back

Wow, it's been a day or two since I've gotten on this forum!!! The wife and I bought a house...moved in 2 weeks ago (see pictures) The last 2 months have been SOOOO hectic. I haven't had any time to breathe! But...we're finally out of apartment living. And I've got a garage for myself too...

Coming back around to show Mr Max some love. I have had my 85 Vmax for 19 years now so I felt I wanted something new to ride, so I bought a 04 Ninja ZX10R last fall. I rode it last fall and a couple hundred mile this spring already. Well, I found out at 44 years old the hunched over riding...

I took my OEM flyscreen apart 5 months ago. I got new rubber washers nuts and screws. Now i can't remember where the rubber washer goes.:ummm: If somone could look at their's I would be very grateful.

This looks like it could be pretty cool. And 1080p on youtube? Cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgwZWcraqd4

I feel so relieved that I've been reconnected. I recently bought my first house and man it is a fixer upper. Two months later I've painted over 1000 sq ft, laid hardwood and carpet, added kitchen cabinets and busted out a wall for a bar :) I hadn't had time to even think about getting the...

I decided to change brakes on my bike, but the problem is, brake pistons wont allow any room for the new ebc HH pads... So how would i push them back? Im talking about front brake

I was watching this on ebay and I just seen that a new Yamaha backrest sold for $710.00 Yamaha must have stopped producing these also. This is crazy! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160364960492&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

I've just posted some photos of a back rest I fabricated for the max in my photo album,pretty easy to make,if you have a good friend who's a welder that is.I'd post the pic's here but I don't know how?

Hey folks: You folks are awesome, so lemme ask you something that's bugging me: I'm cleaning up a set of R1 front calipers, and I'm trying to put a seal back in (one that goes into the region that the piston goes into) but I CAN'T FREAKIN' DO IT!!!!! Once I get a part of the seal into the...

Thought I would share a story with you guys and give thanks to a few guru's out there. I went down on my 07 about 2 months ago. Luckily all I hurt was my left foot and it's close to being 100% again. The bike, well it ended up being totaled by State Farm for more than I paid for it 2 years...

Hi all, I got my carbs and seat and chrome parts back from Sean today ( Thank you very much Sean !!!! ) So this afternoon and tonight I plan to install my carbs and sync them. I did make a rookie mistake when I took them apart and didn't note which cable was in which linkage hole :bang...

Hey folks: I installed a baffle within the UFO exhaust can I have (I have one of the wicked loud 4-1 systems) and the bike runs pokey as hell. What is happening to the whole running system when too much exhaust back pressure is applied? Thanks very much. Elimax

Running a lot better. What we did. Just changed the oil, oil filter, air filter and plugs. He put some transmission oil a little or something on the plugs so it smoked for a min or too but ran a shitttt ton better after. Also he sprayed some GM engine top stuff??? Into the air take, I asked what...

In the past I read number of articles on how to install radial tires on VMAX, which were involved changing the rims,... an expensive painful process. That had to be done since there were no radial tires made for the bike on stock sizes (110/90V 18" and 150/90V 15") I was just trying to order a...

Well if anyone remembers last fall how i had problems with my bike stalling out when it got hot at idle. Well i had no choice but to take it to the dealer to have them check it over cause i had no clue. Well 5 months later :bang head: they did some tests and figured out the pickup coil was bad...

damn i missed the abuse, but no worries, i'm back on my bi-polar meds, so i will try and behave:clapping:

Well I havent finished my complete setup for the 09 season with the use of the crossover delay box and linear accuator. I was only using the crossover delay to see if it was accurate. cables didnt come in till today for the throttle control. The weather was nice here Friday in the 70's by the...

Changed rear pads when I did my tire a few weeks ago, put on EBC HH's, bled both sides of the caliper. Took it out for a ride today and had a great pedal feel, than it went out, went right to the tip of it's travel. I pulled over and the inner bleeder was spitting a bit, thougt maybe it was...

so after being unhappy how my 'ironhorse' headlight looks i think i'm going to go back to stock. after looking at the spec for the headlight i found a list of parts I need to put my casing back together. I need parts: 6 (x2) 7 (x2) 9 (x2) 14 15(x2) 16 17 18 I will probably also get a new...
