question

OK, so I have a basically stock VMAX, except it has a 4 into 1 Holeshot on it. It has NO carbs on it right now. I have a stock set ready to rebuild, but I don't have any Dyno-jet or Factory Pro needles to put in it, and really don't want to spend the $$$ another another kit. I also have an...

Just picked up a 98 model that's been DynoJett'd, 155's according to the documentation I was given, including a dyno run where it pulled 110 hp and 77 lbs of torque. It looks like there are stock needles in the kit too, so assumed they've been added too, bike has Slip-on Trapps with 14 discs...

Last couple of rides when the low fuel light would come, engine would start to cut out, go to reserve. No problem, for maybe 20 seconds, engine would start to cut out again. Recycle reserve switch, runs good, cuts out again. Nursed to next gas station. Any ideas?

Is it easy to remove the circlip and bearing/pin so as to separate the UJ ? I need to do this so I can put a spindle through to set up the fjr arm. From reading on here I see undoing the yoke securing nut is a hard job unless the yoke is separated. With half the UJ gone I'd have enough room.

Hi, If only one of the coil is bad, can we just replace that one (or two) coil with COP or do we have to replace all four of them at once? Thanks, Regards,

During a ride last week I went to pass a large, slow truck. In doing so, I revved a bit longer than I normally do. It seems like I hit a complete flat spot, almost like a rev limiter. I'm under the assumption that the Vmax doesn't have a one. So my question is, what happened and do I need...

Working on an 85, bought non-running. It has a 4 into 1 Holeshot exhaust and factory airbox setup. I took the carbs apart and rebuilt them with a kit, cleaned it all up and put it back together. The previous owner said that he never did anything to the carbs when he put the Holeshot on it...

Do I need to convert to Stage 1 or other jets if I remove the airbox and use individual K&N air filters? I have stock mufflers with no Vboost (i.e. Vboost all the time). Currently runs great but would like to improve performance while maintaining stock mufflers (would be happy to modify stock...

I will be picking up my new bike tomorrow(2000 VMax); my last ride was a 1994 Suzuki RF900. Long story short, when my low fuel light in my RF900 would come on it would start to shudder necessitating the switch of the petcock to the reserve position. I decided to bypass the petcock altogether and...

What happens if the map sensor goes bad? Does it run rich at low rpm?

I am in need of new tires and I was looking at the metzlers. My question is, by changing from the OEM of 150-90-15 to the 170-80-15 will my speedometer be affected and if so by how much? Also, if there is a change can you adjust the speedometer some how to compensate for the change in reading...

Question guys. The Clymer manual for the 91 states that the bike is recommends regular fuel, and no higher ethanol use than E10. It seems that the majority of people are running high octane. Can you post your year and fuel type use?

So on this last set of carbs I rebuilt, the A/F brass plugs had been taken out, and 3 of the 4 holes were EMPTY. I had some spare carbs laying around and was able to insert them into 3 of the 4 holes, but on the forth hole, the A/F won't start threading? Looking into the hole, it doesn't look...

Where do you guys normally set your Idle RPM?

Hi, I just noticed my brake fluid in the clutch master cylinder is alot browner than my brake side. I talked to a friend who's a mechanic and he said it clutch fluid isn't all that important and that it'll probably work without changing. He suggested that i wait to next time my brake fluid...
