    low oil pressure

    I was thinking about trying a different gauge also, the one i have is from COO, & yea it's not very responsive till a fer rev's. The oil pressure that is. Hey Sean, are your pressure readings with a stock pump or an overdrive pump. I might be interested in a pump setup like that if possible.

    Good imagination & too much time on your hands is not a good combination.

    I have an issue, need some help

    sounds like your midrange is too fat, loading up while cruising, then has to get cleaned out. My bike does the same thing when I ride around with the wife on back for a while. I agree with no less than 8 disks, 12 or so would be better.

    Shrink Porting

    small ports & high port velocity is perfect. Couple years ago Car Craft mag. built a 383 chevy & put Edelbrock's smallest, small block heads, on it. pretty much for a 283. Thing made like 500 hp with a great torque curve. bigger is better only applies as rpm range goes up. big ports kill...

    New Venture Carbs

    heated carbs are for sleds, they run coolant through them to keep them from icing up on very cold days, otherwise they hurt performance, just heating the fuel also. TPS is probably tied into the timing somehow?????

    Friend of mine just got a '08 night rod. haven't rode it yet, but we went out last night & riding next to him at about 80 mph it looked like that bike had pretty bad head shake. Almost like a max at 130 mph. when we stopped he was complaining about it & wanted to check it over today.

    Please help. My Max runs like garbage.

    Hey 4gasm, were you refering to my post of my setup when you said go back to stock. thinking of going with Morleys setup anyway. till then, you think the stock needles, jets, & slide springs are better than the dynojet stuff. What about the hole in the slides. I think I have some 150 mikuni...

    Please help. My Max runs like garbage.

    Not to steal this thread, but, i have supertrapp s.o's, K&N, T-boost- 3000 rpm, & stage one kit. Seems to run good, synch's out fine, pulls good all gears. I do get a tiny bit of black smoke if only cruising for a while then getting on it. Do you think i would be further ahead to go with your...

    Solid motor mounts

    Damn, Sean. Why aren't you selling yourself on here more often. I own a heating & cooling business & I sell myself whenever possible. for $75.00 it isn't worth turning on the lathe, because the real work starts when you install them.
