Hi all,
I'll be heading out this week from NYC to New Orleans, with a stop in Atlanta for the Saints Falcons game (Go Saints)
I'm thinking of stopping somewhere between Roanoke, Va and Charlotte, NC for the first night. Was wondering if anyone has any suggestions of a good stopover...
I am looking for suggestions on tank bags that you guys are running. I don't want anything huge, big enough to put some gloves , cell phone, and my Ipod in. Any suggestions would be awesome
Thanks G:worthy:
I ran across my 9 year old daughter in the bar a few days ago...... How stressed can you get when you see this?
Then she smiles and turnes her head and shows you this

Ok...we are coming nto the winter months,and i wont be doing as much riding.I have a basically bone stock 85 v-max,with the exception of drilling out the mufflers.Im wondering,what would be the best bang for the buck mod that i could do to my bike over the winter?I seem to remember hearing about...
Hi Guys:
I just had the shop do some diagnosis on my bike because its failing to charge the battery while riding. I thought it was the regulator and it turns out, the regulator AND the rectifier are bad.
Then they quoted me ... and these are there words, my "first born" and "repeated ass...
I've had my Max for a few months now and already the location of the tach bothers me. I'd like to have something up near the speedo but nothing too big. Any suggestions?
I would like to replace the one piece filter insert on these scoops with two separate inserts inside each opening. I dont feel the single insert I have will look as clean as the scoops will after chroming them.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to, and who might fabricate some filter...
Hi, 2006 V Max. Brake lights not working. The 2 connectors (female, in clear plastic) that connect to the male connectors on the bottom of the brake fluid resavore by the front brake were off. I replaced them. No luck brake lights still out.
I pulled the cover off the tail light and there are...
Filled up with gas and went to reset my gas gauge and the knob to reset it spun freely...the gear inside must be broken. Anyone else ever come across this?
Not sure if I need a whole new speedo or what. Strange as the bike only has 12K on it. If I push on the knob I am able to get the numbers...
I have 18s front and back. I run a 180/55R18 Metzler marathon on the rear and a 110/80R18 Metzler Z6 on the front. As far as I am concerned, I am happy with both tires. I'd like to change the size of my front. Going to a 120/70 seems logical but I'm afraid it will be smaller than the 110/80...
Hi Guys,
Looks like I will be putting new rubber on my VAMX in the near future. I always like to change both tires so that the same brand is on both front and back. I'm looking at either the
Shinko 170-80-15
or
Metzeler ME880 170/80-15
I like the wider tire in the back, I will be putting...
The fuel pump took a dump on my 85 max. I was going to order a new oem until I figured out they get $150+ for one! Anybody have a good suggestions for a replacement that will be reliable and lower cost. I have seen the junk crap at the parts store that last 2 days, so thats not an option...
I am considering getting an older (80's) goldwing and wonder if anyone
knows of a good forum for research. I doubt there's one as good as
this one though. Thanks.
I'm looking for a bike for my wife and it's proving to be somewhat difficult.
She only likes specific types of bikes as far as looks go. They definitely have to be naked and non-fairing.
Just to give you a sample of what she doesn't like
SV650/1000
None of the Ducatis (I know, crazy :))
No...
What I have done so far;
17" wheels front and rear.
120/60-17 Pilot Road 2 - front
180/55-17 Pilot Road 2 - rear
Progressive springs up front with Ricor Intiminators.
Tightened steering head nut.
OK, now the speed wobble is gone, but still have a wobble at speed when I hit a bump/dip...
Anyone have a preferred vendor for Kawasaki parts? I need a signal light for my wife's ZX6R, it had a close encounter with the asphalt. Should get some frame sliders too....
Hi Guys,
I would like to buy a cover for my VMAX, I' sure if I get 10 replies I'll most likely get 8 different suggestions......lol But I would like to get a opinion on what you guys think is the best cover for the money. It won't be used in weather only my garage.
If you have any...
Bikes at about 20k miles, clutch is starting to give me a little grief. If I really slam it in 4th or 5th the engine will over rev, then settle back down, sounds to me like she's starting to slip so I want to get some parts on order before it becomes an acute problem.
Is there a consensus on...
