    Is this normal?!?

    I walked into my garage and found a small hole in my water pump housing case and a huge puddle under the bike. Attached is the picture. Is there supposed to be a hole there or plug? There seems a machined indentation there. Sean, if this ain't normal, I'm gonna need a water pump case :rofl_200:

    Howdy everyone, I am dialing in my Morley carb Kit and I have a bit of a stumble around 4K. I have a Kerker with the 2.5 inch baffle the bike makes good power all the way through the range except for the 4K hiccup and slight coughing around 3K. Also almost a rock solid idle @ 1K I read up on...

    Speedo Recommendations

    Howdy folks, I'm looking for something digital to replace my old analog speedo that will bolt in without alot of work. Yes I know I'm lazy but I told myself that from now on all of my bods are going to be bolt-on or something easy for my mechanic to do. Thanks in advance

    ROT Ralley Auston, TX 6/9-6/12

    Any other MAX riders heading to Austin? The ride wouldn't be as brutal if I had someone to right the 3.5 hours to get there from DFW.

    A good head scratcher

    Howdy all, Here's a bit of a stumper. When the bike ignition is turned on, the following happens: The headlight does not light up [fuse good] high beam or low beam. Signal lights work, horn works. When the button is placed to run: 1. The Vboost mechanism does not actuate 2. Nothing...

    New wheel combo

    I finally got the Cycle One-Off 17" rear and YZF600R front mounted. They had to do some machining work to the front forks and calipers but it looks great and handles like a new bike. I also had the forks rebuilt with progressives. Also new EBC rotors of course. I hope you like the pic.

    A bit of a head scratcher

    The bike has been running rough after a rejet and a bowl level adjustment so we tried to do a sync. Upon putting that morgan carbtune on it we notices no vacuum reading out of carb # 2. You had to goose it to 3K to get it to read anything. We cracked the airbox and noticed that the diaphram was...

    yzf600R/Thundercat Front wheel

    Hi folks, I purchased a YZF600R wheel for my 85 to match the 17" rear I'm getting from Tom at Cycle one-off. I have read that it's a direct bolt-on for a pre-92 bike. The new EBC rotors I bought for the Max bolted right on to the wheel. I've also read that I can use my original axle. Before I...

    Where to pick up used carbs?

    Hi folks, I'm getting ready to service the carbs and I was looking for a good source for used carbs besides e-bay. Instead of rebuilding the set on my '85. I'd like to purchase a set that's alot newer and rebuild that set. That way I can take my time to get it right and keep my bike on the road.

    Upper frame inserts

    Does anyone know where I can purchase the frame inserts that clip onto the frame just behind the dummy tank? I've seen them on several Max's on the net but I can't seem to find who makes them.

    Fuel issues

    Hi folks, I was running my bike yesterday and it suddenly died. I toggled the run key and I heard the fuel pump running for almost a good 20 seconds. I threw her in choke, it fired up with no problem and drove her for a few miles wiith no issues. I got home and it died again with the same...

    Hi folks, I installed the Nissin brake/clutch cylinder setup for my '85. I removed the bolt holding the reservoirs to put my mirrors on. I got the left one on with no problem...lo and behold, I forgot that the right mirror is reverse thread. I like my black mirrors. Do the subsequent years also...

    Slave cylinder

    Folks, Does the flat side of the crankcase seal face the slave cylinder or the other way around? I did mine a while ago and I don't remember. I have a friend of mine with an '88 whose rebuilding it and for the life of me I can't remember. I sure as hell am not going to tear into mine to find...
