    Trouble with idle

    Hello all, again Having an issue with my Gen 1. Just pulled it from storage two months ago, ran fine until yesterday. While stopped at a light, shut off on me. Cranked it up, shut back off. Put the choke on, cranked up and stayed on around 3000 rpm. Soon as I turned the choke off, shut...

    Face-lift

    I am leaning pretty heavily towards the Gen 2. My only concern is that given the much larger size it wont handle very well. Any thoughts? Also, anyone have any experience with a Ducati Diavel?

    Face-lift

    So, happily, the wife just said she is fine with me keeping the Vmax and getting a sport bike as well. Looking at maybe getting an 09 1125CR if I cant get my hands on one. Side bar-Knowing the that Gen 2 handles far better than the Gen 1, how do they handle compared to say a Vrod or a...

    Face-lift

    Hm. You guys have given me a good bit to think about. Seems like I have three options: 1. Invest the money to make my current Vmax completely unique (down side is if I ever have to sell it I lose to 3000-4000 I put in upgrades on it) 2. Sell my current Vmax and buy a Gen 2 (cost around an...

    So, would I be better off selling the Gen 1 and just upgrading to a Gen 2 then? How well do Gen 2s handle?

    Face-lift

    Hello all, So, looking to finally have some down time to customize my bike the way I have wanted to. I was hoping you guys could provide some good feed back on the goals, as well as cost/feasibility. Long term goal is maximum performance, handling, and similar appearance to the bike below...

    Deployment

    Hello all, So, I am military and recently went on a six month deployment. I should be back in a few months, and just realized that while I did add sea foam to my bike and pull the battery, I did not drain the fuel from my carbs. Will this likely cause some issues when I return? Thanks...

    Carb Drain Screw

    Thanks for the input guys. Found it based on your directions, but didn't need to use it. Got the bike running, then added seafoam designed for gasoline with ethanol in it into the tank. Nick

    Carb Drain Screw

    So, I made the mistake of leaving my bike sitting, sad I know but Uncle Sam called, for two months without putting any fuel stabilizer into the gas. Came back two months later, and the bike will turn over but not start up. Made worse by the 30 degree weather outside, though it is...

    Voodoo 4-1 vs...

    I am currently trading emails with her. I spoke with voodoomoto and they said the bike is getting around 104 dB at 4500 RPM. I work in medicine and you guys are dead on that that is way high and hearing protection should be worn for it, for anything about 84 dB really. Any ideas as far as how...

    Voodoo 4-1 vs...

    My main concern is putting this exhaust on and later this year doing carb work, Stage 7 or equivalent, and finding that the exhaust I just bought new will be a limiting factor on my bike. Is the possible, or...

    Voodoo 4-1 vs...

    Anyone have any experience with the Voodoo 4-1 exhaust kit? If so, how does it compare with other exhausts like Hindle, Cobra, UFO, ...etc.

    Cost to benefit...

    Looks aside, is there a dramatic difference in performance between Kosman wheel widening and after market radial rims like what Sean offers?
  17. D

    Cost to benefit...

    In regards to the Kosman wheel widening you had done, how much did it cost you if you dont mind my asking? Also, my understanding is that the benefit of radial wheels was more based on weight. Am I completely off base?

    Cost to benefit...

    Does that $1400 buy, in your opinion, a noticeable difference in performance and handling over say the 500 it would take to install a race tech shocks and emulator?

    Cost to benefit...

    Any idea how much I would typically spend to fully install an aftermarket set of forks? I am going to try to compare the overall cost to include putting aftermarket brakes on the stock forks and see where I am total cost vs. performance.

    Cost to benefit...

    How much of a performance difference will I notice between the two options that you listed though?
