    How to get rid of flat spot on a rear tire?

    My son got a 96 Kawi ZX7R last fall, and one of the things he complained about after riding it was the flat spot in the center of the rear tire. The guy he bought it from only rode it on the highway to work and back, with NO turns whatsoever. I told him he would just have to get use to it and...

    Flat spot at about 4500 rpm.

    R1 Blue Spot on rear

    Question for anyone running one of these calipers on the rear wheel. Do you have a lot of brake pedal travel? With the OEM caliper, I had very little pedal travel and the pedal was pretty firm. I switched over to the R1 caliper and it seems like the pedal is much softer and has a lot of...

    R1 Blue Spot Question

    Is there a sealing o-ring or anything on the inserts or "spots" on a blue spot or gold spot caliper? I'm looking to get one powder coated but I am not planning on removing the inserts since I don't have the tool. Just curious if there was a seal on the spots that would be harmed in the oven.

    Blue Spot Caliper Questions

    Hi all: First: My Max has blue spot calipers front and back, and I'm wondering if removal of the blue inserts will allow me access to the brake pistons (since getting them out from the inside workings of the caliper is a pain in the butt.) Second: I emailed qualitypartsonline.com a couple...

    :ummm: I would like to thank everyone for guiding me to this point, but I still need carb help. Have an 07 Max with 2K on the clock. Everything is stock except for the below listed mods. I noticed after I installed the exhaust and air filter that it seemed to be running lean around 4K or so...

    Are Ufo's easier to spot than a vmax?

    I have notcied something but I am not sure it's due to demographics or not, so can someone correct me if I am wrong? Where are all of the Vmax's at? Having grew up in Chicago, and now living in Arizona I've actuall seen Ufo's twice (Key word is "unidentified" and not alien) but never a Vmax on...

    Help! Break Pads not in the same spot?

    I just put on a new set of EBC HH pads today. And I noticed that the new pads come to the very edge of the rotor. The original factory pads only came to about a 1/16 of an inch to the edge of the rotor. Is this something I should be concerned with? I compared the original pads to the new EBC...
