#0647-- Wronghack, Stock, Runner
Ive had it less than a year, 2nd owner, approx. 14000mi. Definitely got to get that number way up this season.
 
Well looks like its time to update the '85 Vmax registry again. we have five more to add to the "Originals" list welcome to the most exclusive Vmax group there is genlemen !

so far there are 44 of us, its kinda interesting that the first 1000 bikes appear to have had a better survival rate than those that follow...

Great to see first time posters putting up their info. Welcome to you all and you have no excuse to be a stranger now!
 
Welcome to new members...........

Thanks for posting photos of your "original " 85's.

I've done a few modifications on my 05 & 07 models, but I think if I was lucky enough to own an 85 I'd have to leave it purely" classic" stock.

To each his own of course..........as long as it's a Max...........it's all good!

I just got my first Vmax. It's an 85 cause that was the first year they were made and the number is 3567 with 29k miles. PO told me he was the third owner, and it had sat at a motorcycle dealer for 3 years. He said there were new plug, clutch and tires, and also it may have a stage 1 kit because of the K&N filter and supertrapp 4:1 exhaust on it. No center stand, and may have been repainted. But aside from that it's stock and except for 2nd gear popping into neutral, which the PO told me about, it is very clean.
 
Very Cool, Welcome to the best Forum on the Net....:biglaugh:

Great that You Know some of your bike's history...
 
Mines an 86 with an 85 engine,which means nothing but I remember the manufacturing date on the frame is october 1985,what are the dates on the early 85's? Just out of curiousity.also is tthere a place on the engine case that has a number that might tell me the age of the engine?
 
Wish I had a crystal ball to see if stock 85's will be worth more. I'm tempted to tear my 3 down and build one with all my best parts.
 
Only just been bothered to go check my VIN, kept meaning to....

Anyway, make room for number #0493 !
