plug

I replaced my sparkplugs about a month ago after having some starting troubles. Everything seemed to be great, but since I have only had the bike for about 6 months (96), I wasn't sure if there was a cause to the old and bad plugs or if they just needed replacing. Well, about a week ago it had...

Most may be familiar with my post about running commonly available COP's from most late model sport bikes. They are pretty cheap, and very easy to add to Mr. Max. Pluses are easier startup, better throttle response and making way for a little more room on the already cramped for space V-max...

Does anyone think that these would work for the max, of course the straight ones. Or what mods would I have to do? http://street.parts-unlimited.com/6/388/6027415

Hey guys - I saw that Mark (maleko89) listed the NGK part number as being DPR8EA-9. On the Outlaw site in the spark plug article the number is DPR9EA-9. I understand the difference is that the #9 plug is colder. In ya'lls opinion is there much of a difference between the two? Since I'm in...

I have decided to get some wire from Kingsborne, but do not know which type to purchase. They offer Mag-wire and Copper Core styles. Below are the desriptions. The boots that I will be using have 5k resistance built in so using the copper core shouldn't be a prob, but I didn't know if the...

I searched the forum for "spark plug gap" and it came up with 104 threads. But none actually discussed what everyone's thoughts are on setting the gap. So I thought I'd throw this out there? I know the manual says the gap is supposed to be 0.8 to 0.9 And when you buy the NGK spark plug the -9...

I have been looking at the ebay listing for the red V-Max spark plugs wires for awhile and decided to make my own. I purchased 4 NGK spark plug ends from a local motorcycle shop, but cannot find any 7mm red spark plug wire to buy by the foot. There were a couple finda on Google, but mostly solid...

I thought that I read /heard somewhre that there is a FACTORY, MAGNETIC oil drain plug from another motorcycle that will fit the max. Venture Maybe?? Does anybody know what bikel???

I ran my 96 Vmax with Stg 1 Dyno Jet kit, K&n, Supertrapp 4inch with no pucks. i dynoed 98rwhp and 75 rwtq on a 50degree day. at about 6200rpm when the Vboost kicks in, the graph gets pretty unstable. any insight would be appreciated...

I finished my valve cover gaskets last weekend. And All week long I've been doing routine maintenance, oils, air pressures, torques, few minor tweeks and blaah blaah blaahs... Well tonight I fired her up for about 5 minutes then rode over to the driveway, about 100 feet. I didn't rev it just...

I have a bunch of spark plugs that got fouled when I had problems with my carbs, I got some of the black off, is there a solution or product that I can apply to clean them. Thanks, Ron :ummm:

Had the bike out over the long weekend and my buddy was telling me that he smells gas comming from the exhaust, I too smell it when I start up. I took the plugs off today and 1 is wet fouled, smells like gasoline, the other 3 are fine. Will adjusting the air/fuel mixture screw fix the problem...

Just called the Yamaha dealership and they only sell wires WITH coils for 360.00 a set. :rofl_200: Anybody have an opinion on this item for sale on Ebay in regards to satisfying my spark plug & wire woes? Actually are the spark plugs even included...

I thought about getting the 8mm but I didn't know if it was too big to fit in the coils.

Is the Vmax headlight an H4 type bulb plug in? If not what is is? Bye for now.

What is a good "hotter" plug to run?

I have stupid question. What's that allen head plug lookin' thingie right next to the sparkplug? It can't be a head bolt or it would be in the top of the piston and it looks to close to the sparkplug for there to be any water jacket right there but maybe that's what it is????
