    Thunder By The Bay - Any good?

    Haha, yea, even in no-hills Florida she still doesn't trust me. Anyway, went for a few hours today. While not bad I was expecting more. A swap area would have been nice. The plus side, not many people at noon, parking was free and a 3500 dually found a spot easily. Didn't mind paying the $15...

    Thunder By The Bay - Any good?

    Hi, I'm thinking about going here this weekend - https://thunderbythebay.org/ Anyone gone before? How was it? Only an hour away and since it's at a fairground maybe there's a place to park my truck. Wife doesn't ride since I bounced her off the back climbing a hill on my dirt bike.

    I admire your goals, and build.

    So how do you lift a Vmax by your self if you drop it...!@?

    This is not a stupid question. I tore my biceps tendon lifting the rear end of a bike and needed surgery. But not learning from my lesson when the rear end kicked out in the grass on my VMax I just grabbed it by the bars a popped it back up. It came up easily but I should have taken more than...

    Looking for rough ram air side covers for experiment.

    Where are you located? I have one that is cracked, but I tack welded it and painted it. Looks pretty nice on my wall but if someone were to show up I might be able to take it off the nail. I'm really too lazy to send it. If I were you I'd invest a coupled bucks in a can of resin and...

    No pressure building on clutch. Rebuild the reservoir master cylinder?

    Mine has a super slow leak that only appears if it sits for awhile. Adding fluid and pumping the lever works for me to bring back the prime, for now. I keep a small can on the bike just in case. I know I should rebuild it, and will when I have to refill more than once a year. I think it is...

    New Inhabitant to the Flanigan Garage

    Nice, I've always wanted one too. But that would be bike #8 and the wife would really have a fit. Maybe after I finish "her" new kitchen. Could you share the great price and make me more jealous?

    My old Vmax is up for sale

    Depends on his negotiating skills. Arguments: - Everything's gone up in price. With inflation I'm taking a loss at selling it for what I paid - These are getting hard to find - All the maintenance has been done and it's ready to go - I fixed bla, bla, bla,,, so you're getting that work...

    Burning oil

    Living in deer, hills and woods land if was a great time hitting max speed on a rental car for quite some time between death valley and Vegas. Flat nothing and miles of visibility. But as far as living there I like the color green too much. Shade is also nice at times.

    Kerker or Supertrapp slip-ons? Help me decide

    Opinion: Sell them both, keep the stock ones and take the money to the nearest casino and just keep pushing the chips back in. I like quiet and not annoying people or drawing attention. Unfortunately the Vmax is none of that, but I still like it.

    My 5th Gen 1....

    :oops: 🤣 Yes I thought I was slow and deliberate! Were you driving it at all during that time? I suspect you enjoyed it enough that you were in no hurry to sell. 302/C6? It was just a 351 base model. I don't think in 1969 you could get the HO 302. I had a 68 with a 302. I was surprised how...

    My 5th Gen 1....

    Could be. I bought a 1969 cougar to paint and sell. Bought it 30 years ago and sold it last year. I'm pretty slow.

    My 5th Gen 1....

    Very nice! It's 100% none of my business and you can ignore me, no problem, but why have you gone threw 5? I have the same Can-am 250 I bought new in 1975. I seem to keep things I like. I'll be married 40 years come October

    To paint or not to paint?

    Totally a personal call. I was going to paint my original paint 1982 Honda Nighthawk but never got around to it. Now I'm glad I didn't. It shines up pretty good with some light buffing. It's only original once.

    Carbon wrap or hydro dip

    OK, yea, if sanding got into the carbon clearing probably won't turn out well.
