taking

I have a lot to do today, but after all the recent tragedy in my life, I'm going riding on the old faithful V-Max. It's a nice day, and a lot of other bikers are out. I need to show them who's king. :biglaugh: Y'all know it's therapeutic!

Forward to around the 53 second mark in the video to see a Second Gen VMAX with a skilled rider taking some curves on a track. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIHk3-Mz8_I

So today's technology is awesome. 2012 ZX14 Pipe and reflash only by Brock. 219 rwhp and 128 ft lbs of torque.... It awesome to see the horsepower wars back! Lets see Yamaha offer 250 rwhp for the gen 2 from the factory. How cool would that be? Its amazing that adding a pipe and flash only...

Taking a ride to hell Michigan tomorrow if anyone wants to meet up let me know I'm meeting another guy with A busa at the Shell station in Adrian at 9 a.m. and taking a scenic route to hell Michigan I will be back in Adrian Michigan by 5 p.m.

Going to Nags Head for the 1st week of April. Thinking of taking the bike in case I need theropy. Any good roads in that area to ride?

hi All Can someone tell me if I remove the restrictors on the carb sliders will it make any difference to the performance and will I have to change anything else I don't want to mess around for now with buying vboost bits I have read somewhere that by removing the blocks alone will give the...

Looking at the DD mod and PCW's , Barnett etc..... I am just afraid since I am not easy on the bike, that I would lose a gear, blow a driveshaft etc. if I got with the DD setup. I love the sound of second gear power wheelies etc..... I am all about the power, but I am also all about being...

I might go and was woundering if any other vmaxer's would be going.

After a lot of thought, I have decided to take up drinking. Instead of trying to explain my decision, I firmly believe that "a picture is worth a thousand words." http://www.sun-sentinel.com/elsentinel/sfl-sofia-vergara-through-the-years-20111109,0,2774388.photogallery Who wants to join...

Can one, by him or her self, take the tire off the alloy by simple use of their hands and tools found in the home? Or does it require a proper specialist machine??

Finally proposed to my girl friend of two years. It was at the Charity Event for her son. She had no idea it was coming Wedding is in Aug. Doing it when my kids are out for the summer. We are keeping it low key, just a few friends and family. Times are tough. Will post up some pics from...

I've been wanting to work on the bike and get it running a little better ever since I got it. Unfortunately I never really get time to work on it. What time I do get is in the garage after the kids are in bed and I cant run it. So I'm thinking about breaking down and taking it into a shop. I...

I have to take off my front wheel, I got the front of the bike up on two jacks (lifting from the engine guards) Tire touches the ground when handle bars are straight, but not when I cut the wheel. Wondering if there is any technique to taking off the front tire, I know with hydraulic disc...

Ok ok I know its not an excellent idea. Im going to Newfoundland from Toronto. I will have to pass about 1200km of well maintained gravel/dirt roads. I recently installed Metzeler ME880 rear and Lasertec front. I'm looking for the best tire that I can have on those dirt roads. I have...

The other day the tripmeter knob broke off in my hand but everything still works . I want to take my speedo apart tp see if i can fix it . Is it easy to get in to and has anyone had theirs apart ? :ummm:

Having worked at a dealership and changed many rear tires on shaft driven bikes it was clear to me that proper lubrication of the splines is a maintainence item that is often over looked by owners. Everytime that rear wheel comes off the splines should be greased. This goes for the...

Does anyone have a link to the March 1987 Cycle world article "Takin' it to the nines"?
