system

Hi, just wondering if someone can tell me if the the lubrication system on an '88 model, is a full flow or a bypass system?

Any one know whether these bikes have a capacitive discharge or inductive discharge ignition system? I'm about to hook up a wideband datalogger, and if its capacitive, I ruin my 800 wideband.

Was lucky enought to find a barely used Over Racing Stainless Steel and Carbon Can system for 8,000 baht ($260) so set about fitting to the old girl, (the mother in law said she would not wear it so had to fit it to the bike instead). After spending 2 hours in the garage with temp in the 40c...

I went out for long ride a few days ago I had stop 2 times to get gas no problems. The 3rd stop I got gas about 2 gallons when I try to start the bike man it turn over about 20 to 25 times before it started back up. I almost thought it was not going to start. When I got back home I let the bike...

hey guys im gona install a stage 7 kit on my bike and gona remove my vboost anyone need the stuff or have a idea of what a fair price for the system i should ask.

2 of my Stator Wires fried together at the regulator connection. Actually the Regulator wires. The Power Wire to the regulator was broken. Ohm'd the Stator and they were all even. AC output voltage was 12.8 volts. Ohm'd the Regulator and saw some differences so I put my new spare regulator in...

Greetings, I have read many of the threads here about overheating but have not seen anything about a gurgling sound. Here is the issue I am having. Finishing the last long ride I took before being deployed, which was about 300 miles at 85 degrees, I noticed a "gurgling" sound when I shut...

Hi folks: Hope everyone is doing okay out there. Here's my question: What is the BEST sealant out there for supplementing a gasket to ensure leak-prevention in the water pump of a cooling system (I'm referring to my 1986 FZX700, whose water pump absolutely refuses to remain leak-free...

I suspect I have a battery problem. Before I replace it (was considering a Panasonic-type SLA), I would like to get some input from you guys. First, the bike has run fine for years on this same battery, but this season, the bike has killed a time or two and would not restart due to low battery...

Ok this is for you hard core guys.... I am on the fence, build my own exhaust, or purchase one already done. The reason for purchasing one would be time. I just want to ride and not have any down time really. I am thinking stainless for exhaust if I build my own. I would love to do something...

Hello all you Max heads. I have a question that some of you guys hopefully have a answer to. Does our bike have a charging system? That keeps the battery charged? I see a lot of guys installing trickle chargers and hooking up once a month, etc. Thanks for the help.

Mockup of Nitrous System 1st I had to come up w/ some type of mount to attach that 2-1/2 lb bottle to. Came up with a peace of aluminum and fitted it to the front cyl. head. Next will be mounting the Nitrous / Fuel Solenoids and Shower Heads. Damn that Mod Monkey, more to come........

Just a general question. I am an Apple guy. I have the iMac, iPhone, iPad and even the iTV so we can watch movies/shows/MLB ect ect on the TV. Its not that I am in love with apple, its simply matter of I love systems that work well together, and if anything apple works well together. Now, both...

I've currently got headers and cobra slip ons, with stock jets(I think) and stock filter. I'm thinking about getting either a UFO 4/1 or 4/2 system. I just love the V8 muscle car noise! My question is: Am I likely to see any significant bhp gains over my current set-up? I no cobras alone are...

My Vgas bike runs fine after I purge the air from high spot in the tubing after the pump. But after a 1 hour ride, my clear fuel filter after my pump and air purge tee is almost empty yet I don't have a fuel leak.:ummm: My first step will be to replace the fuel tubing from the tank to the...

Was contemplating getting one. Any chance someone here has had experience good or bad ? Does the center stand have to come off ?

got a local guy that would love to sell me a vmax and include a NOS set up.... just wondering what a used NOS setup might be worth ? I havnt had a look just yet so I know almost nothing about the bike or the NOS system... just looking for some ball park figures.. thanks

Does anyone make a hose kit for the 1st generation V-Max. I'm thinking if I order them piece by piece from Yamaha it might get a little expensive. I noticed one of the carb boots is cracked also, so I might as well replace all the rubber around the carbs to. This is a 1988 model that hasn't...
