Thanks!

I have a question about jetting that I can't seem to find the answer for. On a US 49 state model, is the jetting the same from 85-07? This is what I can find on jetting Main Jet 152.5 PAJ1 90 PAJ2 170 Pilot Jet 37.5 Just want to make sure it is the same for all years. I'm trying to put a...

I finished putting all of the bits for the v-boost back on the bike and hooked up the sync tool. Wow. Not even close to being in sync! Sync'd the carbs and I feel I'm getting much closer. The transition from idle to off idle is a lot better. Not perfect but certainly better. I'm feeling like I...

Thanks guys. I think I have all of the pieces to put the vboost on the bike. We shall see.

Well I seem t have the bike running ok everywhere except for the idle. I'm starting to think I might be getting too picky so I made a video of the bike idling with a sync tool attached. The setup is stage 7 needles, 152.5 mains, and v-boost removed. Can you guys take a look at the video and...

I think the correctors are there. I think the next thing I'm going to do is take a video of what I'm experiencing. Idle-ok, cruise-ok, acceleration-ok, transition from idle to anything but idle-sucks!

Well I just pulled the bike out from it's long winter nap and I'm still not satisfied with the tune on this thing. I'm still thinking it goes way lean as soon as you crack open the throttle even the slightest bit. Since everyone seems to be using 90 air adjusters with a stage 7, I'm assuming air...

Thanks Mike. Can someone tell/show me how it's supposed to mount? Thanks

Does the first picture show the stock mounting position for the servo motor? I'm trying to put v-boost back on a bike that had it removed and I'm a Vmax noob :) Sorry for the hijack. Joe

She runs much better with the 90's! Thanks for the suggestion. I just ordered a set of 92.5's to lean it out just a tad. Now that I understand which jet effects what part of the operating range, the fine tuning has begun :)

Making progress. 90's are in, A/F idle mixture screws are around 2.5 out. Started right up and now warming up. I'm going to see how things are before moving to slot 3 on the needles. Thanks for the help tugla, I should have come here first before shelling out almost a grand!

I'm going to swap to 90's now. Just saw this, "you have the k&n filters....will have to make sure you got air correctors in them to run properly also." What are "air correctors"? Is there a picture of them somewhere so I can tell if I have them?

Funny thing is it doesn't pop. Just stumbles really bad. I also thought the 4.5 out was trying to tune around jetting that was too lean. So am I correct in thinking the 100PAJ1 is causing the lean condition just off idle?

Mains are 152.5 so I'm assuming they are Mikuni jets. Is there any way to tell the difference between Mikuni and DJ jets?

Hi All, First some background. Purchased my 06 last year from an original owner who had installed from what I was told, a Stage 7 kit and a 4-1 Kerker. I was never really satisfied with how the bike ran so I dropped it off to be serviced. The shop told me the slides had been drilled and needed...

Rollie, Are there any sound clips of the HMF 4-2? I'm also a fan of the balanced look. Joe

Ugh! I'm actually trying to lose the raspyness! So if the smaller baffle makes the sound even more raspy, I'm going to have to look for a different solution. Oh also, all of the packing is in there. It's also still yellow in color! Is there any can I can purchase that will deepen the sound? Joe

Hi Guys, first post here. Actually, first post in a motorcycle forum. Anyway, I bought a 2006 with 1600 miles on the clock about 2.5 months ago and although I think the bike is terrific, I don't think my neighbors do. The bike has a Kerker 4-1 exhaust with stage 7 jetting. Obviously I love the...

Yeah I asked for the story and the gentleman told me it was purchased in 2006 during a mid life crisis. Driven for one summer and then "put away". I just happened to be in the right place at the right time to scoop it :) Joe

Hi guys, new to the forum and to VMax ownership. I purchased a 2006 with 1600 miles on the clock about a month ago. My only regret is that I didn't purchase one sooner as it seems to be the perfect bike for someone who can't appreciate laying on the tank any longer but still likes a powerful...
