pool cleaning system malfunction

    Ok....I'm officially stumped. Our pool has one of the Polaris/Caretaker in-floor cleaning systems in it. The system didn't work right when we bought the house. Only 2 of the heads in the pool would work, but they never went down. That leads me to believe that somehow the gears in the unit might...

    Arizona Memorial Day ride

    Since we don't really have anyone in the Phoenix area to organize rides, I figured I would take it upon myself to gauge interest in a ride on Memorial Day. Let me know if you'd like to meet up for a ride on Monday. Haven't figured out a route/destination yet, but it shouldn't be hard to do if...

    Breakfast @ Tortilla Flats

    My wife and I went for a ride up the Apache Trail this morning to have breakfast at Tortilla Flats. I spotted another Vmax there when we left after breakfast, but no owner. Silver Vmax, chrome wheels. Looked bone-stock. Had a sticker on the bottom half of each scoop, as well as on the faux...

    Fatmax bellypan mounts

    Has anyone here who has a Fatmax bellypan ever had issues with ground clearance? If I lean into a turn too much, I scrape the pan on the ground. And, I just noticed the other day that the front 2 mounts for the bellypan have busted in half....I'll give Roger a call and see if I can get new ones...

    Battery keeps dying

    So I think this may be a no brainer, but I'm no good with electrical so it couldn't hurt to ask. My bike is forced to sit outside until we buy a house with a garage (SOON hopefully) and nights here drop down into the 40s. I have to park the bike on our patio in order to be able to charge it, and...

    ugh...this is ridiculous

    Wow....for those of you who read or are reading my other thread, I'm in the process of buying a home. I can not WAAAAIIITTTT to have a garage. I just was forced to pay $60 for an oil change in my Miata (have to run Mobil 1 0W-40 which ain't cheap) and it doesn't make me happy. Need to have a...

    Can I ask your opinion on buying a home?

    Alright so I know this is ultimately a decision that my wife and I have to make on our own. We have narrowed things down to 2 houses that we both like. Here are links for both of them: E. Ivanhoe St. N. Balboa Circle Each house has it's own pros and cons. Here are some of the main ones...
