wires

Does anyone see a problem with routing the throttle and clutch cables along with the wiring for switches BEHIND the forks. Here's how I am set up now (bike is totally tore down but you get the point) Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2

I am thinking of adding 8mm ignition wires to my max and wondering if its worth the time and money?.Thanks .

I want to replace my wires till I get my cops. I found some orange Taylor 8.2mm wires at jegs that are a universal fit motorcycle wire. Has anyone used them can I use them is there a specific wire I need? Thanks

I am planning to replace my spark plug wires. Thinking about buying OEM or maybe get a set like the Nology Hot Wires. Somebody is selling me a set of used Nology wires for the price of the new OEM (about $60 I think). A new set of Nology hot wires goes for $125 or so. Basically, I need...

Are these easy to put on .I am thinking of replacing mine with colored ones .Where are the other two coils located aside from the ones under the fake tank?.

gonna get a new set of plug wires. see them for around $36 on ebay. any thoughts on where else or what brand? :ummm:

Has anyone tried/ compared this to other... Not sure if they are really worth the extra $$$.....:ummm:

I'm getting readings from 8.66k ohms to 9.25k ohms for the plug wires. Any one know what's acceptable? I've read aprox. 1000 ohms per foot and these are about a foot. Original 7 year old wires I believe and I have some new ones on order. Thanks,Mike

Hi guys need to know where to get a set of GOOD plug wires?? I bought a set from someone on here that were supposed to be a good that were brand new and they are terrible. The warmer the bike gets the worse they leak. You can hear and see them arching out above the plug they are arching out on...

Howdy guys, I've got a (hopefully) simple question for you all. Can anyone identify these wires/plugs? http://imgur.com/a/MRBWf I was having some battery issues yesterday and ended up having to replace the battery as it was completely dead and wouldn't take a charge. Ended up getting stranded...

Hi guys, Great forum! Could someone please tell me how many wires each my front and turn signals should have? The bike came with mismatched, bitched up sportster minilights. I'm a little cofused as to what would work best. Thanks very much Dave

Question for you guys, i have a set of nology wires on my max and i just saw on rocky mountain sportmaxes site, that when you use them you need bigger pilot jets , is this true, the bike has always run what i think is lean , idle srews are 3.75 out and still a bit lean, should i put larger...

Been having a problem with charging so I thought I would replace the rectifier.Upon removal I found that the connector for the three white wires coming from the stator was a melted lump.I had to pretty much cut it apart to get the wires apart.My question is this:How do you know what white wire...

FYI summit racing 8mm plug wires for a v8 work fine to replace the stock wires. About 40 bucks for 8 wires. So good deal and cheaper then anything out there. All you have to do is cut them to length of the old ones. A little di-electric grease is needed to get the 8mm wires to go into the...

There's a guy on ebay selling these wires with strobe caps . No resisters in the caps do you need the resisters in the cap or is the guy full of crap, have you used these wires , any problems

Hi, my first submission so greetings all, but a question as well. is there a cheaper non OEM source for plug wires (preferably locally in South Africa). If I do find wires and caps that fit and look ok visually, could their specs. be incorrect? i.e. ohms,etc. What must I be looking for...

This is for the first generation V Max (prior to 2008?). Advanced Auto currently stocks the NGK DPR8EA-9 plugs for $1.99 ea. Thats what my 2001 VMax required. NAPA had the 7mm metal core plug wire in bulk for 39 cents a foot. Roughly $10 total! For the novice (like me!), the rubber/plastic...

I found these this morning behind the plastic guard next to the key ignition. The one on the left is a black and red wire and the one to the right is just red. I don't know where they plug into or if they are necessary. The bike runs like a top without them on but anyone know what they're for?

I am going to do the COPs mod but want to use the stock coil connectors instead of individual added-on connectors. Anyone have a bad set of coils or the 4 connectors? Don't need the coils, just the connectors and the wiring to the coil. I know this is a long shot, but if you have these items...

Ok, time to ask a couple questions.... I've never changed plug wires before and although it's a simple task I do have a couple questions. My motive for changing the wires is to see if it helps with the stumble I experience when the bike is hot and @ idle or low RPM (under 2K) Coils, caps and...
