yup, started having the thought today..... here's why... My, now ex, wife and I have separated, I had enough of her shit and told her to leave. She's moving to NFLD in September, which leaves me with a house, mortgage all the bills.... but most importantly, 3 of my kids (we have 4). I realized...

So my bike is all back together and ready to roll, the only thing stopping me right now is front brakes.... they barely grab. Let me start from the beginning. Calipers were removed, lines left hanging on the bike, and placed in a box with other parts. Without thinking :bang head: I...

I love you guys!! (In a non ghey way, not that there's anything wrong with that...) Without you guys, my bike would be scrap metal!!! :punk:

Ok, so after many, many, many, many dollars and hours I was prepping to go for a test flight Saturday. First ride since my accident last August. I had installed the shifter and was installing the peg bracket when I realized that when we fabricated and welded on a new mount to the frame, we must...

So I buttoned up the motor last night, new Orings on the elbow and the screw for the stator (timing hole)... anyway I filled coolant and oil, replaced filter (not in that order :rofl_200:) and fired the bike up. I still have a high idle. I can bring the idle down by twisting the throttle...

OK.... I took my stooooopid pill.... Please see pic below, anyone know where it attaches too (the spring)? Please dumb it down for me.... It's the rear brake lever, I have the spring attached (Assumingly correct) from the lever to the light indicator, but I'm not sure on the placement of the...

Top Ten Reasons Harley Riders Don't Wave Back: 10. Afraid it will invalidate warranty. 9. Leather and studs make it too heavy to raise arm. 8. Refuse to wave to anyone whose bike is already paid for. 7. Afraid to let go of handlebars because they might vibrate off. 6. Rushing wind would...

Meant to ask this earlier, so my apologies... I picked up a set of Engine Guards yesterday (thanks Toolman!), anyone know what size bolts/nuts I need to pick up to mount them? Not sure that it matters, but my motor mounts are stock.

A couple questions for the group: - What type/brand of grease is recommended for the axles? Front and rear. I'm going to have both wheels off this week, so figure I might as well lube them up! - I need to swap my rotors (both front and rear) over to new wheels, I've read from different...

Crowbar or not, I'da beet his ass!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbTZkZTYkaM&feature=player_embedded :bang head:

Anyone order from http://www.mikesayers.com/vmax/screws.htm lately? I was going to place an order but thought I would ask the question first... Is Morley an option? What's the better option? I'm not looking to do all the bolts, but carbs and master cylinder covers for sure. Not sure what else...

So as most of you know, I kinda .....uh.... dented my max last August. :bang head: Thanks to Mike (mabdcmb) I now have a complete front end with progressive springs, fork brace, fender, handle bars and shifter! CaptainKyle for a Rad and Fan! and Bill Kratzenberg for a Headlight Mount <-- free of...

anyone have the link handy for the parts micofiche? I searched and struck out.... ya ya, I suck.... blah blah blah.... :ummm:

Ok guys, so I wrecked my bike (and my leg!) on August 2nd.... I have an almost complete parts list and some ballpark prices from Morley. If I have to go that route then so be it. My challenge is funds. Accident was my fault and I only carry Fire & Theft on our bikes, so the repairs are mine to...

k, time to bring out my stupid.... Will a water pump from an '88 fit my '02? If not, what year parts is my starting point?

k guys, have a look: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=475025&id=879200584&l=d4a6bc90a8

So I decided to go out for a quick rip on Monday. Was in traffic behind 4 cars (one lane country road), pulled out to pass once it was clear at the same time 2nd car back pulled out too. He completed his pass and pulled back in, this is when I could see the oncoming lane of traffic and an...

So I went out for a ride tonight, pulled away from a light, went to shift into 2nd and all I found with my foot was air... looked down, shifter was hanging. Checked traffic, and pulled off the road, dismounted and quickly realized that the circlip (sp?) was missing. I put the shifter back on the...

Ok, time to ask a couple questions.... I've never changed plug wires before and although it's a simple task I do have a couple questions. My motive for changing the wires is to see if it helps with the stumble I experience when the bike is hot and @ idle or low RPM (under 2K) Coils, caps and...
