Does anyone change this seal without replacing the stuff on the other side of it (oil seal , bearing). I can't remember if it can be removed without removing the bearing and oil seal first.

How do you remove water jacket joint? I do have a leak in there.I did removed pin,but can not pull it out. Thank you.

Is it considered 1/8 or 3/8 th's ? What tread # ? TIA...

Got back from a short ride yesterday and noticed a small drip of green antifreeze coming out of a small hold under the water pump. I understand in most cars this is a drain hole indicator which means the water pump bearing are starting to wear out causing the seal to leak. This bike only has a...

As I start to dream of spring, I remember last fall my water pump on my 2004 vmax was quite noisy on start up, (right side squeek) and the bike would slowly heat up to a point that was higher than before. In my falltime laziness I didn't bother to change it, or even order parts. My question...

Here is another option to getting your bike/ parts coated with custom designs. Looks like it would be pretty durable as well. They have done some Gen2 parts as well, nice skull print!:punk: http://www.atlantahydroimaging.com/

Anyone have one ? Either electrical or mechanical . My factory guage doesn't work and I was thinking about installing one in the pod along with another guage ( possibly a voltmeter or oil pressure ) or just a digital temp guage from Shindy...

This thing is being an absolute BITCH coming out. Any suggestions. It is already destroyed. The bearing is out and the seal underneath is out. Just cant get the housing out. :bang head::bang head::bang head:

k, time to bring out my stupid.... Will a water pump from an '88 fit my '02? If not, what year parts is my starting point?

I need a the water pump cover. It seems to be in two pieces with 5 bolts. Dealer wants me to order the whole water pump assembly ! Does anyone know where I can order just the cover? original black or brushed alloy?

Ok, so i just attempted to flush my coolant system over the weekend with the vinigar and water dooche, that I read about on the forum, I hope it helps my heating problem - Do you reccommend using watter wetter to help? this bke always runs hotttttt, no matter what -- this bike is a 1988, and has...

Does anyone know? item PC1030 here (in black): http://www.wildbros.com/watercovers.html its already black but could use a re-coating. Will the glass/adhesive stand up to the process?

While removing the heads from my '85 max motor, I ended up breaking the crossover joint/sleeve whatever it's called. The little tabs that you're supposed to pull on to remove it broke off very easily. Actually kinda crumbled. It looks like new ones are about $15/ea from the stealership...

Does anybody know the torque for the water pump cover (five) bolts)? i came home and had a flood of coolant all over the garage floor and it looks like its coming from the lower bolt on the case cover. It ruined the paint on the floor, thats some nasty stuff. I removed the cover, rest of...

So how many years will a water hose last on a V-Max? Any suggested intervals for replacing them? I know, one should be safe rather than sorry, and that's why I'm asking the question. When should I change them? I have an '01 Max with 23,000 miles on it. It appears that some of the hoses are...

For whatever reason my water pump started leaking from the weep hole. So I replaced the complete assembly with a new one from Bikebandit,com. Here's the issue I get everything put back together, start her up and while checking for leaks I see theat my oil is contaminated (milky):bang head:, I...

So I have this vibration noise around 3000 rpm's when accellerating and between 3000 and 2500 when decellerating. I traced it down to what I think it may be. The water pump cover. In the picture, something seems to have happened to 16, 15, and 14, because number 17 is loose on one side of it...
