I have been thinking about adding an oil cooler for a while, but searching for a bolt on kit has been hard to find. Found some from japan that cost an arm and a leg. I ran the idea past John at PCW but he said the coolers they use are to restrictive. (there like a radiator. Oil goes into a a...

This is my 99 R6 front wheel conversion done by PCW. Gave them my forks, that needed rebuilding anyway, triple tree and front axle. the front forks are machined to clear the wider brake rotor location, as are the brake caliper mounts. Spacers are made to fit the Vmax axle to the R6 wheel. Only...

Entered Bikes in the Valley street class today at Lebanon Valley Dragway. First thing i noticed is no one rode to the event, all inclosed trailers. Second, every "Street" bike is a stretched, air shifted Haybusa, GS1100 or old KZ1000 with a licence plate bolted on. Worked through 3 rounds and...

I installed a dyna 3000 ignition on my 98 Max mainly because i needed a rev limiter. Im interested in its ignition advance and retard ability but have a unique issue. The directions state the map sensor must be attached to the #2 cylinder to work. But i have VGas carbs and in John Cornells...

Story behind this one...... A Drag racing buddy of mine was looking for a 2009 VMAX on the star vmax fourm when he recived an offer to buy this 1998. He bought it, rode it for a week, decided it wasn't what he was looking for. But it was everything i was looking for! Short list of mods include...

I have recently installed COPs off a 2000 gsxr 600 and have had bad results. The bike will not run but gets what apperes to be proper spark and fuel. I first thought it was a carb problem because i hadn't ridden it sence it started to snow and every other problem was the carbs but this time it...

I was syncing my carbs yesterday and while i was ajusting them i heard a ticking noise coming frome the rear cylinder head. Its not horribly loud but enough to cause concern. I removed the valve covers and checked the clearances and they are all in spec. No visible problems with the cam shafts...

After searching for an exhaust system with a deep rumble and the ability to retain the center stand, I decided on a Marks performance exhaust. I e-mailed mark with some questions on what setup would work with my bike, then I waited. Two weeks latter he got back to me. He said his computer was...

I have 96 VMax with 23,000 miles and no modifications. My problem is after the bike warms up and i take off, it seems to lose a cylinder randomly. it will surge and pop out the exhaust and in to the air box. but after about 5 miles it goes away. then every once in a while it will pop in the...
