Never had a fake book account, I have no need to update my status every 5 minutes, I'm 57 years old so I was born before all of this social media ********, social media is destroying this world, I remember when I had a pager and I had to stop at a pay phone and make a call, those were the days

I like the gauge cluster setup but I don't want to change my stock 85

What is the gauge for to the left of the speedo

Yeah I've done that

I've been sitting around thinking why is it they didn't put a fuel gauge on the VMAX does anyone have the answer, now I'm not sure about all of the years but I know my 85 and the first gens don't have one, why Yamaha why.

Because they are tired of rebuilding and dealing with those temperamental Damm futher mucking POS effing carburetors

if you look on the jet block where the o-ring sits is beveled inward a little bit so the o-ring is made to fit inside that

You're damn right I'll be still riding my 85 in my 90s

So do you think that's true that these motors on the first gen don't reach max power until they hit maybe 50,000 miles, I'm just saying because mine has 4800 on it for an 85, yes that's right 4800

I got one more question guys is there a way to get the float seat out seems like it's pressed in or do I really even need to change them also under the jet block is an o-ring does that o-ring go under the gasket or does it go between the gasket and jet block

Okay okay guys I'll check out fleabay and look for the k&l thanks for your help

No I won't buy the crap off of fleabay for $20 I might have been born yesterday but I've been up all night

And where do I get the k&l kit do I just do a Google search for it

Good morning guys my 85 was only 5,000 miles is all original and stock, it's set for a couple of months and it won't idle at all , it pops out the exhaust and as soon as I come to a stop it dies seems like the choke is on all the time but it's not, I'm going to take the carbs and go through them...

Colt defender .45, compact with grip laser

I'm not a CV carburetor expert so educate me guys I put on some shorter stage 7 diaphragm springs and it seems to be running a lot more smoother better and more power why is that, was I too rich

Well I tightened a few things cleaned a few things and everything seems to be good now no more issues, I think I had two different problems probably from sitting a starter solenoid that was stuck and maybe I just had a bunch of crap in the carburetor for sitting a few months it is all original...

Damn carburetors, Id give my left nut if this bike had fuel injection

Okay I'm going to check and go over everything , I didn't mention in my first post that I haven't ridden the bike since about June it's been a few months I don't think that's really going to matter that much but it might

I agree with you on the starter turn signal relay but that doesn't explain why it bogs down and dies almost like something is electrically shorting out
