    Incredibal bike guy, never seen a max like it. Knowing there are 4 carbs on the max, how do you make due with three velocity stacks and what do you do when it rains ?

    Sean I like the mirrors that are in the first pic, mounted on the bike. They look well made. Can you get these and how much ? NO PLASTIC please.

    I D of front brake reservoir

    No Sean, this is for two calipers. (4 pads) Thanks for the info on the gold dots. The brakes have always been very smooth and stop well. I just thought I would change the pads while I was working on the front forks ( Installing your chrome lowers) I love to modify but one of the former owners...

    It was very easy.

    hope for a 15" rear radial

    I saw a couple of pic from the India showing yesterday. One was a fairly good shot of the rear tire. The size of the rear tire was 140/75/15. This is close to our oem size. Close enough that I would consider it. What do you guys think.

    new front tire on backwards?

    I would think that the directional tire they are taking off should be a pretty big clue.

    new front tire on backwards?

    Actually, this Avon is marked that way. One arrow points one way if mounted in the front and an arrow pointing the other way if mounted in the rear. But again, the tire he took off the rim was directional too, so he should have known to put the new tire on the same way.

    new front tire on backwards?

    Two answers to your questions. It was a Yamaha shop so they should have known the speedo drive went on the left side. Also a bigger clue is the old tire they took off was directional, so they should have known by that too.

    "If anything handling would be similar to bias plys." If the above was true, why would Harley be putting radial tires on there newest bike.?

    The Harley is a comparable size bike at 480 pounds. This is not a scooter tire and I'm sure they are not going to make the sidewall a sidewall that would be dangerous. We will have to wait and see. I am optimistic but apparently others aren't.

    are you saying our stock rims are weak ? Never heard that one before.
