little background, brother in law bought his 01 vmax last year and it had ran like dog piss ever since I first test rode it. ( after he bought it of course) well early winter he took it in to have the carbs gone through and the guy found that the jets were in backwards? well anyway he rode it up...

a little back ground. I have an 05 vmax roughly 30k miles. a couple years ago I did the cops mod and all has been well. well I have a nerve issue that will cause loss of strength on my leg ( totally random when it does it) anyway it happened the other day when backing the bike out of a friends...

well off and on ive had some minor issues with the bike running funky over the last couple years. nothing major but it would start acting like it had a dead cylinder every once in a while but only lasted a few minutes, then clear up. ( has only done it a couple times. no more than 3 times over 2...

im thinking there might be an issue with my choke adjustment. explain to me the functions of the choke on an 05 please? the reason why i ask is my bike in particular ive never used the full choke until this year. a couple times i think i flooded the bike recently. it wouldnt kick off...

ok, the speedo and housing on my bike seem loose.(theres the speedo, rubber oring, then housing.) how the heck do you tighten the two pcs together? i havent removed it from the bike but i dont see any screws to tighten... they arent just clamped together are they?

saw this and am thinking the guy is higher than cheech marin... anywho what makes this bike so rare? 1 of 15??? http://oklahomacity.craigslist.org/mcy/2486745059.html

i recently swapped over to cops in my 05 using a harness that i bought off here. dont remember who (but it had the resister) the coils came from an 07 gsxr 750. first i wired up the front cylinders backwards and realized something was wrong when it backfired stupid loud a couple times( common...

had a little friend/family cookout over the weekend and while we were there my 4 year old asked if wed let him shoot some cans. keep in mind ive been working with him on gun safety since he could walk. well the boys god father and i looked at each other and said sure... why not! the boys...

little background info. my bike has about 18k miles on it and hasnt ever had the carbs gone through but i dont let it sit long enough to gum up either. stock jets as far as i know. runs great mostly.... about 3 months ago i noticed it started acting odd. off idle still ran great but at idle...

i received my carbtune yesterday and decided that since its been about 3000 miles ( pretty sure its been longer than that even) since i re-synced i opened it right away and got busy. i know vaccume can often tell how efficient a motor is running so it got me to thinking. how much vacuum per...

obviously it would be installed for the track since it illegal to street race but i was just thinking about the legality of nitrous being installed on a bike that is on the street. meaning lets say i had a track bike that had nitrous installed and wanted to also ride it to and from work. would...

how do you remove the grips? everything else seems pretty straight forward as far as removing off the handle bars. ( i see bolts anyway lol...) also the bolts that hold the handlebars themselves on, the heads face the front correct? just making sure i am looking at the right things before i...

with the heat wave that came through, it gave me the kick in the ass i need to finish a project. wife may not be too happy with what i did to her 5 year old fridge thats in the garage. but thats what she gets for putting something in my man space. she couldnt honestly expect me to just leave it...

i know tuning an exhaust is important but im not sure how this made such a huge difference.i went from a ufo quadzilla full exhaust to a kerker 4 into 1 which had the street baffle in it. i immediately noticed a bit better mid range than before but wasnt enough to write home about. fast forward...

to the person who sold me my kerker....(now with sound) i have to take this moment in time to thank you very much! now that i finally have my comp baffle ( was on back order for ever) it sounds exactly how i wanted it to. seems about as loud as my ufo was only it doesnt have the raspiness and...

I know everyone knows how good kerkers are but I figured I would share my first impressions. Right now I only have the stock kerker baffle due to the comp baffle being on back order but it didn't stop me from trying out the new exhaust. Its night and day better than my old ufo exhaust. In their...

and i must say when she left i had a huge grin on my face from ear to ear :) only draw back is the collector for the header is bent but im pretty sure i can fix that... heres a teaser picture though. hopefully i can get my old exhaust off this weekend

ive always heard kerker was a good set up (on different bikes)but after doing my research on this site it seems not many people run that set up on the vmax... also i know my center stand will go bye bye. but will i have to remove the tabs that the center stand bolts too as well? ( the tabs that...

does anyone know how to make a will out? im afraid my wife just might kill me after she finds out i just ordered a kerker system from sean... ah well. hopefully shell let me take it for a ride after its installed before she kills me :eusa_dance:

last weekend some dumb ass pinned my throttle and locked my throttle lock while it was sitting ( im pretty sure i know who did it but he wont admit it) :bang head: anyway when i started it it immediately reved way high ( probably passed redline) before i hit the kill switch ( he it was delayed...
