TC, where is your source of throttle bodies? I have been working with a
Canadian outfit on the eletronics but having a hard time sourcing a
reasonably priced set of throttle bodies? I have even been considering
cannibalizing on old set of 38mm carbs...
cheers, Terry

Hi Don,
If I crash my Vmax, I'll be dead. I won't have to worry about replacing it.
The only time I take my max to its real potential, is at the drag strip in a
controlled environment. As for the dyno, the same dyno operator, with nearly
the same conditions. Even at the track, I tried to keep

Stan,
Thanks for the research info on the pipes I was curious if you
knew the diameter, (off the top of your head), of the size of the
collector on your Kerker do you think this guy is 2 1/2 inch ?? I
was looking at some of the Hindle variants ... and Holeshot says their

Paul, if the bearings rotate freely when you turn them with your finger,
they're fine. If they turn roughly, then replace them. I believe they are
sealed bearings and the best thing to do if they're bad or have a lot of
mileage on them is to replace them. They're not too expensive.
