    Vertical Stand for Gen II

    This works great and you can use it to transport the bike in a trailer. https://www.condor-lift.com/product/pit-stop-trailer-stop-part-ps-1500/

    For Sale - V Max 2012 - 2977 miles

    Bike looks great, should sell very quickly. How much did they charge you to wrap the bike? Did you bring them the fenders and "tank" plastic or did they do the job without removing them?

    Fuel Mileage

    We have non-ethanol gas here in Colorado but the octane is only 88 I think. Would it still be better than using the higher octane unleaded with ethanol?

    2020 VMAX

    Yamaha is famous for not changing or updating some of their models for years, nobody should be surprised. I've been riding ATV's for years. The Banshee and Raptor models are great examples of no changes for years and years other than color.

    Power Commander 5 and Mileage

    Where you able to pull that restrictor out without taking the whole airbox out? I looked at doing that when I put my K&N filter in but didn't want to take the whole damn thing out to do it.

    Reluctant Starter

    Did you do the power commander yourself or does a shop do it and dyno tune it for you? What was the total cost?

    Reluctant Starter

    Yea I didn't really notice that on mine. What's your opinion on more power from the flash? Not sure I see a dramatic difference if much at all, was hoping for too much maybe.

    Reluctant Starter

    I have a 2015 with the the exact same mods and about 1500 miles. I have had the same experience as you after the flash, it took awhile to start before but now seems to take a spin or 2 longer of the starter to fire up when cold. Once it's warm it's no issue at all. I was contemplating...

    brake pads

    What exact pads are you guys recommending? I'm looking to put new fronts on even though I'm only at about 1400 miles, I'm just not feeling a ton of bite with the stock pads. I'm looking on Motosport.com and there are a bunch of brands and types, some are really expensive. Any suggestions...

    Gen 2 Exhaust

    Here's a link to hear the sound on my bike. 14" Carbon Delkevic's with the de-cat mid pipes. I like it, not super loud at steady throttle when cruising but they growl when getting on it.
