Guys, I read the entire thread. Squeeze (Lutz) is a good friend of mine and posts often to the VMAXXERS list. However, I would post this under the "Believe it when I see it" column. InterMOT, the worlds biggest motorcycle trade fair is this fall in Collogne (Koln). If it is to be in the...

Thanks guys. To stay on topic, it is a '93 that I bought in used with 700 miles on it in '95 for $5500. Over the last 13 years I have probably invested $15K in it. I have had 2 different 4-1 exhausts (Holeshot and Hindle) 3 different 4-2 (HMF, and 2 different BSM). I have a set of Dymag...

Exactly $10.83 Wait a minute that is my gasoline receipt.

Sean, All, The Odometer is also not working. I want to wait until I have the new speedometer cable and try that 1st before I break apart the speedometer. Keep your various appendages crossed for me. I do want to get it fixed really soon because I am leaving on Sunday. Flying to St. Louis...

Yes it is mechanical. That is why I am asking if anyone knows how to give it a test. BTW the lights work fine.

I am not quite sure that I am following your chain of thought here. Are you saying to put a piece of wood into the speedometer somehow? :ummm:

I was driving home from Stuttgart on Saturday when my speedometer needle started jumping around and finally just stayed on zero. I knew it had to be wrong since I was sure to be travelling about 80MPH according to my GPS and things were whizzing by. I have checked the cable and it seems to be...

Get my 2nd engine fixed. It has sat in storage since 1999 when it went south. I still do not even know what is wrong with it. Probably a spun bearing.

Finally had a day without rain. I was able to get out and ride for a few hours. It was not particularly warm, only about 55 degrees. My knees are still feeling it. I guess all of those years in the Infantry are finally catching up to me. Seemed that everyone else around here had the same idea...

You should probably get one. I am not an expert but I would think that this could cause problems without it. If it is also missing from the intake under carb #2 (left front) then it is also missing the nozzle that is inline in that hose. Here are the Yamaha Part numbers: Hose 90445-090A9-00...

I have the entire Stage VII installed to include the 4 individual K&N filters. My setup: 165 Mains 190 PAJ E-clips on position #3 (down from the flat end)

I have a Dynojet Stage VII carburetor jet kit. It works fine with the BSM.

Does Denmark have the noise restrictions like here in Germany? Do you have a version of something like T?V there? You need to know that the HMF, UFO, and Dale Walker 4-2 systems are VERY LOUD compared to European exhausts. My HMF read 99dB when I went to inspection last year. That was brand...

At the IMOT in Munich this past February, I saw a Royal Enfield that was made in India that was a Diesel. The engine would easily fit into the Max Frame. Just fab up a few mounting brackets and your proud eco friendly 435cc "Beast" will be ready to be unleashed. Probably get 500 miles to the...

Damn! I thought that maybe I would at least get something for "Thinking" that you were smart.:rofl_200: Next time I will aim lower.

My recommendation to you would be "Get as new of a model as you can afford."

Well you just described me to a T.

If her name is Chris I wish I was a handlebar!

Isn't that a picture of Chris in his avatar? You know, the one on the handlebar.
