made

So i noticed a vmax sitting in front of the Yamaha dealer across the street. Like i do every time i see one over there i went over and talked to the owner of the shop. I said hey another vmax huh! he said go start it up the guy made his own exhaust.. Didnt believe when he said it sounds really...

Check out these pics for their detail and color, just amazing that they have survived! The resolution is probably because they were shot w/large format film. Sad that Kodak has fallen on hard times. Ironically, they invented digital photography. The company's chief worth now is in its patents...

finally figured out a decent looking spot to mount my switch to.just bent some .062 aluminum from work into an angle,notched it and rolled the ends around and tack welded in place,primed and painted and there it is.i bolted it in place with the lower two bar clamp bolts.

Well Today I collected my 98 one owner Silver Max...I pulled out and filled up opposite the dealer then with a smile headed towards home about 3pm with 70 miles ahead of me. After 12 miles as we hit traffic she warmed up then started idling rough and yes it cut out on the A12 in the dark at...

Went down to Martin 131 today with Leecifer and my neighbor Joe, tho I had made hundreds of passes in my car over the years this was my 1st run on a bike, drove around the water box with no burnout and did a quick dry hop sending the front wheel a couple of feet in the air!...........This track...

Im not sure what happened but something is not OK with my bike right now. I was out of town for a couple of day to see my friends in Baton Rouge ( thats where the NOS 07 is) anyway so I get home late last night and then after we got the truck unloaded today I went for a ride with my brother. We...

Recently I have found a piece of rest 1mm ss sheet laying around my garage and got an idea of what you can see below. I draw them from a scratch, nothing You may call a copy - like usual from me. Sheet I've had was brushed so it was pain to polish it - like you can see its not perfectly...

Well here is my latest project. Just fabbed up some highway bars/crash bars for the v-max. Didn't feel like paying 120+ for some bars so I figured I would buy me a new drill press for that and some metal and make my own. Put a little grip tape on them to keep my feet from sliding off while...

An old riding buddy of mine (Eli "Fungas" Fengas, An Israeli motorcycle journalist) Got back recently from Valencia Spain testing the new Aprilia Tuono V4 R. He said it's like they made it specifically for my riding style. The perfect Track machine/hooligan-bike combination with some...

I added a Marks 4-2 exhaust with the 14" cans and had my bike dyno'ed to see what adjustments need to be made. The dyno chart shows me very lean at idle then rich from about 2K all the way to red line. My A/F ratio from 2K up is around 12-1 I would have thought a better breathing exhaust would...

Finaly today i finished my breather hose mode. Thanks redbone for the pics of your made me understand what to do. I installed the filter outside the bike to see if i have any oil leaks. Made a very quick run (high rpms) all look good so far. I kind like it the wat it looks outside the bike. I...

my hand made "heavy metal look" mud guard. no more water on the back...YES :clapping::clapping::clapping::clapping:

My dad has a bad leg, so he cant ride my vmax without something to lay his leg on. well... without a steel tube frame like the gen 1, there was nothing to mount the universal foot pegs to. so out of necessity, we got with a local engineering company, and made our own. We went with some type...

INDIA?? dang what a mind blow?!?!?!! this defeats the entire purpose of even owning a harley.. i can honestly say there are times when the made in america thing really appealed to me about harleys... but wtf?? get them away from me...

Gday all. I like making stuff for my bikes. If it isn't any good, doesn't work, or is just plain shite :biglaugh:, then I do it again, keeps me amused. I wanted a proper 4into1, mainly because I reckoned it would sound cool, partially because my standard exhaust needed replacing, and I was...
