Looking to upgrade my 98, as the slave keeps leaking. Questions for the forum: What parts/gasket needed? I searched the forum and read of a gasket needed and haven't found one I am sure will work, part number? Can anyone recommend a vendor who can provide a complete kit? Thanks for...

I"ve been scouring Ebay and called a local place that usually has quality stuff, nobody can come up with a USB port that is not Chinese made. On Ebay I see terms like "US seller, ships from US" or "unbranded" which all mean made in China, I would opt not to trust a seller engaging in this...

I've been searching this for an hour unsuccessfully. I need one for my 04 and can't locate a vendor. Could someone post a link? I tried Partzila and got frustrated with their website. Thanks. Jack

Hello everyone, I haven't rebuilt the carbs on my 85 for ... I'm guessing 8 years. Bike has been so good to me I haven't had to do much of anything. However, it's now showing signs of fuel varnish as I haven't been able to ride it enough. Rather than the shotgun fix, I figured I'd tear...

Powersports nation is selling gently used units fot $39.95 with free shipping. Genuine Shindengen regulators. One has been in my '85 all season, and works great. Also go to Ebay, search 'Shindengen Connectors'.you can get the connectors for the regulator for $10.00! This is a no brainer at...

Hi all: I hope everyone is doing okay and staying safe. Question for you: I just installed a Nissin radial clutch master cylinder on my Max, but I hate the stock lever....too long and "clunky." I'm hoping to find a company that sells aftermarket levers for Nissin hydraulic radial...

I've been riding on Dunlops since I've owned my Max. I always read here that the ride quality is noticeably different using Metzlers. Is that true and what is the best source for these tires? I want stock sized replacements. Thank you

I want to find some rearsets to get my feet where they need to be for the most comfort. On the stock bike, if I have the tips of my toes resting on the pegs, my legs and hips feel like they are in the most natural riding position for me, but obviously, my feet ain't very secure that way...

I would like to get new levers all around. Topside, I would love to find a wide style clutch lever. The stock clutch is a bit heavy, and I was thinking a wider lever might be more comfortable. (At least until Kuryakin comes out with Zombie levers for the Max, then who cares about comfort after...

Oh and one more thing... I have used M R Cycles as a supplier of OEM parts and they are fairly competative. Anyone have suggestions for good OEM Parts Sources? Thanks, Z

My carb guy is having a tough time with my 85 carbs, he emailed me today and said he's going to need the following: 22V-14968-00 22U-14968-00 Each of those is a stock oem number for "jet block plugs that do not come with the kits". Anybody know where I can order these, or have any for...

I just bought a pack of 25, 10mm copper crush washers from McMaster Carr. Cost was $7.61 + $4.39 shipping, total of $12.00. McMaster P/N is 97725A200 for 25. If you are going to do brake work and remove the lines, these should be replaced. The items I received looked identical to what is...

Hi, my first submission so greetings all, but a question as well. is there a cheaper non OEM source for plug wires (preferably locally in South Africa). If I do find wires and caps that fit and look ok visually, could their specs. be incorrect? i.e. ohms,etc. What must I be looking for...

I looking for a good source for parts for my '98 GMC Sierra 1500. It has a 5.7L motor, 4wd and has 125k miles on the odometer. The problem is that my R front CV Joints are making some noise and needs to fixed. It doesn't look like too bad of a job to replace unless the bolts are rusted on...

It has been stated in other threads (by sean) that the 6 pot calipers from the early 90's yzf750r are a direct bolt on for our '93+ Vmax's, it was also stated that these calipers are very hard to come by as the yzf750r is a realatively rare bike. This is true ,and when I have found them people...

After some mild internet surfing found this site that sells the R1 R/R for a decent price. http://www.regulatorrectifier.com/catalog/1999-2001-Yamaha-YZFR1N-YZF-R1-N-Regulator-Rectifier

Hi all: Any of you know of the best place to buy a new feeler gauge set for checking valve clearances? I'm in a pickle because I'm checking clearances on my 1986 FZX700. It's an inline 4, and its got 5 valves per cylinder! (That's right, it's a 20 valve engine!) The middle valve of each...

Hi folks: I'm in a bit of a quandary here... I'm currently attempting to disembowel/rebuild the USD shocks from a 1994 Yamaha YZF750, and the service manual states a lot of tools necessary to do this ("Rod Puller" part #90890-01437 and "Adapter" part #90890-01436 are examples.) I've...
