    Is the "Furber" fix really worth it??

    You should probably have looked at the instructions when you got your fix washer… IF you did,… you wouldn’t be seeing the ridiculous things that you are here. Read the instructions carefully do the fix properly then come back here and apologize because you didn’t do those things in the...

    Is the "Furber" fix really worth it??

    I read many of the replies here,… & quite frankly, many of them range from uninformed to outright ludicrous. The FACT is that the ‘Fix’ (done PROPERLY) WORKS, & works WELL. It’s MUCH simpler than most of the other suggestions posted here, & again, more effective (DONE PROPERLY) PS. The...

    Suggestions for stainless 4-1 that is not too loud

    Talk to Mike Lees at starriderperformance.com (He's as good a guy to deal with as John at UFO wasn't...!) If you still have that UFO system, he can provide quieter muffler options, or sell you a complete system, well priced, that will meet your needs. (Please tell him John from SportMax sent...

    Mounting a 200/50R18 rear tire on a Gen1

    As I had said earlier in this thread, the best & easiest way to get a wide tire into a VMax is to slide the 'pumpkin' in with the wheel/tire...This also makes it easier to use the axle as an alignment tool, & hold the spacer firmly inside the wheel, until everything is firmly in plce, then put...

    Mounting a 200/50R18 rear tire on a Gen1

    One more tip: Again, with lowered bikes, the front part of the fender (the indent where the seat latches are located) will contact the tire. This can be resolved by trimming out the indent, or just letting the tire do that for you... (the plastic from the fender will not hurt the tire at all, &...

    Mounting a 200/50R18 rear tire on a Gen1

    Something else I just noticed in the pics... With a wide tire like this, & lowered as well, I would suggest removing the plastic inner fender (screwed/clipped to the gas tank)

    Mounting a 200/50R18 rear tire on a Gen1

    A 200 IS work to get into a stock swingarm, particularly with lowered shocks...Requires the spacer moved from right to left side, & the fender shifted right to clear as well... A couple of things to comment on/clear up here: The clip on the cushdrive does NOT need to be removed to put the...

    Need help to be able to help...

    I'm still pretty much of a 'newbie' here, even after all this time, in many ways...so I need some help learning about this site... One of the big things that would help, is how to setup to receive notifications, particularly in a 'digest' form, once a day or so, so I could help answer questions...

    disappointed parts supplier

    PS. If I had known about this thread earlier, I would have answered it earlier...(I'm NOT shy...) & a BIG SORRY to the other seat vendors here, that had to take time out of their busy days as well, to answer/deal with something that they shouldn't have had to... ...(It's that time of...

    disappointed parts supplier

    I have very little control over over the turnaround time on SportMax seats, as I already have explained to you, more than once, Steven...Particularly once the season gets busy...When his daytime job(upholstery shop) gets busy, things slow down even more...(I know how tough it is, after a long...

    Found BAD news about my 95

    We've had quite a few of these kind of triples come thru here, & have never had one twisted from this kind of fall; It's pretty simple to grind the factory stop off both sides, then drill & tap for a similiar sized Allen head bolt...Works just fine, & no reason to replace anything else...
