What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

[VMax-Mike]

Panels are not on the bike FootNote and all i had to do after riding season was wipe the bike down. It is a clean bike and im doing my best to keep it that way. Clean and mean is what im after.

I cut out another instrument plate. I had a couple new ideas when I was cutting out the old one.

I got the electrical test kit in the mail from sean. I hope I can get this stuff figured out over the next week even though I'm super busy. I hope it's just spark plug wires or something.

Drug home this 85 today did not have time to attack it yet. That will be tomorrow.

Got a new battery and put it in the vmax yesterday that was stuck on a parking lot on post for about a week. After installing the battery it started up just fine but idled real low. Probably 900-1k normally and 2k with choke on compared to the 1700ish rpm and 4k rpm it was doing before this happened.

Anyhow I rode it home and it seemed good to me. *shrug*

Rode the piss out of "The Purple Nurple" today. Scared my ol' lady while she was on back, so she reached around and twisted my nipples (hence the new name of the bike). Day complete.

Looks really clean from here. Is there anything wrong with it (besides those front brakes)?

Hell of a way to get a name, but it works :clapping:

Supposably only needs a new battery and carbs cleaned and fresh gas. I will find out today.

Disassembled the front radiator covers and shield and painted the grills red. I was a little disappointed with the color match I chose....it doesn't seem to match the 2005 color quite right. 2005 color seems more of a burgundy red than the fire engine red that I painted the grills. Sent off my backrest and luggage rack last week to Patmax for powdercoating, so now that the rear fender is exposed I can finish off the LED tail light mod by adding a light to illuminate the license plate. It never ends.........

I got my radiator covers from Kyle today and stuck them on. :biglaugh:

Also got some more $$ in my grubby little hands, so I poked my phone with my stubby little fingers and gave Mark a call and ordered an exhaust.
