    2nd Gen fun in the mountains

    Just got back from 5 days in the Tennessee/North Carolina mountains with the guys from the Honda V4 forum, this was the 14th year running, my 3rd in a row. I can't stress how nice this area of the country is for riding, every year we hit a new spot, the roads are just unreal. Had some VERY...

    2nd gen air intake mesh and plastic slots?

    Hey there, Does anyone know if its possible to get a replacement mesh and the plastic slots for the air intakes? The guy who owned the motorcycle before me epoxied LED's onto the plastic slots and removed the mesh filters on the outside. This seems to restrict the air a little? And a little...

    2nd gear fix

    Here's a couple of pics of a 2nd gear fix I did today. Problem of second gears is actually 5TH gear driven dogs that mates to 2nd gear driven internal pockets. I welded the dogs with cobalt rods (tig) and even built up the dog height to give it some more engagement . Next step was to...

    1st And 2nd Gear Problems

    Took the the bike out for a ride on the intersate for about 13 miles, when i got to the off ramp it would not go into first gear only down to netural and then it would grind a little going into 2nd, but all other gears are fine. I was told it might be a bent shift fork? Any ideas? Thanks.

    2nd gear fix advice

    I,m trying to get all my facts straight before tearing into my engine this winter. I've done a lot research on this topic and have Damon's video on engine rebuilding. I'm wondering if this 2nd gear issue was resolved in later year 1st gen maxes. If so, would buying later year parts be any...

    Have front tire widened on my '03 or sell it and my Speed Triple for a 2nd gen?

    I've got an '03 with an 18x5.5" rear with a Bridgestone 180/55 sport-touring radial, and an almost-matching Bridgestone 110/80 front radial. While many will say that a 110/80 works fine on the stock 18x2.15 front wheel, the fact is that a 110/80 radial is designed for at least a 3" wheel and...

    1st and 2nd popping back in neutral

    My transmission pops back in neutral in 1st and second gear most of the time at low speed just pulling off at red light or stop. I'm thinking it's time to do the tranny change ( hmm that don't sound right ;-) ) and go undercut gears. Cold weather is coming and I'm thinking about doing the...

    My contribution to the 2nd Amendment.....

    I did a limited edition of 10 AR-15 Lowers laser engraved. Sold them in a heart beat! Now for the second run of them coming soon! This is for all the gun grabbers to realize that when they grab these 10 rifles, maybe if they know how to read they might realize they are violating our...

    Will the 2nd Gen throttlebodies fit?

    Ok, I looked on the Neilsen's parts fiche, and it appears that he throttle bodies on the 2nd Gen Max are set up similarly to the carbs on the 1st gen bikes. Makes me wonder if it would be possible to adapt them to the 1st Gen bike?

    2nd Gear Poll

    I'm new here and looking to get into a 1st gen. Had a second gen for a couple of years, but had to sell a while ago and looking to get back into a max I can afford. I looked in search for poll results of the dreaded 2nd gear failure, but was unable to locate one. Can someone please start a poll...

    Sorry, another 2nd gear thread.

    In the next couple of months I am going to be undertaking the dreaded 2nd gear fix. I have read loads about undercutting, reworked gears, etc. But I am UK based, and have decided I will go for new/nearly new stock setup. I am fine with most mechanical things (my bikes never go into a garage...
