    Otec clear covers

    Hey guys about to buy the otec set of clear covers from exactrep but had a a few questions. Looking at the all alum, or the bi color to be honest. does the black/bi color match the gun metal paint used on the bike? And two the all aluminum, any one clear coat these being aluminum absorbs a bit...

    Time for the shinko

    So ordering my trex stand today and bought spools the ither day cause a tire change is coming up real soon. These spools are held in by a 6mm bolt. I am sure it is fine but that still blows my mind. Has anyone had these break off?

Sony XB31-33 portable speaker around 91/2 wide or XB 43 11 1/2 inches wide which put it reservoir to reservoir of course Ill have to 3d print brackets to put the sonys on the handlebars but...

    Best 1st gen year for reliability and ease of maintence

    Very few changes over their production. I had a 95 and an 01 and I believe that the 01 had all upgrades (Oiling issues, front forks) ever done to the vmax before 2nd gen of course. I rode both like I stole them almost daily, the 01 had 53,000 miles when i sold it and never smoked even if left...

    Right rear engine making sound

    Hard to say hearing it in the video. But yeah i check exhaust first. Then valve clearance, sounds kinda tappy‍♂️. It likely did it before the oil change before you last rode it and just didnt realize it maybe.

    So the stock ecu even when flashed i guess has not code to recognize anything outside of the stock CO scope. Gotcha. I hate piggy backing so not sure if i’ll go that route. Plus the money as you said.

    Gen 2 "Double D" clutch install

    GURU

    Being my 3rd vmax but first of the new gen I had to ask too. I sm a carb guy not ecu, always depended on others for that. Wasn't sure on a bike how lean it would run wo a flash or wide CO. I actually need to call Mr Nash about if i do add a wide band sensor if the ecu will accommodate and adjust...

    Best Sounding Exhaust

    If anyone wants to know the mods I did just pm me. Ill draw something up, although I forget the size sleeve i put over resonator (the pipe w holes) I covered all but like an inch, really not far from straight pipe to be honest, the cans just made it dound deeper. plus of course shortened them...

    GURU

    I put prob 1000 miles on my bike with 8”delkevics before Gurued. It will pop etc but not going to destroy anything. I wouldnt do the airbox mod until flash though, it will run leaner, prob too lean. The air box mod take45-/+ minutes so just do it when you wait for gurued

    THROTTLE PLATE and those tiny BYPASS HOLES (butterfly blues)

    I assume your syncing carbs? Got to do it with sync gauge. Anyways that said start off by just bottoming them out so they ‘just’ close then use idle knob until It cranks/idles/then you like where it idles, then use sync gauge. I wouldnt pay much attention to the holes really. It is mechanical...

    Gen 2 "Double D" clutch install

    Just did this exact same thing but didnt mess with the last friction and half clutch. Still getting used to the clutch, it starts bitting a lot sooner. While mine only had at the time of ECU flash 3200 miles I never experienced clutch slip. I did take it for a ride before installing second...

    Best Sounding Exhaust

    Appreciate that. Not a fan of free loading/revving engines seems you arent either. Under a load she was mean. Not a fan of 4-2-1 which is probably why I am half deaf but fo love that tire

    Cranks properly on second or third try only

    Hard to nail down until you start a process of elimination. Sure odd it cranked ****** then immediately was fine..good deal though.

    2002 Vmax NO TITLE Low Mileage and Custom Paint & Chrome SOLD

    Why not just get the title instead of parting it out. Not hard really to get the title even if in previous owners name. Try doing a 91jet ski sx650 that had been passed around and sat. Lol Looks nice

    sound on vmax

    The mtx/kuryaken is 400 bucks, no thanks when i know there are others that are just as loud that can be fitted as well like jbl charge. I can 3d print brackets. Only curious if someone had something like that.
