Mine was a vtwin when I got it as well and I'm not sure the guy I got it from knew it.he thought it was fast but I knew better.a couple plugs got her hitting on all four and some carb work kept it that way.glad you like your bike.

I did a slave on my max and couldn't get it pumped back up so I used a trigger style oil can with the flexible spout & a piece of hose a pumped it up from bottom.worked great!had I knew of this forum then I could have saved hours of stress.yes you can shoot some out the master cylinder.when I...

I had a Avon venom on my first max and it wouldn't spin,or it would spin about 3ft then hook very hard.the max I have now has a bridgestone if I remember correctly and it will spin 9 times outta 10.I rolled thru a puddle with Avon about 5-10mph to get tire wet and hit it,4' spin then hooked so...

I replaced my signals for smaller ones and now have hyper flash.been there,fixed that before.flasher for my bike is $30+,my other bikes were about $10. I can get resistors for $7. But don't want to go that route.my question is are there cheaper flashers for the max(led style)or can it be...

So I rode to work today,rode a lot harder on the way home.after parking I noticed some oil on left cases & here & there.soon looking around I found the leak,my crankcase breather.its not on the airbox but has the hose that goes there(unhooked from airbox).so oil made it all the way up and out of...
