Think a screw fell out and did that? I was putting my motor back together and noticed that the pick-up coil had been clearanced by the flywheel......

Stock is 32... (If you can believe the Clymer manual.) Thanks for the advice today Sean. Wow, I can't even tell you how many times I've shot an email to Sean and he has answered my questions. You are a super helpful guy dude.

Cool! I'm from Digby originally. Stony Plain AB now.

Progressive front springs/lower front end. Radials on good wheels. Better seat

Hey buddy. Not sure what you want to know. You have a VMax with 9000kms on it?! When in doubt change the oil. No big deal. My bike always turns the oil dark quickly. Clutch material I guess? And I had a compression issue.....

Go show it to the seller. Never ride on a tire that has issues. Load it on a trailer and go see the seller.

Ha ha Chuck. Awesome. I like the wire wheels!

I think you hit the nail on the head. Someone else has been in here before me... there's Yamabond all over everything..

The discussion among mech buddies is they walk a bit during operation and it's not unheard of to see some lined up, not 3 out of 4 cylinders mind you...

Yep, the dremmel method is good. I've one is many times. Easier to run a bead of weld on the inside of the race. Shrinks and can easily be tapped out.

So, I'm installing Sean's HD oiling kit... I'm waiting for gaskets, rings, etc from Sean.... So cleaning up etc. Have a look at what I found in the pickup... Open to guesses, opinions, I have no idea. Maybe clutch material?! Oh, and found my compression issue... three of four pistons had the...

Glad you were able to keep her upright. That must have been a little scary

You could just leave it and let the coater deal with it?

What's the drivetrain? I see the slicks, skinnies and the hood.... Is she a little modified maybe?

I can't speak to the lowering vrs the progressive springs as I did them at the same time. Lowered and Progressive (and much needed fork seals). I would think, that lowering would have a significant effect due to the difference in the COG...? I'm no engineer, just an old Air Force engine mech...

I installed Progressive front springs and lowered it the required amount and found an amazing difference in handling. 1 1/4" maybe?? It's been a couple years. I do have the Car. wheels and Avon radials too. No changes in rear suspension other than moving things around to allow for the wider...

:rolleyes: ha ha ha...... I knew there was a pun there I'm just a bit slow.... Well, it's out now. Next is to pull the pistons and see how the rest of the cylinders are. And wrist pins....

Nope, can't figure it out... What's the punch line?

Pulled the front head... get ready for an email Sean...

Ordered some six piston calipers from Sean. Tired of having bad brakes!
