2001 with 13,000 miles -Leaking fork seals replaced, progressive springs @ 12,000 miles -Weak coils, did COP mod @ 10,000 miles -Clutch slave leaking, fix in process Everything else is maintenance or mods. I think I've got off easy (knock on wood)!

I ride around Gun Lake at least once a week in the summer, I would'nt mind meeting up and tagging along if its not a problem. There's some decent twisties around the lake.

Hey bbadwheels, I used to live in Decatur near the boat dealership, and I own an 01 carbon fiber too. Small world!

I would like to but can't this year; next year for sure. I only live about 30 minutes from Paw Paw. Does anyone know how big the group was last year?

Hit a raccoon while on a sharp curve, I went down and rolled into a guardrail, the max slid into a ditch. I think that raccoon gave me the finger and ran off.

Amazing! Having folders is nice, and the Bluetooth keyboard is sweet! I love this phone! Im trying to convince my friends with "lesser" smartphones to convert when the new phones are out. It's still by far the best, most well thought out phone there is, IMO.

Is there anything else to this update besides multitasking? Has anything else changed since going to iOS4?

I agree. There is no 3g anywhere near where I live. Their commercials tout nationwide coverage which is true for phone service, but not their 3g. I've only been able to use it in Chicago, and there it seemed to only work in certain parts of the city. Phone is great, ATT sucks.

I thought we had to wait till the 21st, I guess not! Multitasking will make things alot easier, can't wait to use it.

Plainwell, just north of Kzoo. I'm the only Max in this area that I know of.

Makes sense, I don't know about "sidwin's" case, but it might be time to invest in better boots. Out of curiosity, is it even possible for a slipping clutch to heat up the cover?

I use ankle high boots, sometimes tennis shoes, and it's warm with either. Haven't tried flip-flops, maybe better cooling!

I've been wondering the same thing, I have to keep my foot on the end of the right peg also. It's not burning hot, just very uncomfortable. It doesn't seem right, but maybe it's normal, I just hope it's not the clutch or something worse getting cooked.

I already have the Mits, so I'm going to try them, if it's a no go the wiring will be the same, I can just swap em for Densos. The writeup you did for the cop install is awsome naughtyg, a "must read" for anyone doing this.

You got me worried about those Mitsubishi coils naughtyG. The primary ohms out at about 1.6 for all of them, which is what I think the Densos are to. Seems like they should work, but we'll see. I was going to use the stock coil connectors and splice onto the R1 harness, use some factory...

I just bought the same cops, will be installing them next week. I know the Mitsubishi (r1) cops work, i remember someone saying they used them with no problems. Just be sure you get a coil harness so you can use the watertight clips. Wiring looks simple, the vmax coils all have a red/white wire...

Awesome. I've never seen a burnout in a pool of gas before. Don't try this at home!! Thanks for the vid.

:rofl_200::rofl_200: I needed a good laugh. You would have no idea what they were selling if there wasn't a pic. Thank you for elating my plastic this thread is a WORLD NOVELTY!!!

Putting brake fluid on plastic just doesn't seem right, but I am definitely going to test this out, on some old cars first, and see how well it works. I trust your experience, but I'm not brave enough to try this on the Max just yet!

I'm getting married this Saturday and our photographer said she would do some pics of us and the Vmax, and that means getting her cleaned up (talking about the bike):biglaugh:. The last owner rode it on dirt, and its still got some grunge in all the nooks of the motor. I heard simple green was...
