I don't think the Nixies will fit on my dashboard....................leaning a little more to .75" to 1" LEDs Basically a 7 segment driver and little logic to take care of the missing 1st gear switch contact. I actually pay around $3.50 each for the Nano, the terminal breakout board costs as...

The Arduino is easier for me to program and is overkill but for 5 bucks I can afford the overkill..............I did checkout the connector and have tested the servo motor and measured the variable resistance at the connector pins...............and it is correct that the air flow thru a...

Thank you for the information..........exactly what I was looking for...........it would appear that I'm lazy in that when I checked my manual.............page 7-61 had a paper clip on it to mark the page.............go figure, but you saved me many minutes may be even hours trying to find this...

This may be a non issue but I'm wandering what the control action is with Vboost when it is initiated at 6000 RPM.................does the controller open the throttle plate to fully open immediately or are they opened percentage wise depending on the motor RPM..................I determined that...

I will shorten it up a little to get to straight sections of tubing and getting the frames on the same plane................I plan on using solid pins inside the ATV tubes welded to metal plates to bolts to the VMax frame..............I plan on changing the angle of the ATV steering shaft to...

This is my latest project.............wanting to reverse trike one of my Vmaxs......................figured I could use the frame from an ATV and graft it to the motorcycle frame.................seems to fit up pretty well, just to need to finalize the attachment details.................it will...

Wasn't all that hard to install after I figured out where the tabs went and what the hooks on the frame were for......................I feel better with it installed................really appreciate all the comments, thanks again

Thanks for the suggestion on soda blasting and where to get it.............didn't realize Home Depot carried it..............I have small portable sand blaster and have considered trying soda blasting...............I was involved with soda blasting in the manufacturing of medical needles and it...

Couldn't find a picture of this in the Service Manual.....................been 5 years and I don't remember taking this out.................where does this go...............thanks

This is what I ended up with.............. Next step is to trim the 10x24 studs down and add chrome acorn nuts which are on their way............the small sleeves were made from brake line..................so far so good................

Thank you.............basically followed the same procedure but did not bother to jig up the part in order to hold it firmly in place and aligned with the drill bits...................hand drilled a hole thru the bolt and then went to the drill press and finished drilling an oversized hole in...

No, it showed up a year or two after I purchased the bike..................just started one day out of nowhere...........I thought at first it might be tappets but was unsure............hence I took it to the expert for precision diagnosis.............almost have it back together, hard on my...

This is what a broken wrist pin looks like that was still functioning and giving an odd ticking noise in the engine which Sean recognized as something not normal...............

Thank you Fire-medic for the information............that is what I was looking for...............I got the key piece of information that I needed to proceed with getting the differential reattached to the bike..............I thought my GL1500 Trike was bad but this "takes the...

I've looked and can't find the technique necessary to align the swing arm drive shaft with the engine U-joint, looking for information on how to make this alignment. I have the service manual and couldn't find it in there either. Thanks in advance for the help.

Anyone seen a good trike conversion for the V-Max? Or is this taboo? Will my membership be terminated!

Thank you guys, I believe that cleaning the carbs is the next best item to cross off the list. Could weak spark possibly cause this problem? I put in new IR plugs but when I cranked the engine I could barely see the spark. I expected a big blue spark. Thanks again for the help.

I've performed the idle circuit cleaning procedure and have synched the carbs. Throttle response is good. Engine revs up and when the throttle is closed, the engine take 5-6 seconds to come back down to an idle from 5000 RPM. Adjusting the idle screw, I can't get an idle between 1000 and...

Current situation is as follows: I tore down again for another cleaning session using the "peashooter" procedure and repeating the "shotgun" procedure. I discovered two things: 1. All the diaphrams have a small hole along areas where the diaphram flexes(wrinkled areas) - I made a repair over...
