    Kerker Slip-On's?

    You loose the center stand with the Cobras too. I drilled out the stock baffles on my stock system to get a more v-8 rumble. I love how the stock system looks.

    What other bikes have you raced against and won?

    My '93 is bone stock save for needle shims & a T-Boost. I beat: A M109, Triumph Farm Tractor Rocket III, A bunch of Harleys, Katana 1000. I recently laid waste to a 600hp EVO too. These were rolling start races to about 125mph or so.

    Steering Damper

    I would make sure the steering head bearings are adjusted properly & drop the forks 1" into the triple trees before adding a damper. Try the stuff you can do for free first.

    Doin' the Shimmy Shimmy Shake

    I dropped the forks 1" into the triple trees & it cleaned up nicely

    Has your VMAX ever hurt you?

    The seat has hurt my ass. Hard acceleration kills my back. It hurts so good though

    85 Max - pre purchase - what to look out for?

    I own a '85 & a '93. Owned em since new. My '85 had a recall for the trans wich had problems with 3rd gear. Other than that, it has been dead reliable. It has 20k miles & is in showroom condition. In '93 the Max got bigger brakes & larger fork tubes. Past 88 I think the ignition is solid state...

    Buying a Max- Could use some advice

    I would look for clean unmoddified bike with low miles. Modded bikes are usually ridden hard & put up wet.

    What did you do to your Vmax today?

    I rode my '93 for the first time in 2yrs today. The battery died & left me stranded. I ordered another Panasonic LCX1220P for it. The first one lasted 6yrs.
