Yes hey Sean what are the details on the Hyabusa brake swap for a pre-93 VMX12? I see a lot of sets of brakes on the ebay, from many different years, some with the lines, master cyl and lever, some with just the calipers. Also, which rotors work, and how do they mount to the wheels (as compared...

2400 RPM at 70 MPH

I put a crampbuster on the right handgrip. And then put 400 miles on this weekend. Test rode the Victory Hammer at a dealer event. Found it to be quite tame.

I saw this and thought it was a pretty cool treatment:

Thank you, as you can tell I am leaning towards trying to be safe. But if I'm safe, I also want to try to make as much power as the bike will make.

I don't know how much the numbers would change by going leaner, the tuner with the dyno said that he'd do a complete tune on the bike for about $300 and would expect another few horsepower, in the neighborhood of 118-119. However, I was also advised that maybe I shouldn't consider going too...

The gentleman running the dyno said that I was running a bit rich. That I wouldn't notice it as much on cold days like the day I put it on the dyno -- about 48F and rainy -- but that in 90F hot summer days it would "fall on its face" and offered to do some tuning to make it leaner. Also figured...

Here's a link to the youtube video: http://youtu.be/Ma67rynruxA 116.8 Horsepower, 74.9 torque Not too shabby, and man it was fun.

Midnight. It's dark blue. But mostly, midnight is when the monsters come out.

Hello all, I'm excited and relieved to say that I'm still alive after picking up an '89 VMax as my first bike last spring (Feb of '12) and putting on about 3,000 miles last summer. (I had never ridden a bike before.) It was modified with a Dynojet stage 7 kit, 4 K&N's, a 4-into-1 Vance &Hines...

Hey I'll dredge up this old thread to say I'm up in Cloquet, MN and am up for a ride anytime -- probably only a handful of good riding days left until the snow flies here but give me a shout if you're out 'n about.

Thank you for the info gentlemen, I'll post pics once I get this project underway. ...several fab projects lined up for once the weather gets too ugly to ride in. Including, believe it or not, wooden grips.

I have a friend who will turn me some aluminum motor mounts (bushings) out of aluminum -- I just need the dimensions. Does anyone have precise measurements of the stock mount dimensions or a tip on finding them? Thanks in advance. P.S. If I make some and they work out well, I might have him...

Hello, I've just bought my first bike and it's my dream since high school -- an '89 in blue. I haven't even brought it home yet. Can't wait to get it in my garage, clean it up, and prepare for summer. I look forward to learning about my new machine from the enthusiasts here. Glad I found the forum.
