Any of the forum have experience changing the drive shaft yoke oil seal on the middle gear drive? Mine seams to have reached the end of it's life. The service manuals seem to indicate that the seal can be removed once the driveshaft, swingarm universal joint and and driveshaft yoke are removed...

Got a leaking fork seal that needs replaced. Going to do both sides, naturally. Then, after checking all the posts I could find on the forum, I also decided to install progressive springs while I'm there. I ordered stock dust seals, oil seals and copper gaskets for the bottom hex bolts. And...

Hello, I had problems with the v-boost operation for some time. The movement did not happen at all or it happened incompletely. Then one day it stopped working. I first checked the servomotor by applying there voltage through b/r and b/y wires, but no action either way. As I did not want to...

I've got the rear valve cover off of the bike. Did some cleaning and polishing and the old gaskets were leaking. Have new OEM gaskets. What is the best way to get the rear valve cover and gasket back on the bike without going insane? And the front?

Don't know if this is the right forum for this question. I have seen a larger aftermarket screen for the small (about 10" tall) factory instrument cover windscreen. It is taller and wider. Anyone know who makes it or where it is available?

I'm 99% sure it is seeping through the wire harness gromet as the new stator didn't have the wrap on the wires that the original did... Anyone else ever have this problem and, if so, what did you do to remedy it? DS

Hello all - first post this is for a -05' Anniversary Edition Previous owner dropped the bike in the garage and scratched the "star" crankcase cover by having the brake pedal hit it. The left side cover has the removal screws, but nothing on the right... After looking at a parts diagram it...

What is the best choice of replacement rotor for the rear of a V-max. I would appreciate as much input from members about brand choices, type of rotor e.g. solid or floating, suppliers, pricing etc. Need to replace a warped rear rotor and may as well evolve the bike.

I've read somewhere that someone has used an MV Agusta tail end on their Max to liven up the rear end. I'm interested in doing the same. Can anybody shed some light on which tail you would use and how tough the fabrication for install is? I'm not scared to try, just like to know what i'd be...

I KNOW I saw this somewhere, but can't find it now... Replaces the rear reflector below the seat with an LED array... Links? Anyone? :biglaugh:

recently acquired an '86 Vmax, decided to rejet it (stage 1 dynomax) and all that jazz before i start riding it, not looking for any performance gains, im sure it has plenty of power, just to make sure everything is happy and running right. anyway, got to adjusting the mixture screws, and the...

I had posted on the VMOA Tech board, how I was looking to replace the can on my Kerker 4-2-1 and Mario Aguier stated that he had a new, very reasonable priced carbon fiber can that he could have made and sent to me. Anyone have any first hand experience (heard, saw or owned) on the quality and...
