    After doing Double D clutch upgrade will not go into neutral when running

    Just did the double D clutch upgrade. I left the half clutch in the back so I'd have some slipping not to break any parts. But it won't go into Nuetral when the bike is running. When the bike is off it goes into N without an issue. Had it apart to check 3 times now and I can't figure it out for...

    Series RR Upgrade

    Shortly after buying my Vmax, I found 2 of the stator windings were shorted and the RR was also cooked, awesome. So I replaced the stator with an Electrosport unit and wired it to a Shindegen SH775 SERIES type RR. The SH775 is a good bit larger than the OEM so I fabbed this bracket and mounted...

    Rear rotor upgrade

    I bought the adapter from Sean, to be able to use a large rotor on the rear of my 07. Does anyone have a pic of how this is supposed to be bolted on? I guess that I'm having a brain fart, because I'm just not able to picture how it bolts on. Thanks

    Wiring upgrade kits for early VMAX

    I am working on a 90 model with a charging issue, first thing I'm going to do is replace the wires. A couple years ago, I found a kit on eBay that basically provided better gauge wire for the entire charging system on a VMAX, but now I can't find the kit? Any ideas where I can purchase this...

    caliper upgrade

    I have a '96 Vmax. I already have the stainless hoses, new HH pads and the braking is still subpar. I am about to rebuild the front end and would like to upgrade while I'm at it.

    Rear Caliper Lock up - want to upgrade

    I think my rear caliper has about had it. It has locked up on me and that's the last straw. Instead of just replacing with OEM I was wondering if there are any specific upgrade models you guys installed on your Maxes. If anyone can point me in the right direction i'd appreciate it. I did a...
