    COPS gone bad.

    Bought 03-04 HONDA CBR600RR second hand coils on ebay with the harness for my '98. Soldered up the harness and crimped on insulated spade lugs for the connection. Just rode the bike and it is not running too well, low power and a little rough. Am guessing one of them is not wired up well or 1 of...

    Bad Luck during routine Morley HD Oiler installation

    Holy crap. I am in the process of installing the Morley HD Oiling Kit. I just got my 45 degree snap ring pliers and removed the snap ring on the inside oil pump drive gear and pulled the shaft out the outside. The gear dropped out on my chest as I expected. I cleaned the shaft and the...

    Bad rectifier? Replacement options in the UK?

    I just replaced my bulging battery, and she coughed straight back into life. However, checking the voltage across the terminals while idling at around 1000rpm, it was around 15V, jumping to 17V if I increased the revs. So the R/R is cooked, I think? Looking at options in the UK...

    Possible bad starter-clutch. Confirm?

    Got on Ugly to go to work this morning and he wouldn't start :-( I just got a whirring sound accompanied by a clatter, but the engine wouldn't turn (except for once or twice). So I came here to look for info and ran across a thread that said NEVER try to start on a low battery because it'll...

    The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

    The Good: My '85 Max with over 38k, has never exhibited the dreaded 2nd gear problem until now. The Bad: My v-boost has never worked until now. The Ugly: Finally got the v-boost working, and now whenever v-boost engages in 2nd gear, it pops out of gear. DAMN - DAMN - DAMN ! ! ! :bang head: :bang...

    Under 1000RPM idle speed BAD? Low/no oil pressure??

    Hey I read its bad to set the idle under 1000rpm for fear of low/no oil pressure, so I've been keeping her at 1050-1150rpm... Any definitive answers to that one? Is it bad to let the rpms fall below 1000rpm?

    Good news/ less than good news. ( nothing too bad though )

    Good news : I'm back from deployment at least a week or so earlier than originally expected. The bad news is being home earlier = wife has not reactivated the Max's insurance ( and it is a most gorgeous prairie morning ) At least she fired right up after a couple hours on the Battery Tender.

    VMAX Outlaw - Bad Temp Switch

    So I have my mostly stock VMAX and I've been upgrading some things along the way. Did the crimp fix and indeed I went from 16vdc charging to 17.1 vdc charging. Phenomenal! The thing has been running hot as hell whenever I get stuck in traffic or behind damn Sunday drivers. So I ordered...

    When your having a bad day....

    Just go on Facebook to see your Turbo Busa on the Dyno making 228 hp I guess is a way to end it on a better note.... Sometimes if you only had a little more time with something you could figure it out yourself......But having finished the Vmax in time for Thunder was a HUGE accomplishment...

    Do Final Drive Bearings Go Bad?

    So, quick question here: has anyone ever had a final drive bearing go bad? The reason I'm asking is because when I put my max on the center stand and rotate the tire it's rather hard to rotate and you can hear what definitely sounds like a bad bearing. I know it is not the wheel bearing as I...
