    Aftermarket sparkplug caps??

    I switched mine a few years back to NGK power sports performance red silicone ones. Never had an issue with them.

    from jims94vmx to jims2010concours

    That is one serious sport touring bike. If I was looking for TGIF style bike, I would tha Concour in my garage. Hope it works out for you. Mike

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    There is a drain bolt at the bottom of the fuel tank that will help get the rest of the old fuel/sludge out and help flush the tank out. Mike

    Good backrest option

    I have a quick detach one from ricepaddy that I really like. Once the bracket is installed, it's pretty much four bolts and it's on or off. Searching ebay may get one cheaper, this gives you an idea of what looks like...

    Some of you will understand

    They tried a new product up here a couple of years back called liquid calcium (liquid salt) - it was more like liquid rust. You can almost watch cars dissolve over the winter months. Exposed wiring would pretty much melt. They stopped using it last winter due to too many complaints...

    Solid Motor Mount Install

    I experienced and fixed the issue the same way as Rusty, except I still had some issue with vibs on long rides, due to having "white hands/carpo tunnel, so I also installed the Vibranatorsin the bars. It is as good as it's gonna get for me. Mike

    How much money have you spent on your VMax?

    2006 (bone stock) $8000 OTD Have about $5000.00 in mods so far. So for about the original factory list price in 06, I have a much improved Vmax in all categories, ie: handling, performance, etc.... Mike

    The saddlebag thread!

    I have two sets of saddlebags. A small set of willie & max as seen on the pictures and a big set of stock ones from a Vstar classic. They both are mounting the same way. They are bolted on the the bike using the upper rear shock mount and the stock signal light location. These are older...

    Opinions on Metzeler Roadtec Z6 tires

    I am on my second one on the front (110) and I am not impressed. Both have worn very strangely and cause some bad vibrations. The current one is about half worn and I ready to change it due this reason. I will be switching to another brand. Mike

    can you still get these?

    The manual vboost is easy to install, either with a grip shifter from a mountain bike or the Venture choke lever. I prefer the grip shifter, but that depends on what type of grips you have. Here's a link to the old thread on that mod...

    Motion Pro running really high

    Never liked the Motion Pro for that reason. I have one and it sits on the shelf collecting dust. Over 100 buck for a POS :bang head: I use the home made FrankenSync. It works great and costs about $10 bucks to make. Years ago, I had one that used mercury and it worked great, but...

    wet fork seal

    I had one seal starting weep oil and the seals are only a year old. Used the Seal Mate and no more leak! Definitely worth a try. Mike

    Only in Canada-eh?

    Damn newbie Americans. :rofl_200: Around here, we use blue hardboard foam and place it strategically on the machine so that it will float (skis, under the hood, running boards, under the tunnel, etc...). Than you can use the snow machine like a seadoo and the sound of a two stroke machine...

    Only in Canada-eh?

    I was at the Tim Horton's the night the moose came to visit. Cute little bugger. The mother was hit by a tractor trailer and gave birth before dying. He was well cared for by the guy that rescued him. It's one of those feel good stories. Mike

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    Rode with a Memphis Shade Hellcat windshield before, so this one to me is small, but does an ok job blocking the wind. Mike

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    Thanks Brian! Using the standard lights that came with the Cybermax, but with 100w bulbs for now. I did buy some nice HIDs, but the housings did not fit:bang head: Still looking for housings that will fit behind the light. Mike
