    Engine noise

    i really need to post a video of the noise but it doesn’t sound like a rod or wrist pin noise. Sounds like maybe the cam chains... tensioner perhaps? Anyone have to replace them due to noise? I’ll post a video of it soon

    Gen 1 Top speed

    I was wondering what people think the top speed is on a gen 1. I’ve read you can only get 143, but that number seems low since I’ve been a touch past that a couple times. Bone stock speeds, and slightly modified speeds are what I’m interested in. No bottle, blower, turbo etc. just the more...

    Clutch mod

    So, I was tipped to a mod for the vmax clutch. Haven’t tried it yet, but this post will hopefully sort out the pros vs cons and opinions of the mod. When installing the Barnett pressure plate and new friction discs if you’re installing those as well, you can remove the clutch boss ring, clutch...

    A slight knock

    Turned 250’ish miles yesterday. Rode relatively hard, since I was with a fellow vmax rider. On the way home, just about every light was an 1/8 mile run for us...lol. Did a lot of hard riding and high rpms... until that last light. Never fully caught the shift, and with that twist, I knew almost...

    Gen 1 backrest- grab bar?

    Is there a piece (grab bar) like that can bolt in place of the backrest when you choose not to use that? And.... if so, does anyone have one they want to get rid of? Sorry for the double post, other is in for sale instead of parts wanted. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Slow starting

    Hey guys, I’m having some trouble starting my bike. I know it sounds extremely remedial, but that’s my issue. I did extensive work this winter with wheels and fork swap. I did check valve clearance, and re painted a couple covers that needed it. Batter from last year had a dead cell so I had...

    Rim color ( black satin )

    I was wondering if any one on here has their rims painted black satin. If so, could we get a posted pic of the said color? I am leaning toward p/c for the finish on the wheels, and that was a suggestion of color I’ve been debating. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Inexpensive carb boots

    So, a few of us on here have wondered about these cheap carb boots that are offered at $20 for the set opposed to the $80+ per set of Yamaha boots. Now, sometimes I'd like to save a buck, and sometimes I'd rather pay the extra buck. But when it comes to rubber boots, how do we know unless we...

    Morgan carb sync, gone bad?

    Can these not work properly? This is why I ask. I sync my bike, and if I think works well. I let my buddy use it on his Suzuki bandit 1200 sv and he claims he runs worse when he gets them all in sync according to the tool. So he approaches it (tuning) free hand, going by sound, response and...

    Brake calipers upgrade

    I'm looking to upgrade my front brakes on my '91 Vmax. I have currently a set of 2000 R6 fronts that were given to me that do not fit. The bolt pattern is a bit longer then stock. Anyone here have '91 stock forks that has an upgrade, and if so, what are you running? Sent from my iPhone using...

    Solid mounts

    How many of you guys are running the solid motor mounts? I'm looking into getting a set, will most likely be made of delrin, and I know there has to be a little more vibration due to this. And if so, how did the guys running them lower the vibrations from the mounts...( shot in handle bars...
