    I'm 5'6"/buck-fifty .. too small for a Vmax?

    Hola! As stated .... 5 foot 6 inches, 150 pounds. Flattraker/jockey sized. In the mid 1980s I had a Harley FXRS. I traded in my Sportster XR1000 for it ... HUGE mistake. Bike was too big for me. Everything sucked ass. I changed the seat, bars, footpegs. Seems no matter what I did the...

    A couple small monkey bites.

    Got a chance this weekend to add a couple small cosmetic mods, added the small alum blinkers I got from Sean, small LED tail light I got from Motorcyclemods.com and the Extrap Vstacks I got from Mr Pickles. It sure tightened the bike up a little, and I swear the Vstacks added 10 hp.:biglaugh...

    found small amout of gas in air filter box

    Have an 04 Vmax. Was installing the K&N air filter. When I had the stock filter out, I noticed a small, thin layer of gas in the front left of the air box when sitting on bike (so closest to clutch level versus throttle). Is that ok? If not, what could be the cause and is this something I need...

    No, I don't mean to shake yourself into a speed wobble or an accident. But I would like to know what your bike does and if it is stock or modified as far as suspension is concerned. If I do this, the front end continues wobbling at 2 or 3 times per second for a few seconds until the wobble...
