days

I disassembled and cleaned/rebuilt a set of carbs. The enrichener plungers were very-sticky, but overnight in PB Blaster and they surrendered. I use an ultrasonic bath and a soda blaster, and whatever won't fully-release gets scotchbrite pad work and/or a bench grinder wire wheel. I hope to...

The last few days I have been looking into lowering my Vmax and after a lot of reading, research and help from Miles, Sean and Rusty. I have decided to not lower my Vmax. The work involved in lowering the Vmax, the unknown problems that always come up when doing any project I have decided to...

I'm pretty stoked. I'm heading to the U.S. again soon (business trip change of plans). I purchased some COPs from Blaxmax and will bring those back to Hungary with me. I'll also be adding a new air filter, and that will be the extent of my pre-race maintenance. I'll be bringing my son with me...

This is almost a surreal moment for me. 6 days ago, my daughter slid off the road and destroyed our Mini Cooper. Total loss. Then today, I crashed my Trabant. Looked down for a second, and then noticed the car in front of me stopped at a crosswalk. The roads were a little slippery and I had not...

So, I shelled out a couple of hundred bucks for a Shorai battery; installed in on Wednesday night. The bike started wonderfully Wednesday night and Thursday. I didn't ride it on Friday, Saturday or Sunday. Sunday night, I decide to take a quick spin, go to start the bike and it won't even...

Well I had big plans yesterday to work on the max but it was definitely a Monday. I bent down to pick up the dog dish and came back up to meet the sharp corner of a kitchen cabinet. I saw nothing but spots and hit the floor for a bit. I had Christine tape my forehead back together as it was...

Last year, after many years of trouble-free operation, my fuel pump started the continuous clicking when the key was turned on. I found the fix here on the forum (What to do when your fuel pump clicks like a SOB) and tried it. The first time I did it, it worked for several months, then started...

http://www.fox5vegas.com/story/24843552/the-man-of-men WATSON, LA (WAFB) - On a rainy Monday afternoon, the buzz of air-powered tools rattled through the garage at CSC Lifts, Liners, and Accessories. The experienced hands of Darrell Carmena applied just the right pressure to make the tools...

This is Relaxing and Therapeutic. It also helps with some depression like stated below. When you get down and out, maybe a little depressed, it always helps to think of your friends enduring harder times than yourself. For me, this has helped tremendously. What fun!!! If he gets stuck...

Well its been awhile since I've been on here mainly because I bought a house and got engaged and when I surf the forum I spend money on my bike hahaha. But I wanted to share my amazing morning hunt with you guys. Friday night 12/07/2013 my future brother in law came with me to hunt I stayed...

I am not trying to nit pick here, but is there no Thanksgiving this year? Just happened to notice it was not listed in the upcoming events. Maybe this was intentional as we may not have anything to be thankful for after the election. That or there is a shortage of maze to make fuel! :bang...

..is anyone else noticing or is it just here? All other internet sites load up instantly. Vmaxforum.net, using either Safari or FireFox on my Apple laptop (OSX 10.7.3 Lion), takes almost a minute to access any of its pages! :ummm::ummm:

Hey guys, Ive been off for a bit. kind of against my will. I went down on my 95 and have been laid up recouping from the hard drop. I busted my back up (it was broken in a car wreck years ago) this didnt help me much. I am getting better and will be doing a rebuild on the bike for certain. Im...

I just got power back after seven days and seven nights without:bang head:. the early noreaster dumped 10 inches of snow on trees that still had their leaves on, needless to say ALOT of trees came down including several in my yard. The storm was last saterday, sunday and monday I spent...
