Hi mate. Just joined the forum looking for answers about my shifter segment. I've read the thread, but can't find an explanation of what causes the old design tabs to bend? Any ideas? Thanks

Hi I am new to the site, just bought a 1985 VMAX and hoping you could give me a little advice, love the bike but not the wheels do you know if any of the later wheels 1990 onwards will fit ?
Thanks Dave

Hi Sean, regarding the deal with hooking up a Venture's gear indicator to a Vmax.......... well I did that today. So easy to do but I don't have it wired yet.
I was reading through some old posts here about the gear indicator and you mentioned you can get the mating electrical clip so it all looks stock. Can you still get those? I'd like one when I go to wire this up with my LED's.
Thanks,
Vinnie

Sean, do you have set of head gaskets vmax 2007 for sale? And rubber washers.

Sean, I sent you a email today and it came back undelivered. Old email? (info@morleysmuscle.com) Had some questions I wanted to ask. I suppose I could do it here, but I used to email you. Let me know.

I have a humming noise coming from shaft side of bike when I let off the gas but not when I'm accelerating somewhat sounds like a winding some like a bearing just wondering if you may know off your hand from experience what it could be thank you

Sean; Not sure how this works. I need to purchase two fork tops for my 2004 V-max. I also would like to purchase aftermarket front springs to stop brake dive. Any help would greatly help me getting my riding season back on track.
Thank You.

Hello Sean, I’m a new member. After owning two different daily riders Yamaha FJ 1100’s over the last 30 years I got a 06 Vmax last year, the bike I’ve wanted since seeing the first one on the dealer floor in 85.
I want to put progressive fork springs in.
I’m a bigger guy if that matters.
Do you have something
available and how much?

does the vmax 1700 have a flateplane or crossplane crankshaft i think i read somewhere that it had a flatplane crankshaft.

Hi Sean this is Keith from Hays, Ks. Was wanting to know if you had a new pickup coil part # 3UF-81670-00-00 for my 1991 Vmax. I think I will also need the middle cover gasket and the crankcase cover gasket to replace the pickup coil. If you have these parts what would the total cost be shipped to Hays? If you want to just call me my cell phone # is 785-656-3580. Thanks Keith

Hello I'm new on here I need some help just can't figure out how to get an answer or ask a question on this form

Hi all
I'm new to the forum.
I've just bought a nice 1989 Japanese import
After charging the battery, draining and refreshing the fuel, it started 1st time, but was very hesitant when the choke was turned off.
It stalled then would not start again.
I left it till the next day and tried again, it started 1st time, but again when warm it stalled and wouldn't start.
Have you guys any idea why?

I'm an auto tech and I really don't like working on auto ring and pinion....so I'm inclined to replace the unit.
I have a 190/50r17 rear
Would you suggest a different ratio unit?

Hi one2dmax
i own a 2004 Vmax 1200 fullpower and sadly rode it with low coolant, and overheated. Now, she's leaking coolant from the right front cylinder head, and when it's idling, will spill most of the coolant after a few minutes.
Do you have any idea what might be damaged inside the engine, what new parts i'll need and how much it will cost me to fix it?
It still starts and rides without noticing any power loss.

Did I see one the forum somewhere that you are a source for chrome intake scoops that will fit my 1986 Vmax?

Sean, you got a used fuel pump? The Pump I got for the Roadie died. I think a Max pump will fit. I'm assuming that the pumps deliver the same pressure. Any idea what that might be? I can get a 3 to 5 pound pump locally. The pump I put in wont start up, till I give it a tap with a screwdriver. It then fills the bowl, and shuts off. But it won't run to keep the bowl filled as it uses the gas, and runs out. Another tap, it starts clicking and refills the bowl. I think there is something sticking in the points in the pump. Any idea if this is repairable? Most of these pumps seem to be about the same size, it wouldn't have to be a Max pump. The pump is wired directly from the battery positive, grounded to battery negative, and controlled by a relay, switched by the ignition. I am getting good power to the relay, and the wires to pump and ground from pump to battery are PosiLock connected. Wiggling them does'nt get the pump working, so I'm thinking it definitely is a defect in the pump.

Thanks for the message. Hopefully we got you the info you were looking for in our emails. (always best to email me)
