    Polaris re designs their Indian

    I'm still surprised that Polaris bought Indian in the first place. I think they bought the rights and whatever outdated tech and tooling for close to 400 million. In Canada at least, there is tons of momentum behind Polaris motorcycles. When it comes to a big twin, they're looked at as a higher...

    Air scoop oxidation??

    Yeah that stuff's tough to get rid of. The oxidation takes place under the clear. I stripped mine using a gel style paint remover that i got from home depot. Its nice to work with because it doesn't run, but is corrosive stuff. Wear gloves and crack a window for sure. After stripping the clear...

    I think this is what I need...

    I'm still exploring my options here, but I'm leading toward the 'open' end cap and no disks. I've found what I think are two options for end caps. One is a three inch and one four. 3" apparently has a flow roughly equal to 6-8 discs. That sounds perfect. Can I attach these with regular...

    I think this is what I need...

    Hi guys, Ive been searching and going through previous threads and I think I have it sorted. I bought a set of used ss supertrapp slip ons without discs, hardware or end caps. Could someone please tell me if this kit has everything I need to get rolling...

    Good Detective Work on Obama

    Speaking as an outsider[Canuck]. I think the U.S. would benefit greatly by filing this and many other things in the 'who gives a fuck' file. These debates only serve to dupe and distract people from issues that actually matter. Like him or hate him, you're entitled. But judge the guy on his...

    Supertrapp slip-ons

    Either would be fine. Prefer stainless though.

    low oil pressure fix, need some part numbers please

    Sorry I haven't updated this post yet. I've got the gauge installed. Unfortunately I think I'm getting ready to pull the pan. Oil pressure reads 60-80 lbs at start up. As the bike heats up(30 mins) the pressure falls to between 25 and 35 lbs during operation. Reads no pressure on the gauge at...

    low oil pressure fix, need some part numbers please

    That's I was after thanks. I hadn't heard that later models came with a longer pick-up? That's good news.

    low oil pressure fix, need some part numbers please

    Thanks again guys. On everyone's advice I bought one of the gauges you guys recommended. Should hopefully be here this week. What should I expect for 'normal' range or numbers. I've read 3-4 pounds at idle. What about during operation? Thanks Dave

    low oil pressure fix, need some part numbers please

    Hard to tell how the bike was taken care of in that regard. I haven't ridden the bike yet so I don't have much to offer in the way of feedback and nothing has happened that makes me suspect low oil pressure. No warning light when it's sitting idling in my garage but that doesn't count for much...

    low oil pressure fix, need some part numbers please

    Hi guys, I've been reading a lot about the potential low oil pressure associated with that 'o' ring pushing out the siphon in the fuel pump. I've heard two stories on this: The first is that this is a result of not letting the bike warm up enought before riding it hard The other thing I...

    how many wires?

    Hey fellas, I'm trying to gain a better understanding of how these lights work. If I was to go to a 2 wire light on the front, as I understand it I would lose my running lights. With this in mind, would it matter if I chose lights with a dual or single filament bulb given the loss of this...

    how many wires?

    Thanks guys. I reread my question and realized the wording of my question was a little misleading. I was asking about both the front and rear lights. Question answered! Thanks, Dave

    how many wires?

    Hi guys, Great forum! Could someone please tell me how many wires each my front and turn signals should have? The bike came with mismatched, bitched up sportster minilights. I'm a little cofused as to what would work best. Thanks very much Dave

    grab bar for 2002 max.

    Hey everyone, I recently purchased a 2002 vmax. The bike came with the taller, padded 'sissy' bar. Id like to replace it with the lower grab bar. If anyone has one to sell or trade for the larger bar, I'd be very interested. I'll be at the Toronto supershow this weekend if someone had one...
