    How does the Vboost servo work?

    Anyone familiar with how the vboost servo works? Does it wait till a certain voltage to activate; if so what voltage is it? I have a voltmeter and will be digging into it but I am not the strongest on electoral matters and it never hurts to ask for help. I've decided to rig up some 'flapper...

    Why does only the RES function work?

    Hi folks: Hope you're all doing o.k. and staying warm. I have a question for you: Why would ONLY my "RES" switch be working to activate the fuel pump? The "ON" side of the switch in the right handlebar-mounted unit is not triggering the fuel pump. (Keep in mind, I do have a full tank of...

    A Work of Art...

    My back hurts just trying to imagine actually riding on this thing, but sometimes I'm amazed with the vision of these builders. Sure, built more to look at than to ride... but it sure is nice to look at! http://www.pipeburn.com/home/2012/9/20/evolutions-72-harley-ironhead-sporty-no-22.html

    Little accident at work today.

    Not me, but one of the truck drivers hauling blacktop for us. Were milling and paving the thruway (90) between dunkirk and westfield ( for you local guys). Were averaging around 2 and a half miles a day, so there's quite a push for the black top and milling trucks to hurry. This morning one of...

    Why dyna beads didn't work...

    I recently had the tires changed on my Z, both were 17" wheels with a 120 front and 190 rear. When I got the bike it had new tires and regular stick on lead weights for balance. After a few washings, some of the stick on weights fell off and the bike developed a noticeable "hop" at speeds much...

    When you work on your bike how do you plan it?

    Well I had to replace rear brake pads ( still doing that ), fork seals, and the rear tire. So...... I decided I would powder coat a few things. Which turned into a day and a half of pulling my bike apart, forks, triples, risers, headlight covers, brackets, pegs, bolts, rear set brackets, stator...

    Looking for a reputable shop in NY to work on my Vmax?

    I'm looking to do some upgrades/dyno tuning etc... I'd rather not take my bike to a random local Yamaha dealer, so maybe someone here can help. Does anyone know of a reputable dealer/shop on or near Long Island ? Or in the Tri-State area within an hour or so from Nassau. Thanks
