    bar end mirrors

    Anybody know where to get silver billet bar end mirrors for the Vmax? Saw some @ obermon-performance in the UK but not sure of the bar end size. Also rather buy in US. Thanks for anyone's help.

    Loose front end?

    I've noticed recently that my front end feels a lot looser than it used to. Going slow speeds and hitting bumps in the road it just feels like it wobbles around way too much. Anyone experience this? known cause/fix? Thanks

    Front end swap

    I'm giving some serious thought to just tossing the whole front of my Max and putting in something else, rather than trying to address its various problems. I know there are a couple of front end kits available, but they are more than I want to spend, and don't really offer the look I want. I'm...

    Question about changing rear end gears

    Venture Rear End - Actual GPS Verified Speed

    Finally got around to checking my speed and rpm with my Venture rear end installed. My speedo was off more than stock as I have a 110/80 radial front tire instead of the stock 110/90 (110/80 having a slightly smaller circumference). At a GPS verified 70 mph, the tach was at 4000 rpm. About 17.5...

    Front end Squeak

    Hey guys. I have a squeak in my front end that I think is coming from the suspension some where that happens over bumps. Originally i thought it was just the spring type things over some of the hydrolic lines, or maybe those lines against the rattle canned headlight bucket, but I can't seem to...

    Rear End Noise

    My 02 developed a creaking/clicking noise while at Thunder this year. I only noticed it while pushing the bike around the lot. More pronounced while backing it up. It was definitely coming from the pumpkin area. There were no performance issues, the bike ran fine and coasted fine. I had many...
