Thanks for the info, Kyle! It kinda threw me when he stated that it was bored to 1360. I've read about the 1300 Venture swapout, 1428, 1500, and 1570 big-bore builds. But I've never heard of a 1360. Not that they don't exist, I just ain't read anything about one - and I'm definitely no expert on...

I've seen this ad get reposted a few times in the past while. The ad just seems odd to me for some reason, I can't put my finger on it. http://greenville.craigslist.org/mcy/5706216263.html What do yall think?

Tried to PM ya....

LOL!!! :rofl_200: :eusa_dance: :clapping:

For openers, somebody had RURNT the look of this bike! But for an 04 with 20k on it, maybe it'd be worth someone else's time to put stock body parts and such back on it and have a decent ride or flip it for a profit? http://tricities.craigslist.org/mcy/5346265011.html

Man as awesome as that ride would be, I'm a de facto single dad till my wife gets home from an internship in Alaska. So unfortunately I'd need a trailer. UNLESS!!! I may be able to sweet talk one of my coworkers to tag along.... ;)

Out of the wild blue yonder with this one... what's NC's trailer laws like? I live in Gatlinburg TN, and we're about as lax as it gets on trailers - no tag needed, don't even think you need lights on short ones. :P

That thang still available?

I kinda was afraid of that, especially on the smaller ones. I was kinda hopeful ones off an XS11 would do it.

Zup errbody? So like, it sucks that nobody makes 15" radials. But I'm wondering if any Yamaha shaft-drive wheels would interchange with the Vmax? Found that the XS Eleven came with a 17" rear/19" front, and the Special had a 16" rear. And I kinda like the seven-spoke ones... sorta...

I'm thinking if I do it, it'll be on another set of OEMs. Do that, pods, and jets, but keep everything to put it back to original. And maybe a 16/40 sprocket combo if the power is there.

I have no clue, but whatever's in there is riveted in. I'm kinda with you on keeping it stock, but she wants it louder(love at first sight). And I'm sure if I debaffle it, it'll need pod filters and a re-jet too. T'would be a different aminal altogether. I'd REALLY like to talk her into a...

I have an 82 Suzuki GS300. I look like a circus bear on the friggin thing. Just more motivation to hunt down a Vmax, I tell myself. Seriously though, it's my wife's - she found one she wanted and jumped on it. It's nice for what it is, but she wants it a bit louder. Not straight pipes loud...

Hi yall. Is anyone running a 21" front setup on their bike? I see a lot of 17" and 18" conversions on here, but the asthetics in my opinion are a little bit off. Not knocking the swap, especially from a safety standpoint... just wondering if anyone's done a swap on the front like that to restore...

Pretty please???

My main thIng with them is the stories I've been told by people who use them. One dude ran a set in his Dodge pickup(understanding it's a different animal) and went 10,000 miles before he changed his oil - it was still clear. That suggests a lot less frequent oil changes, just wonder if that'd...

Hey y'all! Just checking in for the occasional pestering . Had a thought cross my mind - gapless rings seal better but make more friction, negating the benefits in power. So, would it be ill-advised to run a low-tension oil control and a gapless top ring? ONLY the gapless top ring? As in no 2nd...

Yes. I agree totally. If nothing else, for all us broke folks. :P

(Clutches heart in agony) OUCH! Why can't this happen when I have money?!?!?! Anywho, that's a killer deal, looks like. Very tough looking, aftermarket blinkers, Supertrapps, that'd be money well spent.

Kijiji says no longer available - nevermind. :(
