I have to agree with the general consensus here. I was amped up for the release of this bike until I saw the price tag , the weight and the speed limiter . The last of which I'm sure can be fixed . 18k is just ridiculous though I'll bet they don't sell out as quickly as they think they will ...
I went to the dealer yesterday and inquired about ordering this next generation vmax and he said that you can't until probably at least June. He also told me that the bike would have at least 190hp but probably a little over 200. I'm getting one no matter how it handles
I have that same setup and and tried all three jets in the dynojet stage 1 kit and ended up with the 165's . What was your a/f ratio? because mine ran way rich with just the 170's
I may just get the stage 7 kit and yeah what the hell is up with mikuni and dynojet using different numbers for their jets mine are dynojets . After looking at the plugs I am going to try the 165's and check the plugs again . What do you guys think about removing the y tube?
I pulled a couple of plugs and they didn't look like a rich condition . I removed what would be a the tank on another bike or air box cover on a vmax and rode it after removing the y tube .I rode it with the air box hole where the y bube is wide open no "tank" at all .That might account for a...
oh yeah forgot to add I'm running 150 PAJs and was running way lean at 1/8 throttle thats why I changed needle position I haven't adjusted float levels because going down on the mains seemed to help I want to know how far down to go ?? V boost seems to be actuating all the way.
raised the needle jets one position the k&n is clean going from 170s to 160s on the mains gave more low end on the dyno a/f ratio was in the 10s at WOT across the rpm range tried posting my dyno and keep getting bumped out of my sign in on the forum I will try again
:bang head: I am running a k&n a kerker and a dynojet stage 1 . Started with the recommended 170s too rich went down to the smallest mains in the kit 160s still too rich at WOT . it runs great but when I dyno it shows an A/F of like 10 and only makes 107 rwhp has anyone dynoed their bike with...
I raised the needle lowering the clip from 3 to 4 and it felt better I actually was able to adjust the carbs while doing dyno pulls I started at 2 1/2 turns out like it said in the kit and it was almost off the chart lean at 1/8 throttle . I went out in 1/2 turn increments twice to try and get...
I am running a stock '05 vmax with a k&n, filter kerker exhaust and a dynojet stage 1 kit with 160 mains . When the bike is at 1/4 throttle it was running way lean as soon as it was cracked to full throttle it was really rich 11.1 a/f ratio. It put down 108hp 73tq . After that I came home and...
