    2000 vmax carbon fiber for sale in Central Texas

    Well I am selling my Max. I bought it used in 2006 for 7k. It has under 16,000 miles on the odometer. If you search my post you will see I have had my share of issues but took care of them. Fixed the starter clutch 3 times. Replaced the clutch pack once. Just put a new battery last month...

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    Well I had a fork seal leaks, not bad but still. I used that seal leak blade tool and it worked. Is it possible to add some fork fluid "top off" without breaking the forks down and replacing all fluid? Seals seem fine now. How would one top off??

    Yet Another Starter Clutch Question

    I realize this is a old thread: I had to replace my starter clutch due to bag of rocks crap. It looked fine. I replaced it anyway and found a hairline crack in it. Undetectable but was compromised.

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    Well I noticed my vboost hasn't been working for weeks. NO BOOST and no whurring noise. Today I took off the left scoop and looked at all connections,they were all mint clean. I opened the module and say nothing amiss. I tapped the box a bit with my screw driver and put everything back...

    No Spark, where to look first?

    I once pinched my coil wire that runs under the starter cover when replacing starter clutch . It was a bitch to trace down. No spark until I retaced my steps and found the wire was comprised.

    What did you do to your Vmax today? Part 2

    Attempted a blast up to town for errands......ended up farting out not even a mile down the road and limped home. ARRAARRGGHHHH!! I put fresh gas and played with the idle air screws and kept at it but something was bogging the max down. I put it away thinking to do a peashooter but took it...

    Heavy Duty Starter Clutch

    Well to follow-up: I got back into the Stater clutch and did not find any damage to the starter clutch. But I did notice the 3 large allens seemed to be slightly buggered on the end threads. So It may have been slipping. Rather than take any chances I replace the whole starter clutch with...

    Heavy Duty Starter Clutch

    Well I do appreciate all responses. And am going to unzip this bike today and have a looky-lou. I pray I do not encounter any buggered up gears or such. I am having Yamaha cut me a gasket today as well. I will report my findings. It does make sense the more torque that sucker spins the...

    Heavy Duty Starter Clutch

    Hello, I did replace the referenced parts. But I did not use a gasket. I used red permatex. The last time I replaced my starter clutch I sheared off my crank woodruff key and I did not use a gasket then. Maybe that is my problem. I may be getting a bind. I am going to have to get back...
