Hey everyone, I don't post here often but thought this was worth posting for those speed freaks and hooligans like me. I live in Vero Beach, FL and recently met with a friend who was dying to see my black 2018 VMax ( Voodoo pipes w/ no tune yet). I rode with him and his friend so it was my...

I've been running the series type voltage regulator for 6 or 700 miles now. If you recall, it is a direct plug in replacement for a FH 012 or FH020 MOSFET unit. Rock steady 14.4 volts at all engine speeds. Unit is living under the seat, where the rear coils used to be. Doesn't get hot, you...

Well its been 6 months since the accident. Quite a bit of hospital visiting, surgeries, rehab and rehab..... Things are getting better. I ve been worried about my thumb and memory loss ( short term ). My shoulder surgery went well, surgery was longer then he anticipated. I have 6 holes in my...

An update on the manhunt I meandered into during my ride yesterday....some guy stabbed his estranged wife in or near the Valatie, NY Medical Arts building....she died as a result, the guy was run off the road by police later in the day. End result, three little kids with a dead Mom and a...

Well I have been very busy with trying to keep business going and make some decisions I ve been wanting to make, but now all of a sudden forced myself into making them. I wont bore people with details on some of them. But I ve made some rather large financial decisions and I am very glad I...

Well finally got my homemade synchronizer to work. Instead of the plastic gatorade bottles i used two glass pickle jars and it worked perfect. I'm extremely surprised at how much better my bike runs now. Throttle response is much crisper. I only took it for a quick spin down the road but i can...

So I have all these extra turbo parts that came with my Busa..... got me thinking of putting a turbo on my Max. I would just be concerned at how much power a stock motor could take. Could you see 175-200 hp without breaking the trans, bending rods or snapping parts? I think nitrous is a...

Just thought I would put a update on my tires. I installed them a little over a week ago. July 14th for the rear and July 16th for the front. I have just over 800 miles on the rear now and 200 on the front. The rear felt good on take off and around corners. With the rear being new and the...

The saga continues: For a long time now I have been admiring V-Maxes and have been checking them out on CL and other venues. A week and a half ago a listing came up on CL for an 03 with just over 10K for $2000. The ad stated the bike was in a minor accident and needed work but he had bought all...

The Eldeweiss will be releasing any un booked rooms on April 15 so call and get yours so you will be with the main group in regards to lodgings. You know you want to go dammit. Make sure your tires are fresh. Ask Hatter about why:) See the thread about 2012 south central rally schedule for...

Well, with the help of a GREAT GUY (Maleko89):worthy: for getting me the jets I needed I now have a MUCH BETTER running bike! I have always had a pretty paltry running '94 (Cali version) and I was tired of the transitional stumble from idle to part throttle and the overall inability to adjust...

The rooms at the Eldeweiss are going to be released at the end of aprill so better call and reserve yours. See the 2011 eureka springs rally thread in the organised rides section. You wait you will have to look elsewhere for a room. Michael

Well I was fortunate enough to have some much needed help from Grimmie, thanks again Grimmie. But we hit some snags Grimmie performed the hole shot method on my bike but when we got to the what I believe is the number three carb the a/f screw at the base of the carb is striped and appears to be...

While changing the gear segment unit and the clutch-pressure plate ass. out, is there anything that may have gotten overlooked that may have something to do with the bike not starting while in gear with the clutch lever pulled in AND the sidestand UP ? Should I be looking more at the switch on...

Finally got to run a test with the intiminaters installed with stock springs and 9 lbs of air and I'm impressed with the feel of the road. Firm but flowing. Then the stack of the shock with moderate to hard braking is impressive too. I'd have to say that what they claim is true, glad I bought them.
