Well Rice-O-Rama 2011 is two weeks from today. Obviously hoping for good weather.
I'm planning a Rally Point close to the I-90 Palmer Turnpike exit. I will provide a google map location and riding route to ROR-2011 soon when I get on a real computer (this garage one sucks). ROR is about 40...

One big *** Jack-o-lantern.
Its in the quash family for a reason.
There is a great pumpkin Charlie Brown!
Last year there was a State record set, 1100lbs...
Gotta be legal. And please, nothing in the $1B range, y'know .. keep it reasonable in cost. No titanium spokes on chaindrive converted /no front brakes drag bikes here. I'm just curious as to how light one of these can be made? Some parameters to stay inside of are:
*** Single seat = YES...
Thanks for looking in AGAIN -- I've been fighting a rusted tank, carbs gone bad etc. Sealed tank and did Shotgun method. Tried to fire her up and fuel is coming out of (vent tube?) on top of carb that leads to topside of airbox. That particular carb gave me trouble in that the idle screw was...
I'm a bit rough, sometimes known to be a basket case! I hope that Beth can handle another woman from out of state, taking some of you and her time.... I guess I should send you my picture..... :rofl_200::rofl_200::rofl_200::rofl_200:
See you next weekend buddy :clapping:

I'm in the process of making some drivers back rest for the Vmax stock seat to help give our backs a rest on those long riding days. It is quick and easy to install and remove and doesn't look to bad on the bike either, that's what I was trying to accomplish. I will have only 7 of them and they...
You know it's coming... The first video of some redneck catching himself on fire trying to deep fry a 25 lbs. turkey in a 20 gallon pot !!!
Happy Holiday to all.
A few of us had successfully fought off the monkey. Apparantly this has gotten back to monkey central and they've invested over $6 million in a newer, stronger, bionic monkeys.

As some of you know I make a few bits and pieces. Being in NZ the market is small and dealing overseas is Ok but organizing shipping for each and every piece is a pain.
As most of the bits are sold in the US anyway it makes logical sense that have a supplier at your fingertips would make...
Hi.
A bit difficult to explain ; but what do you do when the black "coating" on the motor and on the clutch and brake fluid holder peels off ? A lot of blank spots are visible and it aint' looking nice. Do you use some sort of fire resistant black coating ?
Well after having 2nd gear failure and learning that only way to fix it is removal of engine I decided it was time for something big :-)
So I am pulling the 1198cc but when Max goes back together it will have a 1300cc with Overdrive!!!! I'm going to try and have some fun posting a bunch of pics...
So this past weekend, my rear left header came loose and came out of the Y connector (walker pipes). Tightened everything back up but the nuts seem to be loosening each time i check now. Is it OK to put locktite on these? Or maybe some sort of lockwasher? Some guys I see putting anti-seize...
Coming back around to show Mr Max some love. I have had my 85 Vmax for 19 years now so I felt I wanted something new to ride, so I bought a 04 Ninja ZX10R last fall. I rode it last fall and a couple hundred mile this spring already. Well, I found out at 44 years old the hunched over riding...
Rugby League may be coming to a Sports Field near you . It seems the National Rugby League (NRL) have set up USA NRL and are currently offering top name players coming off contract to sign up and get on board . Not sure if Russell Crowe (co owner of South Sydney Rabbitohs) is behind this but it...
Shopping around online for parts, pretty sure I'm going to throw a flow meter in line behind the fuel pump, and use a mini digital readout to show actual amount of fuel consumed, maybe use a panel mount display and cut it into the airbox shelter rather than hang something on the bars. Either...
So after TONS of emails and shopping, I found a guy with an '07 Vmax.....
It has 700 miles on it, and I paid 7000$ usd for it (i converted, im Canadian)
In mint/like new shape! The guy has a MORLEY MUSCLE SEAT (is including the original), and he is also including a forward control set for...
Well, I've been lurking on this forum for a number of weeks now and it's time to tell my story(besides I have a question). I bought a 96 Vmax new and rode it for 2 years before finances forced a sale. Of course I've wanted
one ever since and recently found a 91 for $2200. I couldn't pass it...
