    Automatic Kickstand and Frame Welding

    I'm looking at getting a motorcycle again. I've had two V65 Magna's in the past, I still like them, but I kind of want to try something new. I'm looking at a 1995 VMAX When you lift the weight off the side kickstand, it automatically pops up into the stored/riding position. I found it very...

    Muscle Frame Braces

    After a much long awaited delay! I don't have many in the first batch and can't remember who has made commitments already I need to fulfill. I only have emails for one at the moment! [email protected] to reserve and get your set. $200 coated or $170 raw finish. Chrome is an available option...

    Sparking from engine to frame

    This only happens intermittently (and, at night when it's dark).....I will notice sparking from the plug wire AND/OR the engine (valve cover) to the frame of the bike. Again, it's only on occasion, and it's from the #1 cylinder (left side, closest to rider?). Has anyone seen that sort of thing...

    1st Gen VMax Frame Braces

    Can't help but want those billet frame braces from Exactrep. But at $350+ shipped, I take a breath and put it on my wish list instead. Plus ordering from the UK is not what I had hoped. There must be a local shop making these bars in the US. They would be a huge selling item for VMax owners. Is...

    Front fork diameter and frame differences

    Can someone tell me if there is any difference in the diameter of the front forks between a 1986 and a 2005. I want to swap out forks and need to know if I have to change out the tree as well. I don't have the 2005 forks on hand yet, so I cannot measure them. Also, are there any overall...

    New (to me) frame braces

    Got some used Sportmax braces from Sean. Finally got my buddy who has a tig welder to put the tabs on. Much more stable now in the high speed cornering. Hopefully I can go the rest of the riding season without adding anything else....although I have been looking at the Harlan shift lights...

    Tool for Frame Badge?

    I have a 2010 VMAX and want to change the frame badges (silver triangles on the sides just to the rear of the engine). Does anybody know which tool is used to remove the 3 bolts/screws? It appears to be a Torx but I want to be sure. The Torx bits I already have are too small. I have a history of...

    Frame cross brace

    Does anyone have an image of the post-1995 VMAX with the "curved" cross brace to clear the spin on filter. Just about to get the adapter for my '85, but need the curved brace. Never seen one close up, and don't know what to look for that's different. Cycle one-off want $105 for a brand new one...
