    18" Wheel Choices

    I'm looking to convert to radial tires and looking for input on choices of 18" wheels we have for the Vmax. I have found very few that carry 18" wheels. I know RMS Sportmax carries a 18" wheel set ($1800 for ft and r) but I was thinking along the lines of a sportbike style wheel which would...

    Radials on stock 15 inch rear wheel

    FYI, I found out via the Yahoo! list that they do have a couple of 15 inch radials available. http://www.bikebandit.com/rear-street-motorcycle-tires/c/a642336a5a328a11a344a351 Keep in mind that the Bridgestone does not have a matching tire for the stock 18 inch front.

    Friend has a Continental Road Warrior (150) on there now. Is this a good choice? What else can I run? Should I stick to 150 size or what is the max size? Thanks!

    OEM Wheel Compatability

    Does anyone know if a front wheel from a 1982 Seca XJ 550 has the same rotor bolt pattern as the Max? If not, any idea how I could check, short of physical inspection? Thanks in advance.

    seized wheel cylinders

    So I've got some brake issues on my '93 Suzuki quad, namely that they don't work. At all. It's got a somewhat unique system of three drums. Since the rear axle is locked full time, there's only one drum on the rear right wheel, which just has a linkage to the foot pedal. That one just needs new...

    Ebay wheel bearings

    LINK Any thoughts? Bad idea? Looks like they are about a third of the cost of new OEM (the kit includes seals). I'm always on the look out for a good deal, but I also don't want to cheap out on my Max!

    Anyone modify speedo drive instead of fork when fitting 17" front wheel?

    I am fitting 17" wheels to my '07. For the front I purchased a 2002 YZF600 17". I know the standard fitting procedure has been to pull approx 6mm from the left front fork tube and then the same amount from the front right spacer. I generally like to only perform mods that do not...
