No go fellas, dealer didn't want to play, shocker! They essentially refused the even trade unless I coughed up TTL, I would have for the equivalent of TTL in gear but they wouldn't budge. I'm not heartbroken..I really want an 09+, so I'm just going to hold out and try to sell mine in the spring...

Thanks Tex85, I sure hope so too, we shall see!

Thanks! Supposedly the tank holds 4.5 gallons with a range of 150ish miles. I only ride in the city and sometimes twist the wick, so I usually fill up right at 100 miles and usually put in about 3.5 gallons so the 4.5 is probably accurate, I'm just OCD about getting gas. It's a bullet proof...

Great information, much appreciated! Yeah, I need to figure something out with the price. While that price is towards the top (as expected from a dealership), my bike is worth about $2000 more so I doubt the dealer will do a trade plus cash to me, maybe riding gear but doubtful they will cough...

Hello everybody! Been watching the forum since 2007 and might be a new Vmax owner soon. I'm in the DFW Tx area, currently own an 06 VTX 1800F since 2008 and had a VStar 650 previous to that. I've found a black 06 Vmax with 7,000 miles for $6,400. Will most likely be trading my VTX in for...
