    Icon motorcycle outfit

    Hi. I guess Icon is a big brand in USA but here in Norway it is impossible to get hold of. Personally I think the clothes look bad ass. My question is : is this a good brand ? Are the quality and good ? As of today I am wearing a non expensive BullFighter jacket and pants, but my experience is...

    Changing the handlebar grips

    Hi. I am really having a hard time getting the right grip off, the throttle grip. Is there a trick to get this off or do I just need to use raw power ? The left one went off easy..

    Recommended slip-ons

    :punk: By the way, what will happen if you install more discs on each exhaust ? Like 16 instead of 8 ?

    Recommended slip-ons

    Hi. When I bought the open end caps for the exhaust, there also came a pair of I guess closed ones. I tried the closed solution and I was able to ride the bike without airplugs. But it looks kind of funny driving around with a closed exhaust....and I started thinking "is there actually enough...

    Recommended slip-ons

    Hi. Yupp that sounds right. But I remember I read somewhere that it would be able to install up to 24 discs on each side, and the more discs you had the louder it would be. Just by using 8 on each side and the open endcap makes it so loud that I actually need to use earplugs under the helmet.

    Recommended slip-ons

    Well I managed to install the slip-ons after some hours work. Removing the old exhaust was a tiny struggle, and installing one of the slip-ons went fine. But the second one was a hell of a challenge. I beleieve I spent 3 hours to make it fit due to the fact that the bike had changed some degrees...

    How to remove the old exhaust

    Hi. Sorry for asking this silly question ; can someone point me in the right direction when it comes to removing the old mufflers to replace it with a supertrapp slip-on. I cannot seem to figure out which bolts I need to remove to be able to rempove the original. :ummm: Should be very simple but...

    Fuel issues

    Yupp, the switch is always on when riding. I saw some info on youtube from the newest version of the v-max, and it seems like that model has both a fuel indicator (showing how much fuel there is left) and a reserve fuel indicator. If that is correct, shouldn't it be possible to install on my...

    Coating coming off

    Hi. A bit difficult to explain ; but what do you do when the black "coating" on the motor and on the clutch and brake fluid holder peels off ? A lot of blank spots are visible and it aint' looking nice. Do you use some sort of fire resistant black coating ?

    Changing the handlebar grips

    Sean, it would be great if you could keep me updated after testing the grips you refer to.

    Changing the handlebar grips

    Hi. I don't like the original grips. They give me pain after a while when riding the bike and I don't like the way they look. Are there any spesific you would recommand ? Black and sporty... Any websites where I can see different pictures of them ?

    Stock airfilter vs 4 individual

    OK, thanx for clearing things out for me :)

    Stock airfilter vs 4 individual

    Hi. I see that several producers offer a 4 individual air filter solution instead of using the stock one. My noobie questions is : what is the advantage of using four instead of one ? And where do you actually install them ? Do you need to remove parts to install them ?

    Recommended slip-ons

    OK, thanks for the answer. I have never installed slip-ons before so this will be a new experience for me. You mention "installing the open endcaps". Could you try to explain to me what it is ? I hate to say it but I have never been to Nordkapp. But I have always wanted to be there. Did you...

    Recommended slip-ons

    So I decided to go for some black supertrapps and some main jets. For those of you who use supertrapps, did you buy or do you suggest any other accessories (like additional discs, open ends caps etc...) ?

    Start the bike in gear

    Start the bike in gear

    Yes it was the first thing i checked that the stand was up. If the bike isn't in neutral nothing happends when trying to start the bike. Not a "click". Nothing. The oil lamp just turns red. Strange thing. I thought it might be some sort of protection.
