Hello all,
First time poster here, just recently bought a 2000 Vmax with 10,000 miles it is sputtering/popping and shutting off at low throttle I have to turn the key off then back on for it to start, without turning the key off when it shuts off it will crank but just pop and sputter will...
Here is a video that I saw this morning. A VERY BIG OOPS.
Doesnt look like he was paying attention, when the officer was stopping and turning left.

A stupid, cop-baiting maneuver in traffic by a motorcyclist who was

A motorcyclist in Eugene, Oregon has been awarded $180,000 after a jury concluded a police officer used excessive force to detain him after a chase. The officer was in an UNMARKED police car, rear-ended the biker and broke his collar bone by kicking him in the chest even though the guy was...

Neither was the case, in fact I couldn't find one single coil crack....unusual to say the least.
Anyhow the coil sticks, connectors and wire (including...

I am guessing after the chase, the cop had his finger on the trigger and accidentally squeezed off two rounds...:blink000:

I can have my 89 sitting for weeks and go out to fire it up and it will start right up. I ride for a while or even just let it warm up, turn it off, and it won't fire back up for a while. I have fixed EVERYTHING that is associated with the hot start issue. I took it to Mark a few weeks ago and...
I have been loving my new to me 06 Vmax since buying it last fall. Had to have the carbs redone by Kyle Clegg here in the Tampa area since I have very little mechanical background, no tools, and no real time to play with my own bike mechanically.
Since Kyle got everything going smoothly...I...
I am liquidating some COP holding brackets due to lack of maintenance ease. in regards to removing coils and spark plug removal. These are nice powder coated black brackets (one side with "Spilcker Designs and the other plain black) Regular price is $50 + shipping I am Liquidating this style for...
There seems to be some pretty good evidence that running COP's without resistors on the earlier model VMax's can result in a change in the boost opening rpm from 6K ± to around 7500.
I and a couple others have noticed this....anyone else?
I just installed Gannon's cop kit. When I was done bike wasn't starting so I went back through and checked and rechecked all connections. I got it started and it runs great once running but hard to start every time. Bike. Has always started very quickly before. No issues with anything I was just...
