short

What would you do if this happened to you? :confused2: Keep watching for part II. The first part is great in and of-itself. Kind of the beginning of taking to the highway. Looks to me like Pacific Coast Highway across from Golden Gate Park, by Queen Wilhelmina Tulip Garden and Windmill, Cliff...

Evening all, Not sure what the weather is like in your neck of the woods, but here its not the best... but that hardly surprising really. Fortunately it hasn't been too cold the past couple of days... averaging about 10c (50f). the sun threatens to shine on occasion and it hasn't rained... so...

For sharing with your Harley friends. Noise and HP are not always related, as in the case of Harley Davidson. Hope this gives you a good laugh. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBhz7X-S5Eo

I found this short story while reading news this morning and found it uplifting. It illustrates that the state of mind makes the biker, not in bike choice or environment. She captures it quite well in a few simple sentences. I cant get the link in my phone but its on KOTA News entitled...

Coming back from a long awaited ride today when the Vmax shudders to a halt , no power at all . No lights , indicator ,nothing when I go to turn the key on leaving me stranded . Fuses looked ok . What do I need to start to look at tomorrow ?

Recently my max had been blowing fuses on the radiator fan circuit. I installed my own cheap hardware toggle switch to bypass the thermostat so I could kick on the fan whenever I felt like it. That was my first suspect. After going through the circuit, everything seemed to have solid...

So I fired up the bike at lunch and it died after a minute sitting in the driveway. Saw a little puff of smoke from I don't know where. Needless to say it blew the 30 amp fuse just above the positive terminal on the battery. Pulled sest, tank lid and airbox and can't seem to find anything...

legs! I would like to lower my Max so that I can touch the ground with more then my tip toes. Anyone have ideas, thoughts, suggestions? Getting longer legs or a new bikes are not options :) Thanks! Beth

Hey, guys. So a couple times I have gone 100 miles without filling up. then the red fuel light would come on. So I would throw the switch to reserve (left since letters are worn out) and it would sputter and give all kinds of hell. But thanks to this forum I deduced it was a short somewhere in...

2" of snow yesterday....carrier was "unable to deliver due to the storm"! STORM? :ummm:.....2 inches of snow? I was a rural carrier in the Adirondacks for 5 yrs and never missed one fuckin' day of delivery! You carried sand, shovels and when the going got rough you crawled under your...

Worth thinking about, these two short sentences will tell you a lot about our government and our culture: 1. We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we ARE encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few...

Thanks Todd for taking care of my dads xmas present with such short notice. Todd invited me to his shop and let me wait and watch while he performed this task of laser cutting the grand kids names into a knife and it turned out great. Todd knows his way around the laser thats for sure. Watching...

http://www.yamahapart.com/page/thenewvmax Touches a little bit on the development of the Gen 2. A lot of thought and trial an error went into producing the bike. For instance: I've heard people say before "Why didn't they put upside down forks on the bike"? It's actually mentioned in this...

If anyone wants to meet up and ride at 10 am in the morning 4-5-13 im thinking about taking a ride and stopping for lunch. I will be riding from 10 am to 2 or 3 pm.

I bought a set of short COPs off a 05 GSXR 1000. I am ready to wire it up but I am wondering if I need some inline resistors. My bike is an 86. The COPs are reading 10ohms across the primary connections and 13.5Kohms across the secondary connections. Thanks!

I'm wondering who is up for a ride Sunday morning to Mt Washiong NH . Super short notice but its supposed to be a perfect day . Me & the wife are going so I figured I would see who else is interested. Each bike is $15.00 plus 8.00 for a passenger for the ticket to the top. I think 1 other member...

Hi Folks, Today I drove a little while in the rain. Not my usual thing to do.... But after a while I noticed that the engine during idle so once in a while run lower in rpm and sounded like he mist a cylinder. Only for one or two firerings. My first idea was maybe some moister somewhere...
