    2009 VMX17 Sale or Trade

    Very clean 2009 VMX17 VMax. It's a little heavier than I prefer, though I quite like the upright riding posture and the MONSTER motor (easily the most powerful I've had in 50+ years of extensive trading/riding). No known issues, always garage kept, good tires (rear almost brand new)/fresh fully...

    Reluctant Starter

    Is the Gen 2 VMAX known for being a little hard to start? On mine ('09, 15K) I installed Delkevic pipes (decatted), a K&N air filter, and had the ECU reflashed by Gurued Gear (he suggested the Holeshot map). As I recall, the bike was a reluctant starter even before those changes. I basically...

    Gen 2 Exhaust removal/de-cat tutorial?

    Has anyone done such a tutorial? I started pulling the exhaust on my '09 to install a Delkevic de-cat system, but I'm not sure what to do with the decat adjustment cables/motor and O2 sensor?

    Gen 2 Exhaust

    Just bought an '09. Not really looking for more power, just a somewhat throatier exhaust (not crazy loud). I was hoping I could just drill out a baffle or the like, but from what I've heard it sounds like that's not an option. Don't really have the budget for something like an Akrapovic; anybody...

    Hesitation?

    My "new" low-mileage 2009 VMAX is a rocket, except at low RPMs. Roll-on from minimal throttle and it seems to hesitate a bit, before getting its legs and charging ahead. Is this normal?

    Exhaust Mod?

    I found a drilling-out mod for the stock 1200 exhaust, but not for the 1700. Is there such a mod? Not looking for more power, just a deeper note

    Heavy Handling?

    Just bought my 1st VMAX; a very clean 2009 1700 with 14,500 miles. Love the motor, but the handling is weird. The rear tire is a mostly new ME880, and the front is a mostly worn-out ME880. The tire pressures were low, especially the front at ~15 lbs (I brought them both up to proper pressure...
