    How hot does the engine oil in vmax run?

    Hi, I'm wondering how hot the engine oil in vmax runs because i recently stripped a thread for a screw that is holding the oil pump while doing the HD oiler kit. The thread was only half stripped so i applied loctite to it. On loctite's webpage it states that a 5Nm torque gives about 24Nm...

    HD oiler question

    The threads came out with the screw. Can a tap make the same size screw fit or only bigger screws? It's now locked in with loctite 243. It's supposed to be oil tolerant. Not sure if it'll do though. I'm gonna try to confirm that it works or find another way to fix it before putting back the...

    HD oiler question

    Hi I'm trying to install the Sean's HD oiler kit. When I removed the clutch basket i saw that the gear already is yellowed plastic does this mean that the HD oiler kit already is installed. Also the orange o-ring has a black o-ring over it, and it is still unpopped. Also how should i reuse...

    How do you change your rear shocks?

    Hi, I've just gotten myself a pair of 444's. Is the centerstand enough to jack up the rear to replace the shocks? I'm thinking that the rear part might collapse if I remove both OEM shocks. Anyone with experience?' Thanks!

    replacing steering head bearings benefits?

    I read somewhere on this forum that if I want to coat the triple trees then i should leave the old steering head bearings on so that the holes don't get the coating. If that's true then i might as well wait until after it's been coated :) Thanks!
