What if we took one apart here in U.S. and then shipped it piece by piece to you . Then you could reassemble there? ...


We're working on a technology to FAX tangible objects.

So far, the cheese pizza trials have been messy.

:pardon:

Well I knew somebody had to be working on that.

Great looking V-max. The exhaust looks awesome and has to sound incredible. I agree the skull mirrors would have to go.

Good luck when you go and look at this one.

GOT IT!!!

YAY! It was about 1.5 hours away. It started snowing just before we left to go look at it. We went anyway - the weather forecast was 0% precipitation, so it didn't last.

The seller came down on his price, but not much. I worked on him for a while, but he wasn't moving. He had the stock mirrors and stock exhaust, so that was good (for inspection purposes). This thing is LOUD with the 4-into-4 exhaust. I love it. But I'm a little concerned because he installed this custom, rather free-flowing exhaust, but he didn't re-jet the carbs. Usually that results in burned valves. Maybe it will be fine. He had maintenance receipts and records. That's very cool.

That is great news Mark,  :yahoo:

Stock parts and maint papers is a plus.

Look at the color of the pipes off the head , blue is bad and gold is good. The v-max is jetted rich from the get go anyway so you should be ok.

Go ride that bike and feel good about it.. Happy day.
