pressure

Hey all, I put on one of the COO pressure gauges earlier this year. The bike was running between 8-9 psi per 1000 rpm. Today, went for a ride and noticed was only getting between 6-7 per 1000. Is this something to worry about? It was hot as hell here today, above 100, and I was riding around in...

I have some questions about the part called a pressure sensor in the manual that conects to the vacuum port, I assumed it was a timing advance control ? My concern is mine dosent hold vacuum, and the cylinder that it is conected to appears to be very lean (header is blue) could this be the...

Just received my gauge, WOW, very elegant & well built, much nicer than autometer gauges, when off its black turn it on & it goes full needle sweep test, you have two back light color options blue & white very visible in day light, the electrical sender needed to be painted black so its not...

I'm runnig a set of Roadtec Z6 interact. Metzeler advice 34(36)/36(38) for solo ride on the sport touring. Guys, how much pressure do you put in ur radials ?

i have been eyeing up a Cycle one off oil pressure kit for some time now, i was just curious what everyones experience is with these, ideally i want to get a kit that mounts to the speedo, only thing is the only ones i can see on the site are chrome and i want a black mount with a white face...

It occured to me while taking my engine apart that there are no cam bearings???? Could this be one of the places where oil pressure is lost on higher mileage Maxes that exhibit good rod and journal bearings, i.e. no visible wear???? Also.... I wonder if these engines have places that...

I installed an oil pressure gauge kit from cycleoneoff a couple of weeks ago just because I don't really feel comfortable not being able to see some type of oil pressure reading. Anyways, I really have no idea what the op gauge should be reading under normal conditions but mine seems to be...

Hey all, I bought one of COO's oil pressure gauges and finally got around to mounting it this morning. When I got the old plug out and went to install the gauge's plug, I realized that I had not received the new crush washer with it.:confused2: Thanks to the forum, though, I was able to...

Alright I wasnt sure what thread to jump in with this so I am just making another one. (Because we alllll love sifting through 100's of threads looking for the one that helps us) Anyhow, back story: Shortly after getting my vmax, I put it down, "gently" in the grass. We picked it up (Me and a...

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...

I thought I had read in a back issue of a VBoost magazine that someone had substituted a mechanical "preload" in place of the stock air pressure fitting at the top of the front forks. I've gone back through them and cannot find it. Has anyone a) heard of this? b) know anything about it? c) tried...

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??

Where's the best ( only ? ) place to hook up the gauge ?

Has anybody tried an electric oil pressure gauge instead of a mechanical? (screw a sender into the adapter instead of the hose) Randy in Phoenix

SGT For Oil Pressure???? Verified it's OK...... I have an oil pressure gauge coming from Cycle One Off. In the mean time, I'll ask a question about a Go-No Go indication using the sight glass as an indicator. With the bike setting level, my oil level is at the top mark for the sight glass. I...

What is the stock front and rear recommended tire pressures?

Went to bleed / flush the clutch master the other night and had an odd experience. Opening the bleeder without touchingthe clutch lever resulted in a continuous flow of fluid, to the extent that my master reservoir was draining itself. I don't know if I have a residual pressure issue that...

I just installed my cycle-one off oil pressure gauge and was wondering what most people get at startup. Mine starts at about 20-25 then warms up to about 30 psi. i bought the o ring kit too but i'm trying to decide should i hold off since that is going to require more work. Is that pressure...

I have an extra oil pressure gauge lying around and i want to hook it up to the bike. I see where people use a fitting to do this. What type of fitting is it and where can i get it? Thanks, Sid

I know bleeding has been covered a few times and I've read all I can find... I have just replaced both master cylinders, brake & clutch with OEM's and replaced the lines with braided lines. Initially I couldn't get pressure in either lever. I eventually got the clutch working after starting...
