solid

I just cloned my 500gb standard spinning disk hard drive to a 240gb Solid State Drive. The cloning took about 90 minutes, and another 10 minutes to swap the drives. Windows 7 previously took about 5 minutes to completely boot from off. The machine now takes about 35 seconds. Programs open...

How many of you guys are running the solid motor mounts? I'm looking into getting a set, will most likely be made of delrin, and I know there has to be a little more vibration due to this. And if so, how did the guys running them lower the vibrations from the mounts...( shot in handle bars...

July 3, had a flat on the rear of the Roadstar. I was about 15 miles from home and 25 from my friends shop. We used AAA towing to get the bike to Tims shop. A day and a new Michelin tube later, I'm back up. I went out to the garage yesterday afternoon, the damn rear tire is flat again.. I...

I was wondering if these are worth the money .They state that it is the cheapest addon to help handleing for the max.I was also wondering what type of steal the engine bolts are made of?.

I mentioned this in what was more of a story about my ride Sunday. Now I ask here to see if this is normal. Oil level near top marks on the sight glass. Roll on in 4th from about 5,000 RPM. Oil Light comes on and stays on at 8,000-8,500 RPM. I looked at the light, then the RPM and...

While looking at solid motor mounts, I have found a lot of people have installed both solid motor mounts and frame braces. Given the solid mounts should turn your engine into a brace can any one explain the benefit of both modifications? Specifically has any one installed the solid mounts...

We are doing a group buy setup for solid motor mounts on the Venturerider.org site. One of our members is getting them for $50 for the set of six. Including shipping to US addresses. Machined from 6061 Aluminum. Same mounts are used on the 1st gen Vmaxs. If anyone is interested let me know...

I've found aluminum or delrin mounts. Any thoughts? Seems like the aluminum would transfer vibrations better but I'm not sure if there are any other factors I'm missing. If anyone has any advice I'd appreciate it!

Anyone using these? I placed my order 2 weeks ago (instant payment via PayPal), and I haven't received them yet, haven't gotten anything regarding shipping, and they haven't responded to my email asking for an update.

1) Place bike on center stand. Remove tank cover, remove scoops Using large phillips screwdriver, unloosen the 3 screws on the black plastic plate on left side that holds the relays and module and let it hang down. On the right side, remove screws that hold the radiator cap and hose joint...

W000t :th_image003:I got my new motor mounts installed (late last night) the rear's were a PAIN IN THE ASS:pullhair:. Anyways got all the mounts in, now just to put everything back on the bike, but won't get to try it out for another 4 months or so. Will I notice a big difference with the...

I have been looking into switching to solid billet motor mounts to improve handling because I cant afford engine bars(even though I want them SO bad!) So the question is how hard is it to switch the engine mounts? I dont wanna pull my motor, I would preffer to pull the old ones one and slide...

I've got my engine out because I'm replacing the transmission and am doing solid motor mounts at the same time....there's no better time to do it than when the engine is OUT of the bike! And, by the way, it was a bitch to get out. The solid mounts will only go halfway into the holes in the...

My first suspension mod is going to be replacing the mounts with solid ones... I think. I know a lot here have done it, what I'm wondering is the best place to get them and either aluminum or derlin? Also, what should I expect in handling and vibration? Ron

How critical are some of the dimensions on these solid motor mounts? I know a few of them are not, but I'm thinking mainly of the 1.100" diameter that fits in the bore in the engine. Does this need to be a friction fit or can it be a few thousandths loose? I'm not a real expert on a machinist...

I got the Delrin motor mounts a long time ago, put in the front four and liked it. Now I am installing a set of Supertrapp slip-ons, so while the cans were off I thought I'd get the rear two motor mounts replaced with the last two Delrins. Can't do it. I don't know what it's hanging up on, the...

All, Abe and I need your help on a few things. Should we put solid motor mounts on this bike? I am doing this on my drag bike, but I didn't know how much vibration this causes and if the frame strengthing out-weighs the negatives. I personally like to "feel" the bike, just as long as parts...

could someone post a picture of this set up? I'll buy you a coke.:biglaugh:

So the Dealer called me today to tell me my 09 Max was released, and that it would be in Thursday. I politely reminded him that I had called to kill my order when I bought my 01 a couple of months back. I had only put down $500 because I wasn't using Yamaha's finance plan, and I had counted...

After mulling it since my purchase I have decided to install the Venture solid mounts on my 2003 Max. I have read the Outlaw write up and was wondering if anyone here could provide any install tips for this. I know that it is harder than it sounds and looks, so I am looking for some experienced...
