I don't see any of the hardware, that would be necessary, on the front of the bike. I would leave it off. The bike looks great without it. Unless you're planning on long touring rides... let the wind blow!

Or... when you think your side stand is down... Not that it's ever happened to me. Nope. Never :rolleyes:

... When the light comes on and there are NO gas stations on the big blue signs, on the Interstate, for 10, 15 miles... My pucker meter was on "full pucker". I pulled off of the interstate and looked-up the closest gas, on my phone. I made it, weaving thru an unfamiliar town, I'm sure on fumes...

The scoops were chromed. Someone already told me they weren't supposed to be that way (from factory). The left scoop has some minor rash due to one of the PO's dropping it or something. I didn't know the brake calipers weren't stock. Will this make the pads different, too? The brake master is...

Bought it in November 2018. Zero issues with it. Oil changes & fork seals have been the only things I've had to do to this fun bike.

Don't beat yourself up... I did the same thing, when I first got mine. The fronts were on and the backs weren't... Oh, MAN... what's wrong with them? Then it donned on me... :rolleyes:😂

I rented a V-Rod, back in '18, and took a nice ride to the dam. Getting stuck in no-go traffic, coming back into LV, was no bueno due to the exhaust running next to my leg. A borrowed V-MAX would be soooo much better.

I like the pegs on them. I try to rest my feet on the top bar, but it's not comfortable. The vintage pegs also look super cool!

Right. I didn't want to play favorites, but I didn't say I would be running to look at that one, either

Not mine, but on the Facebook Marketplace in my area https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/387473098969565 '85 - $2000 - Grants Pass, OR If I had the $, I'd already be on my way to look at her https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/747296566001018 '05 - $4000 - Eugene, OR

Southern Oregon one, for a pretty good price: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/320450325739482/

I'm down in Roseburg. I've had my MAX for almost a year. the only thing I've done was fork seals. And, of course, ride the wheels off of it :D

Turning 50 in a couple of weeks. Picked up my '98 Vmax late last year. It's my 3rd bike. Still have my '99 R6, for the twisties & track days. The max is more comfortable on longer rides and I love the sound.

It took me a while to get my first one, too. Congrats! BTW - I'm in total agreement on the color scheme rocking... black is where it's at!

I knocked the winter crud off of her. She cleans up pretty good :)
