Sorry to say the fading in the clutch came back...just took longer. I went out and bought Gaffer Steel braided lines all around the bike. Looks good, feels twice as good, and most importantly.....problem solved!

Hey guys, just a quick update. I think the problem is solved. Well, bled the clutch again, and again more slipping in high gears when opening throttle quickly. Tied the lever shut over 2 days. Same thing...fine in the morning, then about 10 miles in it'll start slipping again. Same coming...

Well, I moved it up 2" and it's definitely better now. But it's right at that point where I look at the highway so I'm kind of half and half through the windshield and not which feels a little weird, but I expected that. I do notice air coming under the bars on the sides and giving me small...

I can, about 2 inches max up. Gonna try that when I get home...but when i duck 2 inches in my riding position it doesn't seem to help much. Only when I lean forward towards the shield does it help.

Well, I went to the dealer and bought the Mini III windshield. Looks very nice on the bike! Only one problem, on the 20 mile highway commute this morning, my head was vibrating my fillings out! Wind buffetting on the helmet was almost unbearable. I've never ridden with a windshield in my...

Thanks for the advice! He's making me a front seat as I type this!!

Have any of you seen or have the Mini III windshield that comes from Yamaha? Is this something new this year I wonder? If you have it, please post or send me pics of it on your bike if it's not too much trouble. I think I've decided on that one with the "wings" graphic. Can anyone estimate...

I might agree, but what about the clutch engaging right off the bar after bleeding, and then it fading all the way to the very end after a day? I know for a fact I'm not spinning the rear tire at the regular starts I'm making. I would think I could tell if I was spinning on full accel as well...

well, it's slipping alright...in about 2-3 gear full throttle, you know when you load the engine a bit. I thought about the air thing....bad banjo...how can I tell? Wouldn't it be leaking? I've never adjusted them so I'd think they'd be tight still from the factory 2 years ago. I've only got...

No problems with the clutch for 2 years. Last weekend I replaced the clutch fluid with Standard Dot 4 brake fluid as the manual said, and bled it. No problems and I've got a good consistant pull with plenty of engagement. Then, afternoons when I ride home from work the clutch only engages at...

My seat pan is cracked from an attempt to modify a couple years ago. I was wondering if anyone has just a front seat pan laying around...no need for the foam and cover even. If so and you could spare to donate it to a worthy cause I'll pay to ship it to Colorado Springs. I need a solid one to...

Ok, the headwinds lamp may stick out too far from my analysis, so I've narrowed it down to this lamp from J&P cycles...and other places too. Take a look at the mounting hardware on the bottom and tell me if you think I'll run into mounting problems with the VMAX. Thanks!! Trent

Anyone know where I can get black handlebars for the VMAX? Don't want to powder coat. Want 7/8" to match the mounts. Like slightly wider than stock for better handling. Would like more rise, less pullback, but not a drag bar or straight bar. Can't find them...most are chrome...

I haven't had my headlight off yet, do you think I'll run into any problems with space behind the lamp bucket? This one seems more pointed in the back and not as shallow as the originals I've seen on Ebay for reference.

Just asked this on the new VMOA forum as well but when I have a question it seems I go to two sites now of valuable experience. VMOA forum and VMF...what are the relationships between the two? The Yahoo Groups and message lists were the same way. VMAXTech and VMOATech. Why not join forces or...

Shawn, are you asking for a pic of the Mariah? It's a bottom mount. Any fabrication? Also, the stock one seems shallower, so any problem you think with the fit? Is the stock the same size? 5 3/4"? Thanks! Trent #4060

Getting closer to getting a new headlight for the max. Wanting to use an aftermarket headlight/bucket. Can you tell me the size of the stock one? Thinking of 5 3/4 Headwinds Mariah Bullet. Gives me the look I'm after. Any advice you have on mounting aftermarket lights...

Re: Dale walker exhaust and jetting? If you want, PM me with your email and I'll send you a pic of my Holeshots (black) with a good sound clip....I think you will really like them. Some out there have bad blood with Dale, but he's been nothing but excellent to me and his customer service has...

Not square or round, but what do you think of this? It's from a 1992 FZR 1000 and I think it looks mean. Now, to find out what the dimensions and how to fit it will be a different story! But, where there's a will??
