    1st gear burnouts?

    On the Gen 2, while sitting at a red light, raise the RPM slightly, ease out the clutch, and slowly build a smoke cloud around yourself. Most of the people at the intersection won't even notice until the cloud is building. When the light turns green, ease away like nothing ever happened.

    The End

    The difference is the Dem's have always been dishonest and break the laws wherever and whenever they can get away with it. The GOP has always been honest and follows the rules. Of course there are exceptions but generally the Dem's cheat and the GOP doesn't. And the media is about 95 % liberal...

    Polishing up the Scoops

    I really wish it would but the creep is already worth billions.....that's a pretty lucrative "failure" in "mybook".

    I call it Farcebook and I won't bore everyone with my reasons. That scammer, lying Mark Z can go fly a kite.

    Stock Gen 1 exhaust

    I also have access to an 85 in VG condtion, all stock trim with 5500 miles for $ 3500 asking, might get it for less. The low miles and all stock trim is attractive to me. I'm sure they can be found for less now and then on CL, but this seems pretty safe. Any opinions on that ?

    Stock Gen 1 exhaust

    Thank you Sean. To clarify, this is the "back half" only, no header pipes to the engine block. Just the cat or muffler or whatever it is under the bike and the silencers or slip ons or whatever the end cans are called. There is a tiny amount of road rash down under one of the slip ons, rather...

    Stock Gen 1 exhaust

    Hi all. I have access to some very clean OEM Gen 1 tail pipes and collector manifold or whatever it's called. I figured with the number of Max's I own throwing another set in the parts pile is not a bad idea. Are they worth $ 125 ?

    f.i. again

    Tossing this out in curiosity.......Maybe the answer is simple with several sensors and programmable "everything" but the V boost needs to be considered too, correct ? Would the fuel mixture or injection "shots" need to be programmed via dyno hours for many many different load (gear ratio) vs...

    Vrod

    I haven't worked on mine either but in the picture it appears to be a monoblock with the cylinders cast with the crankcase. And notice they put a removable frame section to get the engine out.

    I removed my listing for sale.

    desert-max, write me if that CBX ever needs to move on. My brother in law runs the Renfair so I'd run out to vist them and bring it home. If they ever open up again I'll get you a couple tickets.

    I removed my listing for sale.

    3, 4, 5 HP on 140 HP is 3-1/2 % at most and even if you find 10 HP even that's only 7 %. The butt dyno doesn't have that much resolution, not even counting the fact that the comparison's are usually on different days with different temp, humidity, wind, even road locations. (Do we time them or...

    I removed my listing for sale.

    It would be great if this jerk CH could be 86'd and blocked from the forum and every one of his posts purged. SEVERE anger issues with this guy, glad I'm not anywhere near his world.

    Bike Lift

    Yeah those stupid little $4 bottles are annoying. You're floor looks just like mine, is that full flake epoxy ? I love it except dropped parts are impossible to find.

    Bike Lift

    What's AZ for if you need the Mr Buddy heater on high ? We use those in the fishhouse !! I suppose you don't have a heated garage out there, LOL.

    Bike Lift

    I lift the rear with my right fingers, it takes a little more effort than twisting, but not much.

    Bike Lift

    I bought a Handi Lift about 20 or 25 years ago to lift my sleds and bought the front wheel vise at the same time. I used it mainly for sleds the first 10 years and bikes after that. The CL unit shown looks exactly like mine with removable side wings to reduce the footprint in your shop. You'll...

    Condor motorcycle dolly

    Support US workers out of work courtesy of the gift or trial test of Covid. What's $ 100 or even $ 200 in the grand scheme of things, expecially when you park an expensive bike on it and expect to use it for decades ? Put your bike on that HF stuff and you'll be scared a caster will fold up...

    Leather VMAX WALLETS

    1st gear Idling problem and Valve Cover gasket replace

    I did a quick scan of this entire post and maybe I missed the mileage somewhere, but if the valve covers are coming off for gaskets isn't this a good time to check / adjust the valve lash ? Maybe that was mentioned. Is the odo sitting at 22K ? (Noobe here too)
