    Over this winter I'm gonna need to put new tires on my bike. Now I did find a new Dunlop 250/40R/18 for the rear from RockyMountain motorsports for $175.99 w/ free shipping but my front is a 120/70R/19 and they don't show that size on their website. Anyone know where to find that size Dunlop...

    No power to front right coil/wire?!?!

    Can anyone help me to diagnose the cause for no power going to my lead/COP for the front right cylinder? The coil died, and when I switched leads and coils in its place, there was still no spark/power going to that cylinder. Could this be a CDI issue? Wire harness issue? I'm at a loss...

    For those that may be interested, I will be posting info on a new set of Pit Bull stands for the 1st Gen Vmax. I've been working with Pit Bull using my 2003 Vmax as a template to create a set of stands for the bike. The Cobra Slash Cut exhaust has created a challenge, but Pit Bull has been more...

    High Speed Front End Wobble and Gas Leak

    As I've read this is very common to these bikes. With mine it can start as slow as 160km/h although usually starts around 180km/h. For my bike I find that if I push against the bars I can get around it happening. I must keep pressure on them whether accelerating or decelerating till I get below...

    Strapping the front question

    Is it ok to just have a strap on just one side. How far should the the forks be compressed. I can get them way down, but I don't know if I can hurt anything by going to far.

    Dunlop front tire cupping?

    Weird problem, I just picked up a 91 that needed fork seals. I had them replaced, but the bike still handles like crap, it wants to pull back and forth. In other words, if you turn left, it wants to keep going left, you really have to fight it to bring it back to straight. Seems going left is...

    Front brake question

    OK, new project 94 has a "sticky" front brake, although that's probably not a good term for what it's doing. Hard to describe, but the action of the lever is not smooth, you can pull it in slowly and nothing happens, then all of a sudden, about halfway through it's lever travel, it will grab...

    Shinko 230's front and rear what do you say?

    As the title states. I know guys run the 230 rear in a 170 form, and many use a different front tire. I have bad tires front and back. I found a package deal $151 on ebay with free shipping. Both Shinko tires 230 110 90 18 and 170 80 15. Does that sound decent price wise? Who has the...
