    Oddly enough you can also find them on Amazon and I've had a couple that were delivered same day...

    Lithium battery

    I had a Shorai that sat in my B-King basically untouched for 3 years with temperature swings out there from 90-ish down to near 0 a few times during the winter. Figured I'd be buying another battery due to my neglect but threw it on the Shorai charger and I'll be damned if that thing not only...

    Gen 2 Signal Swap Options

    I had to stalk Mike Kemp also but managed to get a set of his HALOs...waiting for the 10" of snow we just got to melt over the next few days to drag some bikes out to work on. I know he was having issues sourcing some of the parts in his kits for a while and was also in the midst of a move and...

    Cleaning a Gen 2

    You can buy soap and finishes specifically for matte paint...I use Dr. Beasley's on all the matte stuff on my V4 R and the Streetfighter V4 SP, which has all matte black paint. Soap and their ceramic finish work great and don't add any sheen to it.

    Windscreen Questions

    I'm still waiting on some Magical Racing parts for a Katana, H2 Carbon and Hayabusa that were ordered back in November...current estimate for delivery is in June. Long wait but the parts are worth waiting for and I have yet to not receive something I have ordered despite the huge wait times.

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    I had a very similar set of mirrors on my Katana, the Rizoma Tomoks that are about the same size and shape, and had the same issue. I had to move to be able to see anything behind...kind of felt like it defeated the purpose and went with a set of bar end mirrors, which is also what I have on...

    1st Gen V-Max 20th Anniversary Edition

    Sometimes that's easier...but pretty sure hookers are less expensive in the long run! Just ask Charlie Sheen... 🤣

    Doesn't sound as if that feeling's reciprocated...at least not for very long. ;)

    Gen 2 Clutch Fluid Flush

    There is no stated interval for clutch fluid flush/replacement in the Owner's or Service Manuals...figure if they have you rebuilding the cylinders every two years they'd also expect fluid replacement. Seemed reasonable to 'extrapolate' that every two years would then be the 'recommended' interval.

    Gen 2 Clutch Fluid Flush

    Completely agree in that it's overkill for regular maintenance and likely not needed in all but the most neglected of bikes...my assumption was that if you're 'rebuilding' hydraulic cylinders every two years then you're also flushing/replacing the fluids, so it seemed a reasonable shot at the...

    Gen 2 Clutch Fluid Flush

    From the Owner's Manual...seems like it would happen every two years with the called for rebuild of all of the various hydraulic cylinders. • Hydraulic brake and clutch systems • After disassembling the brake or clutch master cylinders, caliper cylinders or clutch release cylinder, always...

    Problem is you offered your 'opinion' as if it was a statement of fact...but I appreciate the backpedal.

    Read your referenced thread, all 12 posts that took me a solid 3 minutes, and I didn't see anywhere that substantiated your claim of design issues associated with any particular years. The post you link to simply asks about parts interchangeability between years and, not that I know anything...

    Moore Mafia Flash!

    I don't know why it wouldn't be as it's just a wideband O2 sensor and log box and shouldn't be dependent upon the bike unless there's a required harness connection that they just haven't built based upon demand. Another point for the Guru/Autotune combination if that's the case. I've got...

    Moore Mafia Flash!

    Not completely true...I self-tune my bikes all the time using one of their available features called 'Autotune', which requires the Zeitronix Wideband O2 add-on. Probably a bit of a misnomer though as, while it does log observed A/F and allow you to use those values to tune to a desired A/F...

    Moore Mafia Flash!

    I'd say pick your proverbial poison...I've never spoken to Tim directly but I haven't had a need to either. It seems like, from what everyone has posted on here, he's a good guy and definitely knows his stuff about the VMAX. I'd agree that his flash, which used to be the only option outside of...

    Moore Mafia Flash!

    Agreed but I think he was just detailing what you could get with a VMAX flash and I'm the customer who brought it in already had the pipe on it negating the chance to do a true 'before-and-after'.
