    Dreaded "0" ring facts

    I, like many others, would like to put this to rest once and for all. Speculation, hear-say and 21 years of hearing this supposedly problem over and over, it's time to deal with the facts and reality. I'll start out by saying there never was or is an oiling problem, period. I want to be...

    Fast Cruiser

    Met some guy on the road today and we exchanged a few pleasantries. He had a cruiser twin with flames on the tank and I could see no other identification. We raced for a short stretch and I left him but not as bad as I thought because he wasn't far behind in the mirror. Anybody have any idea...

    Enrichment circuit

    Started the bike today and let it warm up a bit. As the RPMs grew, I brought the choke lever up some and noticed a few pops in feeling the choke assembly. Could it be that the valves (?) in the enrichment circuit are sticking a bit and not sliding smoothly? That's what it felt like anyway...

    New Arabian Tank

    Now that's traveling in style. It's a go anywhere Ferrari except for the front battle lines unless you want to pick up female soldiers from the other side. :)

    Custom Max

    Wonder how much they sold this beast for. There is lots to like here. USD forks and those futuristic head lights. The space between the rear fender and tire could house an afterburner for those that can't quit smoking. Ever smoke a Harley?

    Supercharger

    If by any chance you get wiped by a V-Rod, he just might have a little extra installed that doesn't show. http://vhmotorsports.com/products/supercharger.html

    Mega-Max For 2008?

    I just received my copy of Cycle World where they have a short writeup of the future Max. Nothing earth shaking or new, but at least they are keeping the dream alive. :th_image003:

    Tire Mileage

    What kind of mileage can one expect from the stock front tire? :confused2:

    Brighter Stop Lights

    Many may already be aware that Sylvania has a variety of bulbs available to replace the 1157's. 2357LL (long lasting) is about 25% brighter when activating brakes and same as 1157 as far as running lights go.

    V-Boost Question

    There are several on this list with knowledge of running boost full time wide open. The thought of the idle sounding like it has race cams installed appeals to me. I have several questions and all answers would be appreciated. 1) At what rpm will it idle satisfactorily? 2) Will the carbs...

    Drivers Backrest

    If any of you out there have a back injury, this helped me. Broke my spine in two places a while back and even though it's healed, prolonged strain on it will make it complain. Hanging on to the bars at speeds will put that pressure through your spine. Here I made my own support out of a new...

    2nd Throttle

    If your right hand ever felt like it needed a rest on the longer cruises, a 2nd throttle is a big help right where you would relax it, hanging by your side. A quality mower throttle can be used for this purpose. Pulling up on it works just as good as a twist of the top one.

    Customized Stock Seat

    This is my third attempt to make the stock seat more comfortable. Each time one gets better at it and can truly say that it made a huge difference on the length of time I could bare to stay in the saddle. Now I can travel for hours without the need to stop and stretch. All three sections have...

    Carb Problems

    I was wondering Shawn if we could discuss the carbs on the Max and possibly come up with some answer to the problems that many (even new) Maxes experience. I've tried to get some answers from the Yahoo community on the subject but none were willing/able to diagnose the problem. I know several...

    Forward Controls

    If you're long legged, the stock controls on the Max won't do for a comfortable ride. Saw several that can be bought for around $500+. Mine don't look as good as theirs, but then I'm not entering it into any contests either. Most of my mods can be reversed to stock without much effort and those...
