ithink in the end you are right.i put 150,00 miles on my 89 escort and used walmart oil and filters from day one.gave it to my niece and she drove it another 25,000.never an engine problem and never used oil.changed oil and filter every 2000mi.good oil and filters in my scoots just buys me piece of mind.bill

i think the problem with the fram was the end cap is made out of paper instead of metal and it came apart and could clog the oil galleries.scarry.

i think you are 100% right on.the v-max will be the test platform for the motor and i would look for a really futuristic look to satify the up coming generations.every one laughs at the new victory, but look for them to set the standard for the future look.times change and so do motorcycles.i think yamaha sells all the existing royal stars they need to. the star line of motorcycles is the best marketing move i have ever seen.they caught everyone else with their pants down.i'm a very conservative person ,but when it comes to technology i'm chompin at the bit for new innovations.i love new stuff.

rear brakes on bikes are dangerous.no matter how good a rider you may think you are in a life or death situation you will lock up the rear wheel.out of panic, if the brakes are to sensitive.here is a bit of information.sport bikes have almost no rear braking power.the rear brake is for trail braking only in curves.even the pro riders have rear brake control problems.alot of the moto gp riders get out of the habit of using the rear brake at all except for trail braking in curves.my r-6 and zx 14 have next to no rear brakes at all.you could not begin to stop with them.90% of your stopping power is with the front brakes,because of the weight transfer to the front wheel under hard braking.
