Well...

[Jayhawk]

There goes my mod money for the '09. Couldn't resist buying this today. An '02 with only 4,000 miles. Needs a few cosmetic things, but should be fun to do some wrenching on. Hope to get it home today, as the bike is only a couple miles from my house.

Finally, something loud enough to piss off my Harley riding neighbor on Sunday mornings. :biglaugh:

 

[gamorg02]

nvm they are slip ons

 

[Jayhawk]

Sent you a PM.

Yeah, that's kinda what I was thinking...though he's nowhere ready to ride a Max (unsupervised). Adam's about to wet his pants, though. He went with me a couple weeks ago to look at it. :biglaugh:

I don't know what sort of mechanical "gotcha's" this thing has, but it's going to be fun playing with it. It's got the original tires on it (now eight years old), and it's going to need a new scoop, or at least both of them chromed due to some brake fluid spillage on one of them.

Good for you Tom, there's a hell of a 'dad n' lad' project!! :clapping:

Course Adam prolly won't get any sleep for the next 6 months, he'll be out sittin' on the '02 making Kerker noises...Bbrruuuummmm, bbrruuummm!!

 

[naughtyG]

Nice score, bike looks pretty much flawless!

 

[KJShover]

nvm they are slip ons

They don't look like slip ons.

 

[Jayhawk]

It's a 4-1...how can that be a slip on?

Great find, congratulations!!

 

[Jayhawk]

Great find, congratulations!!

Thanks. Looking forward to getting it home here in a couple of hours. (Fingers crossed.)

 

[gamorg02]

no it is a 4-1. thought it was a slip on b/c how shiny the headers were and the collector before the muffler looked liek the oem setup.

 

[kaboom]

Congrats!!!!!!!

You lucky devil......you have BOTH:worthy:


I am very jealous:damn angry:

Just got home from the shakedown cruise. Love it! The sound from the Kerker is incredible. Can't find a functional thing wrong with the bike (yet). Feels a little soft off the bottom, but I'm not sure if that's typical with the Kerker pipe (loss of a bit of low end). After about 3k, runs like a beast.

Bought a fresh tank of gas, and added a good dose of Seafoam, and plan to switch to Mobil 1 tomorrow. Hopefully, I'll get m-cman to give it a ride and see what he thinks, then get down to checking brakes, hoses and everything electrical I can find to look over.

Love this bike...my neighbors won't, however. unk:

what jet kit is on it?

where has m-cman been? haven't seen him in a while.

No idea on the jet kit. :confused2:

m-cman is around, I rode with him on Saturday. He's had some Internet access issues, lately. But, I think he's got them solved now.

 

[dannymax]

An '02 with only 4K would indicate a lot of garage time Tom, good chance your low end droop is caused by gummie idle circuits, hopefully the seafoam will do it. You could also try BG44K, put 1/3 can in each of the next 3 tankfulls. The stuff works real well!

 

[ghostntheshell]

Do the jet-kits change the sound? Not sure I am interpreting that correctly.
