Hello folks first post. My question, normally do the rear yellow lights stay on constant and then blink only when the turn signal switch is activated? Mine are constant off then blink when the turn signal is throw My front yellow lights run constant on, and only blink when the turn...

Okay, so I have owned my 2005 vmax for several weeks now, and have about 4 fuel ups. Each fuel up has been at 80 miles, the fuel light doesn't come on, but the bike starts to stall out causing me to switch the gas over to reserve and find a gas station. here are my main concerns. I know...

I just received my ufo radiance LED front turn signals and a flash relay box. Questions: Can I run the front leds and keep the back ones stock or will I need to change both to leds. I don't mind the rear stock lights but hated the way the front signals looks and the way they moved in the wind...

I've noticed that when I fill up to the lip, of the neck of the fuel tank, a couple seconds later the fuel will go down. I'll fill it back up, and the process repeats. Where does the fuel go? I would assume it would go out the vent tube, but never have I found spilled fuel.

Can you use Race techs Gold Valve Cartridge Emulators with a Progressive front end lower kit and would there be a difference with them then with out them? Thanks.

Battery Question I purchased a PC680 ODYSSEY Drycell Battery in 2010. This was supposed to be the cat's meow back in that year. Very heavy though (16 lbs) nearly twice what the OEM battery was. Lots of cranking amps and still works like new at the moment. However; I am probably pushing its...

Long story short, I’ve been riding for over 30 years and never had or wanted a loud bike. In fact I’ve never even had a bike with an aftermarket can, including the four Vmaxes I’ve owned. That said, I’ve been looking at systems for my 98. Before I dive into this I was wondering what kind of...

I'm getting ready to put seafoam in the choke vent and PAJ1 but the information I found doesn't say the amount?? It says use a syringe from a vet supply or autoparts store which I have but doesn't mention the amount!

Hi all you '85 owners, I'm wondering if you all could check this small thing for me. I read everywhere that when you start the bike, the fuel and oil light should come on and go off again. Well on my bike only the oil light seems to do that. I've been reading and troubleshooting like crazy...

Just wondering what fuel filter most of you guys use. I just got a 99 VMax and figured it wouldn't hurt to change it. So do you guys use a OEM yamaha? A universal autozone/pep boys in line one? Thanks for the opinions guys! This forum is pretty cool how everyone is so willing to help out other...

Hey all, Apologies in advance I'm a new rider and know little about engines. The following has happened twice now, both on hot days, in NYC stop and go slow traffic. 1) I notice the engine feeling extra hot 2) The needle runs up to the red (just inside the red) 3) I soon after notice coolant...

Hey Gang, I'm hoping someone can help me. Does anybody know what the size of the holes in the metal inner fender support thingy is? (see red arrow in pic below) (I'm guessing 5/16"..but hard to tell) :ummm: I'm making my own support for the CBR taillight mod, and I do not currently have the...

I'm working on a set of frame sliders and would like to use the front engine mounts as a connection point. Currently there is a long rod that runs from side to side across the front of the engine. I'd like to replace that with individual bolts on each side. Does anyone know why they used a...

If I swap the adjustable bolt from the right side to the left side will the one-piece bolt push the swingarm farther to the left? I need to get this rear wheel moved over towards the left so it's centered better. Right now if I let go of the bars I make a pretty decent left lane change. I'd like...

I am looking at a full exhaust or slip on's. If I put a full system on do i need to rejet my carbs? I am thinking I have to, the bike is stock at this point with the oem air filter. Thanks.

I want to go with the Hella dual horn set up...does any one have a wiring diagram to hook up two horns with a relay? Can I use this relay (in pic)...I have a box of these relays....it has 30, 85,86 ,87 and 87a..if so , how would I wire this up to a two horn set up? What gauge wires and what...

The three bolts that hold the retaining ring.....I had to use a chisel ended punch to get them lose...so can i just use normal contersunk bolts ? There's no pressure on them...I'm guessing off the shelf from a bolt stockists.

Evening guys and gals. I know this question has been posted before, but I've been giving it some thought and I've decide to ask it anyway. Long story short, I'm about a month away from taking my Motorcycle safety course program and then getting my licence. I'm 34 years old so I'm a bit late...
