I'm in a bit of a dilemma. One that I suppose can be easily answered with "Just try a trip for yourself." But I figured I would pose it here.
How practical is a VMax for a long road trip? Let's say I live in St. Louis.... and I want to make a trip to the Barber Vintage Museum on my '93 VMax...

Started feeling guilty about that ratty old coolant probably clogging up my radiator and water jackets, so time for a change before Thunder. This old coolant HAD to be in the motor for at least 10 years or more, because I honestly don't remember the last time changing it.
Ran the bike for a...
I painted the exhaust with VHT 2000 degree paint and bought some VHT header clear coat. I've read for other paint jobs to sand the paint to smooth it then do clear coat. Is the header the same? I'm guessing super fine sand paper to smooth it out then clear coat. Would I just wipe with a...
So.... Danny built me a set of Venture carbs with the internals from my stock carbs that had been totally gunked up by the PO and apparently also by me (by mistake). I got them back and was super excited to have things running smoothly. I put them on and got terrible mileage. I changed my plugs...

Hey hey!
Alright... So I am sitting in my hotel room at Ft. Leonard-wood. Got here end of last month and will be here till mid Dec.
If you remember I was having problems with my Vmax, I figured out that when we put the headlight in it was blowing out the TCI and ended up re-wiring it and...
About to do it, wanted to know how long is enough? The sticky isn't specific so do I need 6 to 12 inches (that's what she said)? Any help is appreciated.
I guess the wish list for the bike, the comment about riding at age 59 again, made me think.
How long have you been riding?
And what did you learn or start riding with?
Me....
1977 Yamaha IT 175 was my first real bike. I rode it around town and around the trails.
My first real...

Over the past few months, I've had so many physical ailments it's not funny. It all started when we went on vacation to Louisville and the Knob Creek Machine Gun Shoot.
I picked up Pneumonia and a couple other things while there. I had several Anxiety / Panic Attacks, feeling closed in at the...
Well I am in Gainesville, FL right now and will be driving to Tacoma,WA before the end of the month.
Problem is my dad isn't doing to well so we are hanging out as long as we can.
So today is the day, exactly 1 year ago, when my Max first graced my garage with his presence. Thanks to the Monkey, the Max has gone through some changes--some necessary, some not so necessarily necessary, some questionable, but most wonderful. You can see his transformation up to now, here...
