Hello, I've had my '06 VMax for a few years now and it's had those dreaded Cobra slip-ons the entire time I have owned it. I just aquired the original muffler assembly and center stand, which I intend to install.
Questions:
1. How crucial is the muffler mount that goes in the center of the muffler? It it difficult but not impossible to locate one.
2. Where on earth does the center stand spring attach to the bike? Is there a bracket that may have been removed in the past when the Cobras were installed?
3. My carbs have a "stage 1" or similar jet kit installed, am I safe to run it for a while and check the plugs to see how my A/F mixture is? Or do I risk running my engine lean and burning up my cylinders? I don't care if I run rich while I figure it out but lean scares me.
