I have been asked a couple times what size resistors to use when converting to LED signals or other after market signals, so i created a spread sheet to calculate it for you, all you need to do is measure the resistance of your oem signals and your new signals and punch it in, it then tells you...

Not too long ago I saw a thread from someone that replaced their master cylinders with some aftermarket ones and they included a link. I tried searching but haven't been able to find it. I forget the brand name, but I remember them being decently priced. You picked out the master and then...

So yesterday I decided to take apart my Kerker. Don't ask why, I was curious to see whats inside. I took the baffle out and the thing was empty. All I had in my hand was a metal screen attached to the tip. The thing had no packing in it. Its loud, but not obnoxious. But I wouldn't mind toning it...

Well I tried a search but never found anything overly useful so figured I'd ask outright. I am looking for a replacement handle bar about 31" wide and about 2" taller than stock. Any recommendations?

Hi Guys, I just bought 2 new Shinko tires for my 96 and was thinking of installing an aftermarket fork brace in the process. Is the stock one on the bike good enough? I don't want to burn a $100 bill if it's not going to do anything. I kind of like the looks of the UFO one. I did search the...

So, me and the guys were hanging in the garage like we usually do throughout the winter on Friday nights, fixing and breaking things motorcycle.....drinking down a couple..... Anyways, one of the guys comes in that recently just startd hanging around with us and shows me this flyer about a NEW...

Bought a Tyga carbon front fender and aftermarket fork brace at the same time. Tried to install them but holes in the brace and the fender did not seem to line up. The weird thing is that the stock brace works fine with the Tyga fender and the aftermarket brace works fine with the stock...

I've never been a big fan of the "dummy" gauges that don't have any numbers on them. For whatever reason, they kind of annoy me. If you're going to bother with an actual gauge instead of an idiot light, might as well do it right and calibrate it rather than just slapping a "hot" and "cold" line...

Hi, I just bought my bosses 1986 Blk vmax. It has 4 to 1 Kerker exhaust, K/n filters, Stage 1 jet kit, New headers. He is the original owner. Bought in 86. Only 20,000 miles, hasn't been ran in about 3 years. I've got it at the shop getting a price quote to have her purring again. I was going to...

I need to replace one throttle cable because the plastic elbow broke. Does anyone know where I can find something better? Chrome?

Looks like the smallest section of the stock header is 1 1/4 diameter. Are the aftermarket versions of Marks, Kerker UFO all 1 1/2 inch?

I was wondering whether or not there are some "LOUD" aftermarket horns for the vmax... I dont even want to use the stock puny one... it just doesnt do the max any justice... Its like being an adult male with a voice of a 6 year old... With all the stupid drivers where i live, i need something...

Hey folks. It's time to change the fuel flter on my '89. Any ideas as to who sells the best one? Thanks. Elimax

I have a sunpro 5'' tach and ever since i have hooked it up it is jumpy so i put a resistor in i think .5-1 ohm helped it out a bit til after 5k then jumpy again. my question is should i just use a bigger resistor or do the mod of using diodes to make a four cylender signal for my tach. with two...

Hey guys, i need some clarification. I was thinking to upgrade to an aftermarket air filter and i was wondering whether or not i would have to rejet my carb... Here is the 1 im currently interested in...

I did a search here, but not much came up. I was curious about some custom scoops I've seen, but I didn't come up with anything in searches on the internet. Anybody have a web link they can post here showing some options with prices? Here are some pics I found:

Title says it all. I posted topic in the V-Max Parts wanted area, but I think this section gets much more traffic. Didn't post link here to the Parts-Wanted-Section as I am a newbie here, and I do not don't know all the website rules. Thanks in advance for any leads, Dan

I'm interested in possibly buying the yamaha windscreen for the 09 Max. Just curious if anyones got one yet and how they like it. Anyone have anypictures of the 09 with it on? Same goes with the hard saddlebags that yamaha offers?
