For a mere $3500 more HD will put a playing card and clothes pin on it so it still sounds like the big twin.

Sorry I'm late, hope all went well and Dad is recovering. Prayers sent for that, family and care givers.

Still in our thoughts and Prayers.

Have a GREEEAAATTT DAY young Brother.

Very sad news. Praying for ya, family and Dad.

Do we have a list that shows all parts that interchange? That way i could look at list and see what fits i.e. look up model (mkII 1990) brake calipers r1 to yr, r6 to yr, fz1, fz6, road star to 05 etc. If we don't we should have. Especially since people are getting old and taking their knowledge with them when they leave. This thread is two parts. 2nd, can I use a genII flywheel and stator on a 90 and newer mkII? I know I need 76th idler gear from genII to go with sprag clutch but most concerned with timing. Thanks

Keep fighting Bob; We're all pulling for ya! Praying for Bob, Becky and caregivers.

Praying that Bob makes a full recovery and ease his discomfort and those close to Bob while making that recovery.

Hey Brother Bob; I'm praying that your care providers hands are blessed with healing and that your full recovery begins today. Still praying for ya Brother.

With vmax top end minus vboost and stock venture ignition box engine revs freely to 10k, stock exhaust. PCW has built many large displacement engines(large heavier pistons)and states stock rods are good to 180hp. A good exhaust system is paramount to the next step in performance 120hp to 140+. Its the whole package and it's there if you want it. All from old mid eighties readily available parts. This isn't something new. Its been done thousands of times. I just want to apply it to my sofa.

Sure glad ya found it. WOW glad he wasn't fixing my plane.

I was on a HD forum (vrod)and they were talking about what could beat what. There were two references to yamaha,s. One was why brag about beating HD,s it will never be a vmax. And the second was I flew by him so fast he thought I was on a max. But the best was a guy giving em flack about the entire thread was like lawn mower racing. You may have the fastest in the world but it's STILL A LAWN MOWER. ROF LOL. I,'ve never been interested in alot of bikes because they don't excite me, or do what I like to do. People always mod their bikes to improve them personally. That's what I'm doing to "the machine". As Casey said "kinda" One order of humble pie after a Big Old can of woop ass. Quarter mile time represent alot of stop and go riding and are most easily obtained for comparison.

Is it just me or has there been more accidents this year? Seems like alot of these posts lately. Prayers for all affect ed.

Ok I just did the math and it looks like 150hp will get me into low elevens. Around 6lbs/hp. So I only need about 30 more. Vboost, stage7 and a pipe and I'm there.

Maybe we can put a couple questions to rest once and for all. #1 What model is fastest? #2 what color is it? Without Tweetybird Red may be the winner, cause I'm certain Tweety would break elevens. We will probably need the senior members for this. I couldn't find one venture running the quarter on you tube.

Ok all can play gen1 and 2,s. And of course the newest models. I will be missing Dingy for this thread. By fastest I'm going to use quarter mile times as the std since they are listed for almost all bikes. I'm wanting to break eleven with the "machine"(88 mkII). Anyone know of any running those times? If you run eleven that pretty much takes all HD,s out of mix, even vrods. However that is average for stock vmax. Doable? NA no nitrous.

To bring ya up to date the machine put it on him again just as bad. So the street glide 96 and cams etc wasn't enough. Fwd couple years I layed down a bandit and spent winter growing skin. I didn't plan on quitting riding, it just happened that way. The machine got parked because of blown oring and has been settings in swamp ever since. While @hospital visiting friend he reminded me of those days and that it was over. Saw his 2010 110 stage 3 or 4 or something, it's beautiful and sounds almost vmax ish (big cam idle). So I'm digging old mkII out and started ordering parts. I'm going to do my best to replicate previous outcomes.

Thanks for the reply RD; Dano,s mod is just too much money for me. I know the people that purchased them are happy. $67 is alot better to me.

Has anyone used the heavy duty (6 instead of 3) starter clutch on eBay for $50 to $67? Thanks.

I've done searches and can't find it. I want to update a 89 xvz1300 to 96 thru 2013 xvz13 one way clutch. Can i just get a 96 or newer flywheel and starter clutch? Would balance and ignition be compatible? Thanks.

Welcome X; bike looks familiar. Get it in Ionia? Nice scoot brother.

Hey tippy. Tell the old coot happy birthday from melody and myself.

Was guy that got your Max named Damon? Was getting few. Got first mess of gills with fly rod. Fun fun fun.

greetings brother Puc; not into those new fang led bikes. Don't have anything on road yet. Just got a back ordered clutch switch from ronayers. Looks a lot like a brake switch. They r good people. I like dealing with em. Paying return shipn and send rite one. No restock fee. Been steal head fishing n enjoying spring. Hope all is well. Riding your Max?

Thanks Jeff, dont think I want to deal with them from what I, ve read. By the way, Jeff u da man.
