    UFO dragstar pipe

    Hey Man - I've always been here, just not as often as I would like. Returned in 2009, picked up a 09 Victory 8 ball cruiser with my pocket of deployment cash that was burning a hole in the pocket. You wouldnt believe how many times I've been on ebay or cycle trader checking out the vmax...

    UFO dragstar pipe

    I feel obligated to add my opinion here in the hopes that I can save someone time and money. I purchased the dragstar almost right when it came out. My riding buddy had a 4-1 Kerker with regular street baffle, and I thought it was too quiet for my taste - so the dragstar was my next step...

    Respect of wearing surplus?

    I agree with all. I would like you all to consider the respect of wearing the POW/MIA patch on jackets, bandannnas, vests, hats, etc., and not knowing the name of our most recent POW from Afghanistan. Many of you may keep current with this stuff, so if the shoe fits... I cornered...

    great day

    Just wanted to post about the topeka dyno event. I met up with some great guys, got the bike dyno'ed, finally broke into 120, and got lots of great ideas for my bike. Everyone was super nice, and I appreciate the hospitality shown by all. Thanks to everyone that rode on saturday. Chris

    UFO Exhaust

    Clay, I think that "warning" from Eureka Springs PD was addressed in earlier posts, so I didnt want to insult intelligence among us, but thanks for bringing it up. I have the framed pic out in my shop. Why you think UFO pipes arent what they are cracked up to be, well, I'm not sure what you...

    UFO Exhaust

    To answer your question, yes, I have tried the new UFO exhaust. 4-1 dragstar. The look is, well, great. The pics on his website do show more of an upturned tip, and mine is parallel to the ground. My buddy has the kerker, and it just sounds too high pitched at acceleration, and not as growly...

    Which exhaust for new V-Max - LOUD

    Dragstar is loud. I can attest that you will get many questions about what type of bike it is, etc., so if you dont want attention, go with the kerker...you can always change out baffles to suit your taste.

    gunk in crank vent

    Took the airbox off tonight while changing main jets (sean !), and noticed some yellow-brown liquid from where the crank vent tube attaches to the lower airbox. The double-headed vent tubes going to the velocity stacks were clear of any obstructions Took the inner compartment apart, and this...

    morley and ufo pipe

    Clay, Had to throw that last part in there, huh? Wait until I change some jetting around, then we'll talk. I have read that well-running stock bikes run anywhere from 105-110, and there are always exceptions. You may be a better rider, you may have redlined yours in each gear, or maybe I...

    morley and ufo pipe

    Ah Hah! I have successfully attached a re-sized picture! (that took longer than checking all 4 plugs...) Really didnt know what to expect. I have been reading for a long time about how kerker was the best, stage 7, k&n air filter, etc., and how the new UFO pipe is supposed to outperform the...

    Cycle One Off

    I purchased the monster tach setups he has. The price was close to 800, and thats alot of money for me... So I called frequently. I stayed in touch with him via phone and email, and he either called me back quickly, or emailed the same day. Maybe my persistence paid off, as I had a product...

    fuel around boots

    That was one of the first things I did, something I learned from this site. Boots are brand-new, no cracks or leaks.... Still scratching my head on this one. Chris

    Vmax owners age?

    33. Its funny seeing all these younger guys here on post telling me the vmax is too fast, and then getting an R1 or Hayabusa for their first bike...because its cool to them. Chris

    fuel around boots

    Hi everyone, Just recently I noticed fuel weeping from somewhere around the left rear carb where it joins the vboost boots. I have not had the carbs off since a few weeks ago, and there was no immediate fuel in the designated area. This seemed to happen almost overnight. Can anyone...

    all I did when I installed mine was to run right into the existing tach wires. No problem. PM if you need Chris
