    dead cylinder

    Just got my 86 max back together. Took it down the road now it seems to be running on 3 cyl. If you unplug the coils the r/r coil seems to be the problem, but I switched coils and the problem stays w/ that cyl. Does anybody have any ideas? Thanks Jay

    Rear Cylinder Right side

    I am thinking i have a carb issue with the rear right cylinder. It is running super rich and not firing completely, spark looks good but when the bike is running unburnt fuel is coming out from around the header at the cylinder. Is there something i should look at first.

    Different master cylinder

    Quick little engine cylinder detail mod..

    Too hot to ride this afternoon so I thought I share a couple of little things I did to the max. The first post is for the cylinder plates. I wanted a bit more detail on the engine but all of the aftermarket plates were a little gaudy for me so I modified my own. First, I checked to make sure...

    Purpose of clutch master cylinder switch?

    I discovered that the switch on my clutch master cylinder has a problem with it. What is the purpose of this switch? Brake switch operates lights on the brake m/c but what does this switch on the clutch m/c do?

    Master Cylinder Leak

    Today was my first day out on the new to me 06 max with 2K miles. Fun to say the least. Noticed that fluid was leaking from both the clutch and front brake masters. The leak was in the exact same spot on both. If you look in the photo you can see a very small square recess in parting line...

    Oil leak from base of clutch slave cylinder

    I just finished replacing the tranny on an 85 vmax, which resolved the second gear problem, but I have an oil leak coming from the base of the clutch slave unit. I pulled it, found I had installed it without the larger oil seal over the clutch piston. Put it back together and the leak is even...

    Rear cylinder valves.

    Is it possible to get at these without dropping the motor out of the bike? And if not, how complicated is that? I have the full on shop service manual which shows most of the steps but I'm wondering if I have to worry about all the electrics and shit, or if I can just pop the valve cover off...
