after 4 years of working on my bike , today it came alive. i was so stupid that i had the mic of my cell covered and you CAN'T imagine the sound of my exhaust system. so deep rumble that doesnt fade with the sound of lot compression. which is one my issues. i used a 21 ah battery for handicap...

Happy to bring the max back tonight, been buried in the back of my mechanics shop for over 6 months. After several mods and fixing a few issues + new rubber I can now complete the cosmetic mods and hit the road. Can't wait to introduce the neighborhood to the sound of a modded max! Anyway, here...

My 700 Fazer has started for the first time in 15 years woo hoo !!!!!!!! Got the carbs back from Sean and then found out the fuel pump was shot. I got a reasonable facsimile of one until I get one I'm sure will fit and put it on. Put fuel in the tank to see if the small leak was successfully...

Even with the Vmax gone mod monkey must have been hiding in garage..lol. Full exhaust system later, Power Comander and Ign module. Stainless brake lines some paint work...stinking little monkey..

I'm running again after going through my carbs and fuel pump. I'll get to ride tomorrow to see if getting the bowls cleaned out and two emulsion tubes unclogged will fix my fueling issue. It would be really nice to just be able to ride this thing and not worry about getting terrible gas mileage...

Hey guys, For reasons I cannot discuss I have undertaken a policy of not posting up to public forums for a while. Let's just say that I was internet "stalked" by the ex and she had a court order put in place preventing me from bringing Toxic into the USA with me due to a posting on a forum...

Sorry for the crappy phone vid, but i'm just happy my beast is finally running. Can't wait to receive it!!! :punk: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8McQMb40QPI

Well after 16 years of being stuffed and buried in the corner of the garage, my 85 Vmax alive again. The tank was rusted so I used "poor-15" on it. That's 2 gallons of vinegar, 1 gallon of water, soak for days turning every 12 hours. Then I rinsed and repeated the process and finally I put in...

Well i got my new fuel tank in,..carbs back on from the 4th time of cleaning them out,..new fuel filter,...plugs..and "the beast" is finally alive and running!!:eusa_dance:.I got the carbs synched,and it seems to be running really well.Now if i can just get my shifter parts in,im ready to take...

Today, while going to my girlfriends work to meet her for lunch, I thought i`d take the toll road to get there quicker and , I had my daughter with me and everytime she is with me , she somehow manages to distract me in one way or another. so as things would have it, I was explaining something...

I got her going! Took me like 3 weeks but i did! Thanks to all who helped out! Alot of you may have read my thread about the solenoid which turned into an all around help thread, thanks guys. http://www.vmaxforum.net/showthread.php?t=10229 She revs great but won't idle. I think a simple check...

My CR500! It's been awhile since it actually ran. About 5 years actually. A "friend" bent a shift fork shaft stomping it into 1st gear trying to bumpstart it and that was the beginning of the end. Fast forward to last weekend and I had a CR500 frame in my basement with wheels on it and thats...

Here ya go: You gotta see my uguly mug again, but the sound is worth it!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3X62PdtiIww Jeff
