lock

I have found that when steering 'left' on full lock, my engine will cut out. This is obviously always at a very slow speed and in 1st gear, when either turning into my driveway or making a 'U-turn'. I haven't noticed a problem on right lock. I am assuming it would indicate that it maybe...

I like the Throttlemeister bar ends but the obvious disadvantage is not being able to move it from one bike to another, and honestly cost. The Breakaway, also pretty sweet looking but there is no chance of me paying $150+ for a throttle locking device. Not happening. I landed on a Go Cruise 2...

Hi all! First of all to announce myself as this is my first post on the forum :) I am byle from Spain but currently living on The Netherlands and I just bought a VMAX from 1997 to enjoy touring (whenever it doesn't rain :) ) So the aim of posting here is that I was trying to lock the...

Just ordered one for my ZX14. Since I ride cross country so much on the bike and long distances, I figured this would be nice and cheap. I ve seen cheap plastic junk throttle locks that look cheesy. This is a nice adjustable unit. The others I ve seen are set by the allen head on the head... I...

What does this part do? Is this a dealer item? I noticed the one that isn't broken gets stuck when assembeled.. Please help, need to ride! John

Factory position has helmet resting on pipes. Not good when hot. So, I moved it to my back rack.... And I ordered a second one for the other side so I can lock 2 helmets easily for my sweetie... Old position mounted to the frame plate New position Does anyone...

I think my rear caliper has about had it. It has locked up on me and that's the last straw. Instead of just replacing with OEM I was wondering if there are any specific upgrade models you guys installed on your Maxes. If anyone can point me in the right direction i'd appreciate it. I did a...

Greetings All. I have an '88 VMax that I unfortunately must park on the streets of NYC. I've just hit 11k miles today, and she's in beautiful stock condition. A few days ago, someone backed into my bike, knocking it down while the steering lock was engaged. Now, it won't lock in position, as...

hey all! 1. does anyone have any evidence (anecdotal or otherwise) about the effectiveness of the steering lock in reducing theft? 2. although i haven't found a wheel- or disk-lock that i like (and know would fit snugly) thought i'd ask about #1 before i buy AND if you have any suggestions...

Riding around, started hearing some very pronounced rattlingfrom the left case when I let off the throttle in any gear. After a few miles of that, I'd let off and it it was jerking the wheel hard enough to just about lock up the tire and vibrated like crazy. Shortly thereafter, let off in second...

does anyone have one of the alarmed disc locks?xena seems to be pretty common on the web.if so which model fits well on our bikes.going to be taking a trip this summer and would like a little bit of security on it while out in the parking lot at night.thanks

I know this is in the wrong section but I didnt wanna bump anyones brand new posts.... anyhow.....lately my max is vapor locking..... did it last yr so I changed the gas cap out and it still does it. any ideas?

Finally got hold of one of these, they are a little difficult to find for the RX-7 Corsair. Delivered today, installed easily, and rode with it to work tonight. Temp was about 44F, humidity average. Ok let me just get this out of the way. BEST. THING. EVAR. The shield with insert...

Hey what size rortors do we have on our max's. I am about to get a disk lock and need the size. Also about to order a dowco weather all and it says to get a medium but I am thinking a large size. Anyone have experience? Thanks,

When you guys activate your steering lock and turn the wheel all the way to the right does your max feel stable? Mine feels like it could fall over in the wind?

O.k.... I'm looking for advice on a clutch for my dragbike.... I have found a few and wanted to know what the drag racers think is the best bang for the buck... http://www.mtceng.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=39&Itemid=44 ?Yamaha V-MAX 2 Stage Lock Up Clutch MTC Yamaha V-Max...

I recently purchased a vmax with a bent frame. I have since replaced the frame with a frame I picked up from a salvage yard. I am wondering how I can replace the steering lock with the one from my old frame? The salvage frame did not come with a key and I would like to get the steering lock to...
