TOPIC: Couple of things.......

Couple of things....... 1 year 23 hours ago #1

Here are some photos of a couple of things I did this week on the VMax.

I have the Star Jeff Palhegyi billet covers on the Max. They are black anodized, and turned purple after one year. Yamaha replaced them and guess what? The new ones turned purple in one year. What a surprise! LOL So I finally got the clutch and stator covers powder coated. A lot of labor involved because they had to be masked to media blast, then cleaned and masked again for powder coating. I'm very happy with the results.

Purple cover.

Powder coated cover.

I also turned down the stock bar ends to accommodate my new bar end mirrors. Excuse the crappy photo. I'll take better photos when the bike is assembled and clean.
