lever

Having never ridden a Vmax until a couple weeks ago and having never used a hydraulic clutch I don't know how hard it should be to pull the clutch in. I'm used to my Harley Ultra with the heavy clutch spring and it is much easier to pull than my '93 Vmax. Is this normal for the bike or do I have...

My clutch was acting a little weird. Usually the friction point is in the first inch, It was near the middle/ end. so I tried to bleed some air out. Now I have no pressure in the line what so ever. I don't have a mityvac, Any advice??

i was going to try out joelyons50023's idea i had selected a feeler and was just about to cut it, when i spied one of those copper washers used for the banjo bolts lying on the ground. it was deformed and had been smooshed into an oval. "hmmm, those washers are pretty soft," i said to...

Hey all. I installed the PCW HD spring kit today with a friend. Followed the instructions to a tee, reassembled it and now my clutch lever wont pull in at all. disassembled everything, checked it against my Clymer manual and still nothing. Even with the pressure plate and spring removed...

Hey Vmaxers, I laid my 2002 down a couple of weeks ago, nothing serious but of course damage. I got my replacement levers from Extracep (nice!) and am looking at the clutch side. During the fall, the clutch lever broke and it appears that some parts are missing. I was looking at Yamaha Nation...

Can anyone suggest where to pick up some replacement levers? I was going to get them from Exactrep but they don't offer them in black (closest is carbon-fiber). Any suggestions for a descent set? TIA.

Nothing is wrong with it. It's just that the space provided from the foot peg to the shift lever is too close imo. I wear boots when riding and doesn't provide alot of clearance when shifting; especially when going from first to second. Is there an after market shift lever, that provides more...

Anybody got a clutch lever laying around??? Mine is bent......has been since I got it...... Ain't got to be pretty.......just STRAIGHT:damn angry: Thanks...

I just swapped my stock clutch master cylinder to the FJR1300 master cylinder as I really wanted to adjustable lever. However, upon removing the stock master I noticed two wires that connect to something attached to the bottom of the lever. Seems to have a pin that gets pushed in when you...

Would someone mind looking at their clutch lever and telling me if it looks like this: Picture is lousy I know, but what I wanna know is how the lever is supposed to connect with the pushrod coming out of the MC - you can see that my pushrod is just sitting in the hole in the lever. Am I...

I changed out my clutch lever for a black one today, and after finishing up, the lever pull feels softer that before. What could I have done to affect clutch pull effort just from changing out levers?:ummm:Thanks

Well, as you know our fellow member of the down under contingent went down the other day and broke some bits. I offered him a spare lever which I was sure I still had but after an exhaustive search today I've come to the conclusion that I biffed it into the rubbish which now leaves me feeling...

How many people are interested in doing this mod? I will do it and think an exchange program might work. Does that sound like a plan? Just need to get some numbers for ordering bearings etc.

I managed to tip the bike over in the drive way yesterday :bang head:... Everything survived just fine except for my foot shifter lever. I am having a hard time finding one on ebay or just about anywhere. Ebay has LOTS of shift levers for sport bikes that I like the looks of alot but have no...

The hydraulik clutch on my V-Max (2002) connects at the very last mm of the lever way. Is there a way to adjust the clutch mechanism so the the clutch catches in the middle on the lever movement ?? Any suggestions will be apreciated. elcondecharlie [email protected]

Can someone tell me the order of the screw/washers for the choke lever? I know the spring goes on first but not sure after that. The screw hole of my old carb was stripped so never used the screw. Now that I swapped carbs (Thanks Fargo!) I can't for the life of me remember how it goes. Thanks.

Hello, I'm going to pick up my 2007 VMAX Tuesday and it's been about 10 years since I sold my last VMAX so my memory is not so good. Can someone tell me what tool and size of tool I'll need to Move brake lever assembly and/or switch assembly. I have to drive it back about 550 miles so I...

Was reversing the bike out of a driveway and caught the rear header on the edge of the kerb. Lifted the bike with the handlebars and freed it up but while I was lifting my arm applied force to the brake lever and SNAP. The ******* broke clean off near where the lever meets the pivot...

Does anyone know where I can get a chrome clutch lever. My 2000 max has a chrome front brake lever the previous owner said it fell over and he replaced the clutch lever with a stock unit. Will a older venture lever work I think some of them were chrome.
