Project

Post by dep24 »

I have an 87 Vmax 540. Put over 400 in new parts including OEM skis. Carb completely rebuilt. Ran like a champ for about 3 miles. Now compression is low. Machanic is fairly certain that it is the crank seals only. My wife put the end to the money supply for this sled. It has new rear axle with new barings and lots more. I have a list of all the work the machanic did prior to the engine quiting.
