    Crankcase breather & K&N Air filters

    I have K&N air filters, the crankcase breather canister or oil/air seperater is connected to the front two air filters with rubber lines. Two larger lines come up from the crankcase and plug into the bottom of the breather canister. I started investigating this because of oil around the carbs...

    Air Force One are flying more hours than a rookie on a beer run

    This is from Mark Knoller of CBS. The pilots and crew of Air Force One are flying more hours than a rookie on a beer run. They are tired of it too, and are adding more crew to Air Force-1, - I know this for a fact because I'm one of the instructors that trains the crews. Our company (Atlas Air)...

    Can somebody explain what air correctors are?

    I have been reading about them that they need to be used with a modded air box or if running just the filters. I tried searching for pictures but didn't find any. So what are they for?

    Vmax Air Boxes and my thoughts

    I have my theory about the stumble when hot issue happens and #1 cause is voltage drop because of extra taxing of electrical voltage dropping and the other is having A/f circuits open too far. As the engine gets hotter the air box being under the faux cover never sees ambient temperature unless...

    Air valve issue

    I just put on my new shinko's and I went to check the front air pressure, but the valve seems too deep for the guage to work. I had to loosen up the actual valve to get the reading. I thought perhaps the valve needed replacing so I put in a new one and same results. Is there something wrong...

    How do I attatch the air box to the top of the carbs??

    I just bought my first motorcycle (that runs and drives). I accidentally left the key on yesterday while hanging out with my daughter and the battery went dead. I am also waiting on a screw for the clutch lever perch, as that snapped off right above the threads. So the bike is in the garage...

    Fuel line Air bleed valve.

    My carbs require the flue line to be routed down low between the cylinders close to where the oil breather is. This creates a high spot where air gets trapped in my fuel system. Iv removed the air before but its a pain in the ass preventing fuel from spraying all over uncontrolled. Can anyone...

    air shifter?

    Hi everyone I was wondering if an air shifter would trash a stock trans? I just updated my shift segment and did the DD clutch mod and was really considering an air shifter too but the trans is stock other than the above mentioned mods, would it hold up or is it a bad idea? Thanks in advance...

    mechanical substitute for air pressure in front forks?

    I thought I had read in a back issue of a VBoost magazine that someone had substituted a mechanical "preload" in place of the stock air pressure fitting at the top of the front forks. I've gone back through them and cannot find it. Has anyone a) heard of this? b) know anything about it? c) tried...

    Do Your Air Scoops Look Like This?

    This is a topic I have running on vmaxchat.co.uk as well. Notice how the curves on the air scoops are misaligned with the carb disphram covers. Has anyone else come across this before? Thus far the debate is whether the bikes frame is bent, or the carbs are not seated properly. Im convinced...
