today

I was riding home from work this morning and got to a red light and the bike cut off. Reached up and cranked it back up but not easy. got about a mile down the road with the bike spittin and sputterin and no tach reading then it just quit. I pulled over and scratched my head and contemplated...

went too fast and got a wobble. i usually dont get high speed wobbles so im thinking its my front tire. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYQ1d0EZJu8 edit: im only wearing a helmet to hold the camera muahahahahhaa. this is actually how coprunner rides all the time...

Took my wife out today, first time with a passenger on the max. she weighs all of 120 lbs, but man did it make a difference in braking. I really had to grab a handful.

It really sucks to know something you are waiting for from UPS and is on the truck at 7AM and you don't get it until 6:30 PM, but at least I got it........lol For anyone having carb problems like I did and the problem is due to a blocked pilot jet this what a blocked pilot jet looks like. I...

and i must say when she left i had a huge grin on my face from ear to ear :) only draw back is the collector for the header is bent but im pretty sure i can fix that... heres a teaser picture though. hopefully i can get my old exhaust off this weekend

Riding comes tomorrow, but today I took the family shooting at Bass Pro, here in Grapevine. My daughter and son are in the video, and I'm the aging, fat, shaky guy that appears. Hope my bald spot doesn't blind you. :biglaugh: First time for my daughter shooting pistols, and 2nd or 3rd for my...

well i must tell you guys today was a lucky day for me.I left work hopped on my vmax and took the off ramp on to the trans canada highway that passes through our city and some guy changed lanes and did not see me in his blind spot and hit me sending me flying off my bike at 50 km/hr and...

the guy is asking me a ton of questions and weve talked for an hour and my mouth is getting a little dry and he asks me "do you like water?" obviously hes getting me a drink right?.... just to be safe i pretended i didnt hear him, i was like come again? and hes like can you swim? ive got a...

just bought the bike about two weeks ago. has some performance upgrades and i put lowered rear shocks so i can touch the ground since i am 5'4". Finally feeling the bike out and was riding today and hit the v-boost for the first time. that is SICK! at first i was like whet the heck, then i...

Did the customs tail light from http://www.motorcyclemods.com/ (vmax specific) today. Looks very nice! The hardware is awesome. The light is mounted to a mirror finish plate. Bright LED. I'll post some pics soon!

After 19 years I sold my 85 Vmax today, I kind of hated to see it go. Sold it in less then one week on CL, the guy who bought it fell in love with it at first sight. He drove up from Illinois and put asking price cash in my hand, test drove it down the street then loaded it in his trailer. He...

Went home for lunch, and my Marks pipes came!! If the fit and sound is half as impressive as the finish and quality of these pipes, it looks like I am in for a real treat! Can't wait to put them on this weekend and fire it up!:punk:

so i rode with my friend today, and we both filled up at a gas station and reset our tripmeters. we both rode an equal distance side by side and parked side by side. my tripmeter read 48.4 his? 55.1 he has a honda shadow. am i off? is he off? are we both off?

Nothin too special.Rolled up to the stop light down the street from my house and stopped behind two cars.The light turned green and POOF! A tiny kitten flops to the ground from out from under the car in front of me and begins crying.I did what I felt i should...I assumed it got hit by a...

Got my new Avon Venom put on, its a 170/80-15. Have not had a chance to get it out yet, still pretty crappy out for me.

And it felt dam good!

Well, I was a little over half way through my 2 hour commute this morning when the old Explorer hit some ice and went for a quick spin backwards into the ditch, then it got tired and wanted to lay on it's side for a while. I got a tow-truck there to wake her back up and got her set back on her...

Today at 3pm Manila time, I experienced my worst time with my vmax. Riding peacefully on a 4 lanes road, I got cut by a 125cc who did not see me. I did brake strong (maybe too strong) to avoid the guy and the car on my left but bad luck the bike lost grip from the front and started to slide...

The drummer in the group Avenge 7 fold died,Sullivan was only 28 yrs old. R.I.P

It belongs to the guy I bought Max from. It's a trike, the one with the Sting Ray rear. It has the 350 engine, big cam, roller rockers, 700 R-4 tranny and 3.54 gears. Claims about 400 hp but no dyno proof. Rolled on from 70 mph to 100 (took about 100 yards) and Max pulled away:clapping: by about...
