    Battery weak when hot?

    I remember having seen this on the forum somewhere, but my searches are not pulling up anything useful. My bike acts like the battery is low, when it's hot. Simple as that. When it's cold, it starts like a champ (with a little choke) and runs like a top. When it's hot, it acts like the...

    Rebuild transmission without pulling the engine?

    So, as I posted a year or so ago, I've got the dreaded 2nd gear problem. I've come to terms with my lower-middle-class status, and the fact that I'll have to do the repair myself. As part of the process, I'd like to create a video completely detailing the entire process. First question I'm...

    Bad second gear...

    Howdy, ('94 US VMax... probably) If I give any more than about 10-20% throttle in second gear, it... "lurches." It feels like it's coming in and out of gear very quickly, or skipping teeth. Everything I can find says that a bike will never go back into gear once it's come out... but IDK...

    Installing V-Boost where there wasn't one...

    (I'd swear I've asked this question before, but I can't find where, so feel free to redirect me) I bought a '94 a couple of years ago and soon discovered that it did not have V-Boost installed at all. It runs great (mostly) so I haven't thought much about it until now. I'm planning to do some...

    Shop recommendation for SE Texas (College Station/Houston)?

    Howdy! I've done a lot of work on my bike, but I'm tired of doing the big stuff myself. I need the 2nd gear replaced (the last owner apparently didn't clutch his shift) and some general tune-up to tighten up some mods. I live in Bryan, but I'm willing to go to Austin or Houston for a really...

    Possible bad starter-clutch. Confirm?

    Got on Ugly to go to work this morning and he wouldn't start :-( I just got a whirring sound accompanied by a clatter, but the engine wouldn't turn (except for once or twice). So I came here to look for info and ran across a thread that said NEVER try to start on a low battery because it'll...

    No spark at any of the plugs...

    I've got a '94 VMax that I've owned for almost a year, and it recently quit starting. It's been modded, but IDK how much. After some investigation, none of the plugs will spark when it turns over. After the first day that it quit, I got 1-2 sparks for every 10-15 engine turns, and now nothing...
