You can defo use the dremel to make screwdriver tracks - as you say the MC covers are cheap to replace. Once you got them off clean the brake side and it might just be fine. If not, a replacement brake M/C shouldn't be hard to find and inexpensive, as rebuilding the sight glass isn't all that...

Maybe you're developing a turbo?

Thanks guys. I have one more place to check out here, if no luck I'll take you up on your offer.

I'm still looking to see if I can get it here, but it's not looking good so far :(

Talking of bigger tanks, I have one of those german-made plastic ones. It came with about 19L capacity (OEM is 15), but it said that once fitted and filled up, it would expand a bit to a capacity of 20.5L Well, it did expand. So much so I can't take my side covers off anymore! And, as I put...

Thanks guys, I've looked into these, and as usual the international shipping more than doubles the price (!!) Would anyone in the states buy this for me: http://www.boats.net/parts/detail/part/Y-2KW-W0099-00-00.html Then stick it in an international prepaid small box ($9.95 at the PO if I...

..from where the clutch lever pushes the rod into the M/C :damn angry: It's dripping on the bike and on my jeans and jacket as I ride along :bang head::bang head: Is there a rebuild kit available cheaply and easily to fix this? Or, does anyone have a M/C in good working order they'd be happy...

I was up to 5 recently and it felt like too many! Then again, 4 were for sale.. Down to 3 now, gotta be honest I love having more than one bike! :)

When I had a cooler fan switch in FL my fan ended up running too often (for example when cruising on the freeway at 80+ mph) and somehow that took 10 miles off my tank range. I ended up add a manual 'off' switch and all was well. Here in Perth, I was riding - quite slow as I was pulling a...

I still have one '87 ZL1000 for sale, and an '83 Honda V65 for sale, as well as my own 2000 Vmax. Gotta say that having ridden the V65 a bit more, I do like it a lot. It hasn't got the looks or the punch of the max, but it has a lot of grunt, and some very cool things such as the 6th...

I think your 90 miles (is that before reserve?) is actually pretty good for a stage 7 on stock exhaust. I've had two '86 models with stock carbs / Jardine slip-ons and the best I ever saw was 105 miles before fuel light, so you have a little room from improvement. I wish my max EVER saw 120...

Nothing here either.

I'd say the US mate.. Sean Morley should be able to help you. Kyle Clegg may have one second hand. Either will happily ship to NZ!

Aha! Another Vmax in Perth yay! I'm in Freo mate, do give us a shot always up for the odd ride. It's always fun riding a couple of Vmaxs side by side :) I'm riding a V65 Magna right now, as my Max needs a second gear and I just need to find the time to do it!

There are a few of us in the Perth area, if you ever fancy a loooong ride West...

I concur. 1UT is USA. Also I've had two US 1986 models in black, so the colour's good too.

You guys crack me up... I thought the prize was a free monkey!

Re: Award Request for Sharky! Go Sharky! Heaps of good stuff :)

I've hardly been around lately, interesting to read this. Sad to miss Kyle here, although we keep in touch all the same. 100% agree with Buster tho, if you're gonna resell manufactured parts.. Oh well, still plenty of Max everything here, and Kyle's f'd up back means he has to ride a Wing now...
