I will pass on opening the V-Boost permanently, that is a sure way to kill low end power. I just want to know about exhaust. Off to check out Hindle

4 into 1 is mandatory for me as I much prefer the note on almost all bikes. After hearing this Vmax with a Kerker 4 into 1 I fell in love with the way that exhaust sounds. However, the cheapest I have found a full Kerker system is a little north of $1200.00 and you have to cut the center...

I think the husband tried to put a battery in it at some point. The front of the seat wasnt clipped under the bracket and it only had 1 bolt holding it on. I got the windshield and bags off of it and quickly snapped a couple pics as it was just starting to rain and I wanted to get it inside.

Since this is my first post, hello! I usually am a lurker and mainly just read, but since I may be pulling the trigger on a 1st Gen I wanted to ask a couple questions. Since I first saw one in the late 1980s as a teen I have wanted a V-max. The sound of the V4 nearing redline was something I...
