    Raider more $ than vmax!

    To me, the rear looks identical to the Gen II's.

    First longer ride today, not to impressed with ride

    If you have stock wheels, you'll have to go bias. They don't make a radial for our rear wheel. I have the Metzlers and with about 3,000 miles on them, they still look almost new.

    Tax the rich, they don't pay enough??

    Garrett, I say let's give it a shot. The current tax system doesn't work for ****. The uber wealthy have the $ to give to the pols to write beneficial tax codes that no one understands. The low or no wage earners don't pay **** but soak up the majority of "essential" benefits. The middle and...

    Morley jet kit questions

    Hey all, I am really close to pulling the trigger on one of Sean's kits. Instead of trying to filter through all the previous threads, thought I would start a new one specific to my bike. I currently have a stage 1 with a Hindle 4-1 installed by po. Does anyone know if the stage 1 has...

    This never got much exposure....it should have!

    My wife showed me a story about this on Sunday. Had never heard about it until then. Thanks for the vid. Nice to see what we're capable of when it hits the fan.

    Adjusting new throttle cables

    Sean, yeah I have that adjusting nut turned out as far as possible as well. It's not really affecting anything, it just bothers me when I'm stopped to have all that slack in the throttle.

    Adjusting new throttle cables

    Do you mean the adjusting nut behind the scoop?

    Adjusting new throttle cables

    I have the same issue with my aftermarket ss cables. I have the upper and lower adjusting nuts turned out as far as possible without falling out and I still have too much free play in the throttle. One thing I have noticed is that the "balls" on the ends of the ss cables are the same size...

    Stupid exhaust question

    Hey all, was wondering if our bikes make better numbers with a dual or single exhuast setup. Or does it really matter? Thanks.

    New to site, the VMax and a few ???'s

    Mr. NST, I live in politcally incorrect Mizzourah, no such thing as too loud.:punk:

    Two of the first things you should address are the front springs and seat. At a minimum, you should put Progressive springs up front. Some folks go further and put emulators in as well. Really improves handling characteristics of the bike. The stock seat flat out sucks. I have one of...

    Poll, give the gun back??

    I say no because they obviously could have gotten a $6600 or cheaper truck somewhere else on Saturday. They wanted yours and thought the cash plus gun was a fair deal so there you go.

    Welcome to the forum. I'm sure some of the veterans here will jump in with some answers later on, but here's my take on your questions. 1. Sounds normal. The fan will kick on before the gage gets too high. 2. Some people here have had great luck with UFO, while others have had major...

    Nostalgia anyone??

    My dad bought a 1980 XS1100 Special new and still has it. Only has a little over 9000 miles on it. Due to problems with his wrists, he doesn't ride it at all anymore, just sits in his shop under cover. I've tried every way imaginable to get the bike from him, but he won't come off it. I really...

    change the looks of the vmax

    Here's an idea for the license plate. I got one from custom dynamics that also adds another brake light. Because I shortened my rear fender, I also had to shorten the inner fender and relocate the plate bracket. Someone on here had done this before and had posted a pic of his chopped inner...

    Hey all, I'm taking the kids to Disneyworld and Sanibel this fall. :clapping: Anybody have suggestions for a condo on Sanibel? We are going to be there for 3 nights. Thanks.
