Hi All,
I am new to the Forum but not so new to life and bikes in general. I have a 1986 Yamaha Venture that totes a Motorvation Formula II sidecar that could use a little extra in the HP category. To that end, a VMax rear gear assembly was installed and does improve the takeoff and excessive shifting problems. I have a set of Vmax heads to install and am not sure what year bike they are from. Is there a way to determine the year or range of years the heads are from by their configuration? I also need a set of Vmax carbs to complete the top end and would like to know what years or range of years will sit on the heads without the Vboost. I would think (hope) that the Venture intake boots would fit the Vmax heads and allow the carbs to be installed in that fashion??
Thanks for any assistance that can be provided,
Les
