    Valve Adjustment

    Doing my first Valve Adjustment on my 1990 VMax and I found 7 tight valves, 3 intakes measuring .003, + 4 exhaust measuring .009. I have the service manual and I'm thinking the cross reference chart is not correct? One Exhaust measured .009- .223mm with a 268 shim installed and the chart calls...

    Side Stand Switch Question

    Got the new Regulator/ Rectifier (Heavy Duty Unit) from ElectroSport, installed it and I no longer have an issue with the Bike stalling when the side stand is down, in Neutral with the Clutch engaged! This might be an interesting troubleshooting tool regarding charging system problems?

    Side Stand Switch Question

    I'll be checking that as soon as I get a new Regulator/ Rectifier installed. It is presently dissassembled. Bike was not charging and after some trouble shooting found this too be bad. I have one ordered.

    Side Stand Switch Question

    I have a 1990 VMax and when I start it up with the Side Stand down, Clutch pulled in, in Neutral. It will stall if I let the Clutch out even though I'm still in Neutral? But if I pull the Side Stand up and put it in gear everything is fine! Shouldn't this bike idle in Neutral with the side...

    Vacuum Line Question

    Anyone know what the vacuum line on the #1 Carb is for? #2,3, and #4 carbs have the plugs on them and theses are the spots that you hook up your vacuum gauges. I want to know if the #1 vacuum line is needed because I want to inject a hydrogen, oxygen mixture into these ports. Thanks!

    1990 V Max with Side Car (Gittyup!)

    Wow! Those are some REALLY NICE RIGS!:clapping: Take a look at my idea to help keep my unit on the road when going around right hand sweepers too fast, especially with no weight in the sidecar. After some trial and error I set this outrigger wheel for optimum height and steering angle! It works...
