    stuck slide?

    Okay, I just picked up a new to me 1994 Vmax with what I am guessing is a stuck float. The bike is stock, except for Supertrapp slipons and has only 4450 original miles. The oil and plugs were just changed, and the old plugs were a nice light tan color suggesting decent jetting. Once the key...

    Neutral Light Stuck On

    Okay, here's the deal. My neutral light is on, no matter what gear I'm in. The bike will start and run in any gear and the only way I can make the light go off is to put it in gear and put the kickstand down. I've checked the neutral safety switch and it's good. The kickstand switch seems to...
