    supercharger belt walking off

    Might have to email me again and I can give you an email for a guy that's had many of these set ups. Might be able to help with any common issues that you need to know.

    Cataracts

    I had lasic done and was also nervous. Thankfully I only needed one eye corrected and it's held up for close to 20 years now. As I get older I am nearing the point of needing glasses but i can still safely pass the drivers vision test so not quite yet. I do notice a loss in flexibity of the lens...

    Valve Clearance Gen 2

    I think they were web cams and their drop in cams (10 years ago). The gain was a whopping 2hp. Not exactly worth the spend.

    FRONT FORKS DILEMMA!

    We've done plenty of inverted kits over the years for customers with a variety of forks though the 02/03 R1 seems to be the best overall for length (most are very short). I should have some kits back on hand soon. But, you're going to spend $2k and up getting it all setup. Better brakes (though...

    FRONT FORKS DILEMMA!

    Another simpler option is to use progressive springs. The stock are also progressive springs but a much lighter rate. I have found the racetech in my opinion to be a bit harsher for just day to day riding then the progressives.

    Depends on your budget and desired. If you bother getting them changed then you may as well change the profile anyway. BUT, I am not sure i wouldn't just shim appropriately and drive on without spending any of that money in the first place. I am not sold that they need to have anything done.

    Valve Clearance Gen 2

    Your gain (or loss) in redoing the cams, getting upgraded profile cams, or leaving what you have are probably not even recordable on the dyno. I can tell you that the gain we were shown from a real world install of the bigger cams was a whopping 2hp. That didn't even cover the variability from...

    Front Calipers Rebuild

    I broke down and bought an actual caliper piston tool removal kit. Came with multiple size "sockets" to tighten inside of a piston giving the ability to twist and pull to get them out. Works very well and quicker then the air pressure did for me.

    Exhaust header clamp confusion please help

    They do wear and new copper crush washers usually fix it. Haven't tried to double them up though?

    Would you buy this? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...

    Well, what can I say. Not my style but props to the work overall.

    New to V-Max & a question.

    Right on the money Kyle. All the same. My best performing gen 1 (stock) was a 2005 with california cannister (that had been crashed and even went end over end lol).

    Gen 2 clutch options?

    One other thing to check is the inner basket. They can work the rivets loose and allow the clutch to slip. I also am not a fan of the synthetic oil in these bikes. Some have ok experience but that's not been mine.
