    Smaller radiator

    How about a Harley style tall and narrow cooler? I've been thinking about this too.

    I agree. However many people don't seem to know how to do it themselves.

    If someone wants to have the carbs rebuilt and balanced, you send the entire bike to the mechanic, not just carbs. Anything short of that is just, well, short of what it could be. Nobody is able to balance your carbs on the table and send them back. Nobody.

    This is the realistic situation with a Vmax carb rebuild. Additionally to this, balancing and fine tuning the carbs needs to be done on the bike itself.

    I'm nowhere near FL, but in Texas. I can do this but it is not cost effective for you.

    1st Gen & 2nd Gen Christmas lights or paint setup on VMAX

    Well, you can always decorate your dingdong and show it to her. That'll have more positive outcomes than making your bike look like Rudolph the Reindeer.

    1st Gen & 2nd Gen Christmas lights or paint setup on VMAX

    Some people think a motorcycle is part of their clothing. It is not. The style of the motorcycle outweigh the rider every time. You can combine styles to match but just like eyelashes on a car over headlights, it is really only going to create pathetic views and heads turning away laughing. You...

    Better to buy a bigger tree and decorate the **** out of it. If you need decoration while you ride, buy Elton John Star glasses and enjoy the attention.

    A motorcycle is not a Christmas tree. Some might like it, not me.

    Air filter cleaning

    Well, if Stage 7 recommends having individual filters then it is a good idea to ask why? I'm a firm believer of air boxes, so I'd not be using individual filters in open air. That is just my opinion, nothing else. I do have a reason for saying this, a technical reason, but I'm not getting into that.

    Air filter cleaning

    I've got the OEM style K&N in the modified OEM box. I don't ride in dusty conditions. I've had the filter on for few years, inspect it annually and never even needed to clean and re-oil it.

    Gas quality and undesirable effects of ethanol fuel blends on a 1st gen VMAX

    I imported my 1997 from Europe half a year ago. I haven't seen much difference in gasolines at all. I used Shell products in Europe and I use them here in Texas. I ride my bike often and if the weather doesn't permit that, I run the engine in my garage once a week. I didn't need to change...

    V Boost Controller issue

    Excellent way of individual thinking. Keep doing that. Nevermind the rest.

    How about using non-ethanol fuel? Or that is not available where you live?

    Why does it need to be fuel injected?
