    86 Running like junk

    85 Running like junk Well my beloved but definitely abused in the past 85 is having some problems. To give everyone an idea of what I'm dealing with it looks like a blind person attacked the poor thing with sidecutters and an equally blind person tried putting the wires back together. Random...

    86 kawi 454LTD

    Went and picked up my cousin's new to her, 86 Kawasaki 454LTD. It's rough, she paid $500. It runs, needs a little work but should be a good beginner bike. It's low seat height, it's a side by side twin, liquid cooled. Very basic. Needs carb work, runs on one cylinder, I think float is stuck...

    86 Vmax project

    Hey everyone! First off, I have recently acquired a running 86 Vmax. It does need some loving though. I found that the coolant tube was cracked and noticed that I can use the one off my 83 Venture. I'm curious to know what else can I use off the venture to improve or help with the max. I came...

    11 week report 86 max

    Okay boys, bought this thing from a chef after back surgery. I have hardly gotten off it since the last week of may when purchased. It still has a little chuff when goosing the throttle before warm, not enough to venture into. It appears to have a small oil seep that allows oil to run down on...

    86

    So I have been riding the 86 vmax for nine weeks now. I wear it instead of it wearing me now. My 22 month old grandson heard a few thunderbolts last night and said, "Grandpa, cycle, go work", truth from the mouth of a babe, the super trapp muffler on the four in one sounds like thunder. I do...

    86 VF1000R..... I found one!

    http://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/mcy/5014913155.html Price is more than I would like to spend. But its one bike I do miss. It had smooth power, it was fast and comfortable. This one looks decent, considering they only imported 2600 of them.

    Another Vmax

    Well as the title says, I have a new to me Vmax. This used to be John Blaids bike, and after doing a lot of work, he just got tired of working on it, so I made a deal for the bike and all of his spare parts. It has 444 shocks on the rear, that I will transfer to my 07, and I will put my 418's...

    P/U coil testing '86 model

    It appears the original Yamaha service manual is wrong about using the orange wire as the common wire for testing the two p/u coil models '85 - '89 (as mentioned by Maleko in a post many moons ago). The black wire is the common. I'm always reluctant to say the manual is wrong but they also...

    First Gen '85 or '86 In HughsNet Commercial

    Happened to notice a first generation Max in a HughsNet Internet Commercial while watching the tube this week. Looks like an '85 or '86. Good to see the ole 1st Gens are still getting a few seconds of fame! Too bad the next scene is the gauges of a Virago or something.... HughesNet Gen4 TV...

    86 dies when wet

    Hey guys. My 86 dies whenever it gets wet. Weather I wash it or get caught in the rain. After it sits for a day or two and dries out it will restart. I can't pinpoint exactly what it is. Any thoughts?
