Finally got to ride my bike about 25 miles in the heat (90+) and check out my new COP set up. Worked fine as I had help from a fine member on here. Was having some high temp idle issues which seem to be gone. Carbs probably need a cleaning and sync but I have a noticeable improvement. I also...

thanks zip code is 37342

Oh ok, thought that meant conversation to everybody. Thanks

Dumb question, but I have looked around on here and can't figure out how to PM someone. It was easy on the 'old' vmaxforum. What am I missing?

Hey sorry so long to get back. $75 sounds pretty good. Can you tell me about dents? Does it have the Yamaha emblems? How would you want to do the transaction? I used to live near Harker Heights...long time ago in barracks!

Do you still have the dummy tank cover/ breather cover? I would be interested.

That"s pretty cool. I have to say I kinda laughed when I saw the old bumper mount turn signals that look like fog lights. I had an old Civic long time ago, '74 model I think. Blew up the engine, didn't have time to work on as I was going in the Army. Anyway for some reason I kept the turn...

I've done a lot of research on these topics, going from one source to another. No body is going to change anybody else's beliefs; except when it comes to carb or engine work...I used to come to this site daily, then the format change and...well not so much anymore.

I'm not on facebook either, this is about as close as I get. Too bad guys now days rather be playing video games than wrenchin. I used to be somewhere on my Vmax and people would come up and talk about remembering when they wanted one or knew about them. That hasn't happened in a while. I've got...

Well with multiple attempts the strobe video will not go. I don't know why. But it's a strobe, so pretty much can imagine what it looks like! sorry

Well, I have a short video of the strobe light working, but can't get it to load, not sure what the deal is.

OK, so the strobe unit (I didn't take a picture) about the size of a zippo lighter I got from SuperbrightL.E.D. com. around $10. I got the switch from Amazon, even has a 'hazard' symbol on it. The L.E.D. strip came from a friend (work!) but Superbright has them in rolls. Both strips are...

And so today I did more; I used the '6th dummy indicator' I installed a lens and have that for my manual fan switch on indicator. I installed 2 strips of 6 l.e.d.'s (tiny but bright) on the tail light reflector above the 2 bulbs. This is on a switch feeding through a strobe unit (about the size...

Replaced front and rear tires. Coolant flush and replace. Manual fan switch. Drive shaft splines greased and rear end gear oil changed. I have a few more things for tomorrow.

Well, I see how it works now. I changed the coolant today and flushed. Still think just removing the drain works fine, especially with several flushes. O ring was good and there is no leaks. I guess the thing is too, the drain plastic hex head is hard to read and the on/off marking on the pipe...

I'm about to replace coolant, among several other things. I have replaced it before. I removed the plugs on the cylinders and flushed, but was and still am confused about the drain plug. Last time I just removed the plug and let the coolant out. Thought I would do it the right way this time. I...

It sure fit there well if from a different bike!

Looking around on Youtube and clicked on this. Nothing much to see until at 9:15 on the video it shows the fuel on/ res. switch and this one is a lights- on, off and po (parking only?) Very strange, I noticed the speedo is in mph, so not sure what the deal is. Any body got any idea on this...

Wow, that's a great story. I went to a dealer in Nashville once to get a mirror. As I waited for my time to get to the parts counter I walked around the showroom. The mirrors on the 250's, 450's and the 750's and (what I needed) the CB900 all had the same numbers on them. The 900 mirror price...

Thanks everyone for positive support. Seems a lot of effort has gone to Puerto Rico after Irma, the keys still suffer. If anyone were interested to read the news article you can google Les Weston Big Pine Key and a short article tells basically what happened. I appreciate the support, from all...
