anyone knows a thread on "how to change the fork oil" 10/20w - has anyone tried a higher weight - could that cause a problem with the seals ? What's the deal with the power steering fluid - has anyone used it instead of oil. Thanks guys It's better to ask first, right. .:whistlin:

Just wondering what the masses do for air in the front forks. I know the manual says 7-14 pounds ( if I remember right ) but I also remember somebody saying, then don't put any in there at all and it's better that way. Do you follow the recommendations from the owners manul on this or...

Went on Friday night. Seen one Max there, it was for sale and was in rough shape. 97 and I might have bought for parts but that too would have been embarrassing. Said to my buds, that's it, I'm not comming back. This is the best Max they could find to put in this show. I'm totally pissed off...

Well since I busted my wallet on a new battery I fiqured I'd better invest in a tender. I picked up a Schumacker at the local Wally Mart. It seems well made and very heavy for such a little unit. Cant say that it's really good but for 40$ I think its ok. It comes with the handy plug which is...

I met a guy yesterday who can transform just about any bike into a trike. Does anyone know where I can see a triked Vmax. I'd really like to see one. There may come a day when I'm just too old to ride and it could mean the difference between riding a Vtrike or not riding at all ! Can you...
