Treason. I wish people would just get the **** out if they hate this country so much. Texas would not last two weeks without the rest of the USA. You guys need to get a life. You talk about loving this country while discussing how to break it apart. You do not know how good you have it. Pay...

Just rode 30 miles and stopped at the bank. When I came back 5 minutes later, the bike would not start. It made the priming sound but did not crank ore. No starter sound at all. I waited 30 minutes thinking it the starter was hot but nothing. The AAA guy hooked up the cable but it did crank...

What kind of handbars do you have?

I am rebuilding my transmission this week. I have the engine broken down and found that the t40 screws (4 ea) holding the middle gear bearing are stripped. I need to ID the size for this screw. Also found the 3 screws holding the main axle bearing stripped as well. I need to ID the size for...

stupid should be painful.

Mine came yesterday (1 week) to the Los Angeles area. It took me 5 minutes to install. Nice quality bits. I bought the four fingers and it is the same size as the stocker. The bushing from my original brake handle is quite worn and must be replaced. I saw the part for $5 at my local Yamaha...

17mm.

Fargo and his son came over my place and spent over 2 hours tinkering with everything. He tested the spark and we had it on all 4 cylinders. He made sure that all the rubbers were in the same place. He verified that the cops were working. He then checked the diaphrams. He decided to back...

how do you remove the cdi from a 2000 vmax?

tried no 2 carbtune on another cylinder and it worked. used no 1 carbtune on number 2 carb and it did not register. it definitely not the tool.

received my carbtune yesterday. tried and tune my rebuild carbs but i could not get cylinder number 2 to register. it will only register at higher rpm (4-5k) on the carbtune. i checked, i have spark. i thought it was the diaphram and changed it with another carb and the same was happening to...

Replaced 2nd gear with a used ebay part and now 2nd gear is there but slipping. I did not have second gear at all before changing it. 2nd gear is slipping under load (4-5k). I want to change it with new parts but I will need the part numbers. I cannot afford to undercut the gears. After...

Ragingmain rebuild my carbs in less than a week. After buying a bike with the second gear issue and having a friend using the tranny as a project, i finally was able to ride the bike for the first time. The carbs were a complete mess until Ragingmain worked on them. He dip my carbs in an...

Did the shotgun method again today. Three of the four carbs are working correctly. The rear right was pretty mucked up. I spray carb cleaners and air a few times but nothing. Changed diaphragm and needle with another carb but still nothing. How else can I clean this carb or do I need to...

thanks guys. i will try and sort out the carb first and then the clutch.

sorry, 2000 vmax. beside the second gear issue, it ran fine last year. it took my friend 8 months to tear into the motor and change the 2nd gear and clutch. i reinstalled the motor but the carb may have been sitting around too long. also changed the fuel filter and gas.

i need a vmax tech in los angeles to look at my bike. carb, clutch and a tune up. i tried the shotgun method twice but the carb is still rough, it will idle now but giving it gas will kill it. i had a friend changed the clutch with the barnett hub. n ot sure if he did it right. he removed...
