Welcome to the Classroom. Glad to have you.Nice Max.

Thanks! I see you made upgrade of your max, is the frame stiffness bar I can see on your photo screwed to frame only? I have seen many bars, your looks nice in my opinion - is not so visible, does not hide engine comparing to other I have seen. Do you feel the difference after installation of that?

Yes I Do. These Are John Furbers Braces.. RIP. .
They Make A Big Difference with the Frame Flex when your Getting it. The Tabs are Welded to the Frame and the Bars Bolt on. Highly Recommend! Hit Sean Morley up on here he probly has a Pair. Mine is a 97 also. You have a Good Looking Max there.

Let me Clarify. The Rear tabs are Welded. Then bolt on. The frts Bolt thru My crash bars or Highway pegs what ever your Fancy on Words. Lol

Hello! Nice to meet.

By the way - does anyone know what should be the right screwing torque for brake calippers halfs front/rear to screw them together. I cannot find it in the service man.

 

[Fire-medic]

They don't want you taking them apart so they don't give a torque value.

Domonic The factory manuals say do not loosen. I did that before I found that out. good advice that I got from this forum was to find the size of the bolt and look it up in the bolt torque section of the factory manual, that is a good starting point.

Factory Service manual didn't expect us to be working on the bike 35-40 years later.....
