    Parts For Sale Gen 1 parts for sale

    The VIN is JYA1FK007FA003121. The brake lever is fine and I found another one in a box of stuff in the shop. If there can be a serial # based difference, the one on the bike is probably original and you can verify if it will work for you. The one in the shop would be a mystery but if someone...

    Parts For Sale Gen 1 parts for sale

    I have a complete Gen 1 I'll be parting out soon when I move inside for the winter if you can wait that long. I suppose I could yank the brake lever off now though. I'll get the VIN and a picture for you if you want.

    Front tire life.

    All these tire, fuel range, battery charging, and CARB issues are very easy to solve. Just park the darn things. For the cost of a little gas one can buy a sizable supply of drool rags and a spray bottle of drool cleaner for your guests. All these problems go away and you can save hundreds or...

    Front tire life.

    The burnout solution seems simple and fun. If the front is getting a little ahead on wear, just plan a Fri night burnout and even them up. This way you can always have the tires evenly worn and the replacement cost should go down if you buy and have 2 changed at once.

    2023 v max 1200

    I saw similar videos and marketing materials for a new Chevy Avalanche launch - fake news. Their specs don't even make sense and the video is rather amateurish. If anyone had real information, the video would be much more impressive than this. I'd love to see a new Vmax, but until I see...

    Gen 2 Signal Swap Options

    Not saying yours are garish, I'm just a little concerned how they'd look if they were on all the time. Might be a little out of place ?

    Gen 2 Signal Swap Options

    Sounds cool, can you post pix of these in action during bright sun and twilight periods? Someone's probably done the same just as an accent in a color. Have you seen or done anything as an accent light ? Not sure I want to go through all that work and end up with something garish, but a...

    How many HP do you really need?

    MORE'S LAW: If more is better, too much is just right ! There are a few applications where it doesn't apply but HP almost always.

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    That looks gorgeous ! Can I bother you with some questions ? Did you paint the engine in place ? The engine appears to be painted with the same paint or at least the same color. What kind of paint did you use on the engine and exhaust flanges ? Can you briefly describe the process you used on...

    Touch up paint

    I just checked - they only show a Deep Scarlet for the 85, maybe you could call them and see if they'll mix some up for you.

    How long does it take to remove/install carbs?

    Please don't take offense at an attempt at humor, but I'd suggest slowing down. If you can do it that fast you're getting really good only cuz you're not good and just doing rework. That said, if you're running a race bike and constantly jetting to the conditions, one get pretty fast at it. If...

    Is it just me

    Who's could blame them for not hanging around with Pukin on one side and Biten on the other.

    Is it just me

    OK, go easy on me for this as this is what I THINK, about what mankind THINKS, about what mankind KNOWS. Before you send any arrows MY way, reread that sentence. Math and it's derivatives are not real, they are man's construct to help him understand, describe and quantify the real world. Sure...

    Parts Wanted Carburetor body #4

    Hi. I may have one but it will be probably a month before the bike gets dug out of the snow. I bought an older Max last summer and the seller told me I could "have that one too for free" so we drug it onto the trailer. It's a complete bike with lots of good parts but it's FUBAR (well beyond...
