    Free Harbor Freight float charger

    Don't use them on a newer vehicle... They can't keep up with the daily rate of discharge the battery sees. lol I used one on my G8 when I was gone on vacation for a couple of weeks, and when I came home it was damn near dead. The battery was only a month or so old at that point too. lol...

    largest tire that will fit a stock rim on a gen 1 vmax?

    Actually Spring is HERE... lol 170/80-15 I believe is right. 180 will fit but isn't recommended. Sent from my iPad using special algorithms and data nodes.

    Paint Removal From Side Scoops

    Is it paint or powder? There in lies the problem. Any gel style paint remover will work at removing regular paint, but will not work well with powder. Auto-Zone has a spray on paint remover that I've heard works real well too. Chris

    They're back!

    I haven't watched it since probably 2006 or so... It got lame long ago... I see they built some multi-million dollar space... I wouldn't go back if they paid me. Lame, bull ****, dysfunctional family. I'll watch the Cosby Show instead... Chris

    '85 - '92 vs '93-'95 Oil Filter Bolt, any difference?

    There are different Yamaha bolts that FIT the Vmax but are NOT intended for it. If you use the wrong one, it WILL cause engine failure. Just verify that ALL cross drilled holes are identical on both bolts.

    Need New Tires AGAIN!!

    Re: need AGAIN new tires Touring tires like the storm and the ME880 run a flatter profile so they're wider looking and may actually be slightly wider. Have you looked into a dual compound tire? Something like the Michelin or Pirelli? They have harder rubber down the center and softer on the...

    YSS Suspension products as seen in 'Motorcycle Classics' May/June 2011

    Race-Tech will do all the same and has history to back up their claims. I'm not saying this YSS isn't a good company, but I like to see some positive reviews before pulling the trigger on things. Unfortunately I learned this the hard way in 2007 with THIS bike. I now go with what people...

    Half helmet

    All great info, but the best one was the last... "Ride your own ride" Meaning; ride to YOUR limits, not to the limits of those you're with. Helmets and gear for the win. People don't think about what it feels like to hit your head on concrete. I have a self preservation meter that hits...

    To-do List: Your V-Max

    I did the same thing when I started my "build". Now my list looks like such: Wake up Go to Work Go to gym Go home Play with Eli Put Eli to sleep Go to sleep lol I wouldn't have it any other way... That being said, I DO need to get the bike out. I'll probably do it some time in late May...

    Half helmet

    It'll get worse when we get "Free" (that's ********) health care... I'll be damned if I want to pay more in taxes to let some a-hole go out and wreck and cause injury to themselves that a helmet or seat belt would have kept from happening.

    May have to sell the Vmax

    This really blows, but I have a question or two... Was this the first time you'd missed work recently? Did you call in and tell them you weren't coming in? Chris

    He does all sorts of custom exhaust systems for buggies and other vehicles. He can make just about any can opening you want. I think I've heard of as large as 2.75" :eusa_dance:

    Progressive 412's better than stock shocks?

    I had my 412s dechromed and powder coated black just for that reason. My 440s came all black. Sent from my iPad using special algorithms and data nodes.
