    99 VMAX VMAX with UFO Performance Headers and Dynojet Stage 7 Jet Kit

    1999 VMAX with UFO Performance Headers and Dynojet Stage 7 Jet Kit The color in the pictures does not represent the real color. The last pic is the closest match, it is candy apple red. Very fast bike, with the UFO modifications you get the performance that the VBoost provide throughout the...

    I think I need a new clutch, any advice?

    I think I need a new clutch. Either it is slipping or the back tire is losing traction. Any advice? The bike I just purchased has the UFO exhaust and stage 7 carb kit. I suspect the previous owner(s) might have enjoyed the increased power so much the stock clutch could not handle it. Does...

    Rebuilding Clutch Slave

    Has anyone rebuilt the Clutch Slave? It seems pretty straight forward, but thought I'd asked for some expert advice from someone that has done it. Thanks, Bill

    Starter Removal

    Does anyone know how hard it is to remove the starter? I just purchased a 1999 VMax with a starter issue. I'm not sure what it is, it sounds like a bendix spring (if they have one) in the starter, but the guy I bought it from said he had the left eng side cover off so I am thinking the starter...

    Why does the 1985 VMAX has so much HP?

    Why does the 1985 VMAX has so much HP, as opposed to the later models, like the 1999 model that I have for example? Is there anything I can do to my 1999 model to increase the HP to closer to the 1985 model? Thanks, Bill

    Air Scoop "Panels" and "Screens" question

    I have a question: My 03 Vmax came without scoops. I purchased the scoops used and order new screens and panels. I was surprised to see that the right panel is solid (no air flow in) while the left pane is not (air can flow in). Does that make sense?

    Where do You Buy your Tires

    I was wondering where everyone buys their tires? I have an 03 VMAX and I'm finding that the usual place I buy tires, Tires Superstore, does not carry this size. As I search further, it seems that the 110/90-18 is a unique size (I think this is the original tire, it's a Dunlop Qualifier). Any...

    Pilot Jet Screw THread Size

    Does anyone know the size of the threads on the pilot jet screw? I had to "easy out" one on a bike I bought and the threads seem to be buggered up a little as the replacement needle jet does not screw in as far as it should. I would like to buy a tap and clean the threads out but I am not sure...

    Idle Screw Settings

    I have a 2003 VMAX and just cleaned the CARBs. I noticed that all four pilot screws were screwed all the way in. When I looked at the service manual it said they were "Preset". I thought that it was odd that they would all 4 be "preset" to all the way in, I am used to them being backed out 1-3...
