I have been running the Ignitech unit with Vboost Control for several years now and have been satisfied with it. Got some cool mods working and some custom tuning. Awesome little box. I recently discovered that the Vboost Control portion was not working quite like I had assumed it was. When the...

I thought this was hilarious!

We got a welcomed break from the cold today and on a Saturday! I'm sitting on my porch drinking coffee and getting ready to go take care of all my domestic chores. I live about 15 miles outside of Tulsa on a very popular motorcycle route. Nicely paved backroad with some fun curves and very...

Bike has been running a little rough for a while. Smooths out and runs good in the upper RPM with a little popping from the exhaust when engine braking. I just figured it was time for a shotgun or a carb cleaning. Been a couple years since I had to do it. So, as part of the procedure I normally...

Went to the track this weekend for test and tune. First time at the track in about 3 years. I went out to test my new mods and Ignitech tune. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the ET and MPH. My reaction time and 60ft left a lot on the table. I was running a conservative tune on the Ignitech and...

First test n tune of the year for my local track. Forecast looks good. 65-70 degrees and sunny. Little breezy, though. Ready to try out my new mods!

I am looking for some wire terminals that go into the oe plastic wiring harness plugs as well as the ones that go into the Ignitech plug. I may need to purchase some of the plastic connectors as well. Anybody have a source for those things?

I've been using an Ignitech unit for a few years, now and this mod has been in the list the whole time. I had plenty of setbacks the last few years with trans and motor problems, raising babies, etc. But I finally got some time in the shop to tinker with it. Made a bracket to fit a microswitch...

Found this on my local craigslist... lmao

Anybody have any experience working on one of these? A friends of mine just bought one that had a bad stator, regulator and rotor. Somebody had already worked on it previously and I'm pretty sure that they swapped the two washers in the attached drawing. #3 and #9 are different thickness and OD...

So, first, a little back story... Beginning of summer I rebuilt the motor on my '94. I had pulled the motor for second gear fix and found the oil pump o-ring issue and some main bearing damage. I also discovered that somebody had been in the motor before. Both cam chain tensioner guides were...

This is not my ad and I don't know this guy. I really want to respond to it just to let him know how ridiculous his asking price is. Probably wouldn't do any good, though. I've ran into plenty just like him in other markets. According to the ad, he seems to think NADA quotes the value of the...

Not my ad, but in my area if anyone is interested, I could help acquire and ship stuff. https://tulsa.craigslist.org/mpo/d/1993-yamaha-max/6253206169.html

Making my second annual summer trip to Michigan this week. I'll be in and around Ludington August 18th or 19th and we are staying until the 28th. Weather is looking kinda wet, but I don't care. If I get to go ride just one day, it will be worth hauling the bike along. Hit me up if you have time...

Just rebuilt the engine on my 94 a couple of weeks ago and opted to install a K&N oil filter cartridge. This morning was finally time for the break-in oil change. When I removed the filter cover, one of the metal ends was separated from the filter media. The glue seems to have split in 2 places...

Life has been crazy for the past couple of years! My bike was having 2nd gear issues a few years ago and I was just waiting for funds to repair it. I rode it anyway doing the 1-3 shift for a couple of years. I changed jobs (no more traveling) and we had a baby in November 2015. Wifey is now 8...

I know we have quite a few MI resident Maxers here, so I thought I would see what people think about the place. Anybody ever go there? Just trying to get some more info. My wife and in-laws are all from the Ludington area and we are planning a trip up in August and dragging all the toys along.

I am working on reconstructing an ATV seat (Yamaha Warrior 350) that was left outside in the weather. Finding a cover is no problem, but the foam is also ruined. The foam appears and feels like the OEM Vmax seat. Any idea what material to use and where to get it? I have seen upholstery foam to...

I'm thinking about building a custom header and wondering where do you get the flanges that the exhaust studs go through and the end pieces that go into the port on the head? I've looked at a few websites and haven't found anything yet. Any ideas where to look?

Any members around Southern Minnesota or Northern Iowa? It's that time of year and I'm on the move for work. Currently in Mankato, MN and I will be heading in a generally southerly direction as I meander around the central states to different jobsites. I will be at my current location for the...
