    HID setup

    I just picked up the DDMTuning kit for my Max and finally got a few hours and some nice temps to do the install. I could not get everything to fit under the left scoop area. I shoved, pushed and tried to use every nook and cranny there was and it wouldn't work. Can anyone post pics on where they...

    100 mpg

    Americans wont buy a little rattle trap car with no sound deadening, no a/c, manual windows, etc. Not to mention all the air bags, ABS, traction control, EBD, roll over avoidance and all other safety crap adding tons of weight on new cars. It could be done though. I imagine it would be fairly...

    Prototype VMax?

    I would like to know if the guy is actually that stupid, or if he is trying to rip some un-suspecting person off. I would assume the former, or else he would of at least posted some unreal inflated HP number. Guy probably paid $14,000.00 for it six months ago. :rofl_200:

    8.87 156.82mph

    Word within the community is that Cornell was running a S*&T ton of nitrous when he got that time.

    Best Duck Walker ever

    I consciously never do this as its a total noob move. I stop on the ball of one foot at stops and lift it immediately after moving. I hate seeing those guys who have both feet down and drag both through intersections and around curves while piloting 800 lb Harleys.

    Found an 07 NOS today

    Yeah, you really don't have a wife! Congrats on both the find and the independence!

    $500 Dollar VMAX

    Those scoops and side covers alone are worth more than you paid! Good find! As others have noted, its probably a 1985 model judging by the side covers and pegs. Whats the build date and last numbers of the VIN?

    Raspo Concept

    From the looks of it most of those parts can be sourced through Exectrep. http://www.exactrep.com/acatalog/index.html

    V-Max to GSXR Conversion for Left Switch Housing

    So do you lose the 'reserve switch' function? At 3 gallons the fuel pump shuts off and the 'switch' starts it back up, right? I assume you lost this now, or did you do a work-around?

    Harley stock hit hard

    Geez guys, the stock only dropped 10% which is still almost $5.00 per share over its 52 week low and 3x times what it was trading at during the 2008 crisis, and these posts sound like H-D is in eminent danger of bankruptcy. Actually the price has made it an attractive buy. Plenty of wannabes...

    Integrated CBR LED Tail Light Mounting

    Its only silicone epoxy, it should come back off with little effort. I'd be more concerned about removing the factory tabs from the plastic fender.

    Who know vmax carbs best

    Maleko89 (Mark Milne) is the resident carb guru here. If you need to send your carbs to someone, he would be the man to do it...or Sean Morley.

    Bar End Mirrors

    Yeah, just make sure the end is open, some of them are sealed. Most rubber grips where the end is sealed can be cut out for mirrors or ends. I really like my D3s, and there are some knock offs out there for cheap.

    Too much Hot Pursuit

    After you hid for the first time and that 2nd cop came after you, you could have stopped as they really didn't have anything on you. The first cop probably didn't get a good like at you and since they lost sight of you, anything that they would have ticketed you for would have been easy to...

    Air Filters, Yes or No

    Yes, the occasional beer, and dirt, bugs, leaves, etc. Not to mention the sudden drizzle or rain storm. I would never run w/o filters, especially the carbs that have the stacks sticking out of the sides.

    Sylvania Silverstar Ultra

    So my second bulb just burned out. I've had two and they both lasted only about a year running them in the V-Max. They do put out nice bright light, but they are not worth the extra money due to poor longevity. Going back to the regular style bulb which I had installed for three years before...

    VMAX purchase price list

    2003, bought in July 2006 with 3600 miles on it for $6200. Decent condition with a Kerker, SPA tach, K&N drop in filter and Stage 1 jet kit. Otherwise, completely stock. This is what it looks like today.

    Oil cooler

    +1 on the fan switch, 88 Nissan Sentra (look it up online for actual part #). Even on 100 degree days and stopped in traffic my temp gauge never goes above half. The only down fall is that the fan runs almost all the time, even in fairly cool weather. This will cut down on the life of the fan...

    1997 Vmax for Sale or Parting out

    I can imagine a $13,000 bill if they are replacing the frame, forks, triples and everything else with new parts, plus labor. Genuine replacement parts add up quick. I am sure that you could probably get this one back on the road for not a lot of money as long as the frame is usable.
